MrMeanGreen Posted January 2, 2009 Report Share Posted January 2, 2009 (edited) Pics from the event today. I'll follow up with an in-truck vid once I get it to YouTube and my times EDIT: YouTube vid The track when we first got there at 1030 this morning.

MrMeanGreen Posted January 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2009 Staging and running later in the afternoon after everything melted. http://www.cr-h.net/pics/mini-d42ny09%20010.jpg http://www.cr-h.net/pics/mini-d42ny09%20011.jpg http://www.cr-h.net/pics/mini-d42ny09%20012.jpg This was the first elimination pass, which I'd been running in the 20s all day with 4.x and 5.1 60' times in 4WD. I tried to brake near the end of this run knowing I had better traction, but the other guy broke out slower than me by 3/10. http://www.cr-h.net/pics/mini-d42ny09%20015.jpg My passes for the day: 21.41@80.54, 4.60 60' 23.60@78.27, 5.14 60' 21.42@78.81, 4.39 60' 22.32@78.27, 4.27 60' 22.45@78.26, 4.45 60' 20.64@79.63, 4.26 60' 17.79@69.29, 2.96 60' http://www.cr-h.net/pics/mini-d42ny09%200015.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrMeanGreen Posted January 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2009 Not Brian said: lawl Tina lost to a ranger? were there any other non-trucks there? She lost because he went slower than her, although they both broke out. There was a TON of non-truck vehicles there. I saw a GTP, SRT-4, some 50s-60s cars. the turbo Miata, F-Bodies, etc. They had two classes for the race, Awd/4WD and 2WD. There were four lines in the staging lanes for the 2WD class versus the two lines for AWD/4WD. CRAWDAD said: laughing @ the kid in the video! "Where gonna beat that guy!" My six and eight year old. They love track days. prettyprix said: I'll probably have some pictures to put up soon, I wish i have a video of my friend in the miata. Scott and I were cracking up at that car when he made his first pass. Traction escaped the Miata Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GonneVille Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 Damn, wish I'd realized how many of you showed up! I saw Anthony, ran against him on my second run(big white crew cab Ford)but never had a chance to catch up to him again. I was out with my buddy Peter(petraman). Our fourth run, Peter driving, 2WD...I'm not sure he's ever driven RWD on anything other than dry road before. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qsv4nfjJx-A BTW, did anybody else give the timing booth guy a heart attack? That big sheet of ice in front of it made my rear end slide over towards it every time I pulled away...lulz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
