  1. Boy, "curbing" on race tracks was quite different then. Beetles do really well in rollovers assuming you're wearing a seat belt.
  2. Remind me and I'll bring the money to the gym next Sat.
  3. Bobby boy, the 9mm ammo you're selling brass? If so ill take a couple boxes.
  4. CZ makes a nice .22 conversion for their 75 and 85 models. Spendy, but you could have a .22 for her and a 9mm for you in one frame
  5. http://www.homedepot.com/p/Grease-Bully-Black-Nitrile-Gloves-10045/202754606#.UUxTnYy9KSM I usually buy a box of these at JEGS when I'm down there. Ironically my local Home Depot doesn't seem to have them. They're thin enough that I can still feel things but thick enough they can take a decent beating and you can reuse them if you don't tear them. I like these more than other nitrile gloves I've tried.
  6. I think you're right that it's Alonso with the best chance to topple Vettel. I would like to see a change in the title this year but also hate Alonso...so I'm torn there. I think everyone agrees that having Kimi back is entertaining and we'd love to see a few wins out of him. It'll be interesting to see what McLaren does and how the car works. Button is still a great driver and his ability to take car of the car and tires really suits today's racing strategy. Perez has consistently surprised people since showing up in F1 so he could prove an interesting force as well.
  7. Aside from possibly the van in the 2nd scene the rest look like crappy attempts at insurance fraud.
  8. Good to hear the pieces fit well I've always liked that diffuser. If you're looking at Advan XD-9s then you likely won't be able to do big brakes with them (in offsets that look good). I have Wilwood fronts and there was no way they were going to fit with them.
  9. Shine pieces I'm assuming? How hard was the install/fitting? Looks good.
  10. 335 looks nice. Welcome to the site.
  11. I was surprised they were trying for just 75 drivers in the first place because I figured they'd make about $50 on the whole deal. Mid Ohio isn't cheap to rent so I'd not be mad at them for trying to make some money for their efforts. We'll still get lots of time and less entries all for less money than most other organizations out there. Now when they go to charge the same thing next year for 150 entries...then we rage..hahaha
  12. I'm not as upset about the PDK but the 20" center-lock wheels are the failure on that car. Nothing like buying a new car built for the track only to have to do a five lug swap and all associated parts in order to be able to track it.
  13. Sorry to hear about that. I bought a Hero3 silver and haven't done much other than the initial setup and playing around with the phone app (which is sweet BTW, check it out if you haven't). Hopefully I won't have any troubles this spring when I go to use it regularly.
  14. i'll sell you my old dodge truck for $500 come springtime. It goes just great on the highway.
  15. I'm trying to figure out if my DSM logger program still works for my palm, but I know I have the interface cable if someone would be interested in that as well.
  16. I agree that 100 drivers in 3 groups would be no problem. You'd be surprised how many cars can spread out and share the track there at once.
  17. Yeah I'm pretty sure it's the typical point to pass in 4 sections even for Advanced. No open passing.
  18. Not that ill ever complain about an event with plenty of open groups, but you could easily allow 100 drivers and still have plenty of space in the run groups. Hell I was at one PCA event last year where they had 195 drivers! That crap was sure crowded but the event ran surprisingly well.
  19. Bumping this up. I backed this and would love to see it produced.
  20. Bob you can shoot my 1911 if you want.
