gbracing81 Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 You right he is an ass he tried to pass blame to the cars that break, I told him how I felt at Spring swap meet he was not happy, but I don't care. He needed to know, and he was not responding to email. I had an email the next day, so he cares a little bit but not much.. Everyone should just flood his inbox asking him why he is the GM when he won't quit An even better question for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbracing81 Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 You know, it truely is sad about Trails. It is really a good track. The facility as a whole isn't terrible but its not good either. You know what I mean? We are fortunate to have a place like Trails to go and get our speed on that isn't a total hole in the ground and I think that plays a little into why Jim won't put the right effort forward into making a great place to go. I think Chris has a true passion for the place and maybe if he was the Operations Manager things would greatly improve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaddyBuiltRacing Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 oh and tell your buddy with the V6 stang i said thanks for pulling a .500 light and handing me the first round win lol. Haha you're welcome. That was only his 2nd time ever at the track, I can't believe he passed tech honestly. He has a huge crack on his windshield on the drivers side, in his line of view, yet they passed him lol The dude that runs the lanes needs to be fired, he is a total asshole. If you are on here, you're a fuckhead! He is never friendly, always seems like he doesn't want to be there ect... The track prepping or lack there of is terrible, its honestly part of the reason I don't get to upset with the times I run out there. I go to trails because its a 10-15minute drive for me, if it was longer then that I wouldn't even bother. My biggest complaint with Trails is the pit area, next time you drive through there take your hand off the wheel and see how bumpy that shit is lol. Trails has that Friday Night "Street Fight" bullshit but it doesn't do anything for me as a racer/spectator. I agree that a heads up event such as Thursday Night Lights would be a big success at trails. Its pretty sad that I am planning on doing my test & tuning for Norwalk out at Pacemakers...

DaddyBuiltRacing Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 ^^ And thats part of the reason Trails has a bad rep. You should treat the small time guy the exact same as the big time guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMustangStampede Posted May 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 Billy Rowe is his name. If you're not a big time hard core racer then you don't didly to him. Yep, hats him he was being an ass an Friday night, he was acting like he couldn't hear me even though I was standing right in front of him. There was no noise up there everything was standing still, cause they were doing something on the track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be sad for test and tune at Pacemakers, once you get the first 1/8th out of the way not a whole lot left to mess up with, keep that bitch to the floor and hit one more gear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaddyBuiltRacing Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 I haven't been to pacemakers since I was probablly 12 years old (15 years ago) with my Dad in his Challenger. I am actually going to Trails on Wednesday to do some T&T lol, as I said its 10mins from my shop so kinda hard to say no to it. I will be in a 4dr Integra with exhaust coming up out the hood, stop over and say hello, I promise I won't bite. We are gonna be playing with tire pressure, launch rpm's and my boost by gear settings plus playing around with a new Hondata feature that should help us spool the turbo a whole helluva lot quicker.

DaddyBuiltRacing Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 Anyone going tomorrow? Gonna go do 2-3 passes just to make sure all bugs are worked out before heading to Norwalk this weekend and see if we can go faster then last weeks 11.5. Might have new suspension on before hand so would like to get a chance to mess with that as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaddyBuiltRacing Posted June 21, 2012 Report Share Posted June 21, 2012 Nope, taking few weeks off to give the car a break. No sense in beating the shit out of it just to see a 10.99 when we are turning the boost up and adding race gas in less then 2 weeks, hell with 10.99, give me 10.49s and faster please!

gbracing81 Posted June 21, 2012 Report Share Posted June 21, 2012 I went last night. The track was hot and slick. Car ran well once it got past the 60 foot mark. Best I could muster was 1.57 and my usual is around 1.47-1.49. Here's a vid of a time trial. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
