I used to have a 93 ranger with that wierd double spark plug/coil thing? I guess it was supposed to be more fuel economical or sumthing?

[SSmike1]

to who did he tell you to tell you that to who?

[SSmike1]

Its only 2 days away!!!!!!!
I will be driving on Road America
for 3, yes THREE whole days!


you can too!

[JRink]

Wow, Friday was fun. Pity my rotors warped by the end of the day preventing me from running today too, grr. Hell of a time!! A+ for NASA! Had an awesome instructor too (Wage Gagrich) who cured me of a few bad habits...

Jesse

[SSmike1]

I had an awesome time too!

i went fast, and stayed on the track.
i did a best of 2:41.2 with a Stock SS Camaro!!!!!!!

AND YES

NASA = # 1, A+

I will join them!!!!!!

[JRink]

You did a 2:41 with a STOCK camaro? Whaaaaaa??

[GTSLOW]

What are average times for ra?

I've never really timed myself or anyone else.

You did a 2:41 with a STOCK camaro? Whaaaaaa??

Its all in the hawk pads

[JRink]

I think "average" is in low 3's (for HPDE1 and 2). ?? High 2's for HPDE3 and 4?? Just a hunch.

Considering, the FASTEST HPDE time the WHOLE weekend was 2:31 by Damien in his RX-7, 2:41 in a STOCK SS seems umm.. well. you serious? lol. NOT calling it bogus or anything, but man... That's just incredible if it's true, wow. Must be some good driving. Kudos.

Jesse

[SSmike1]

Yes sir Serious!
i am in the TT series, Time Trial series,

Class = C which is Stock SS Camaro,

and i had a transponder on my car, so i have the time sheets to prove it!


I did not see Damian on the time sheets, so he was not useing a transponder. so how does he know his times?

Now Bruce in the 2000 cobra R, did a 2:38 with his transponder.

YES, most people & cars are in the 3:05 to 3:15 range,
with the faster HPDE 4 & TT drivers getting into the 2:50's.

The guys with the High HP ZO6's & such, Prolly could go into 2:40's
with more practice.



Thanks for the Kudos, Jesse

[JRink]

Lawrence sent out an email this morning with the fastest times of the weekend that's how I know.

Hmm well, I guess you're just a tad (heh) more skilled than the typical HPDE driver is (or is it balls?). I thought you ran in HPDE 3 or 4 or something, didn't know you do NASA Time Trial events. Isn't that "big time"? LOL. I haven't even begun looking at that stuff yet. You obviously have lots of track expereince then I'm assuming. 2:41 in a stock car, lol, I still can't get over that.

Hey Mike. I'd like to PM you about a quirk with my car. I need a knowledgable road-racing guy to help me diagnose something in my suspension. Do you mind if I run it by you?

Jesse

Mike I talked to Damian before the motor went poof. He had his own personal timing equipment and he already hit that time.

Still great times though, I see you beat your time that we seen. Good Job.

Well I'm sure the pilot sports and hawk pads help So it's not a TRUE "stock SS Camaro!!!!!!"

[JRink]

Umm, Damien's motor went poof?

[SSmike1]

Diga-Diga
yes it has Front Race Pads, (carbotech XP8's), and very used Toyo Proxy RA1's,
BUT, otherwise it is STOCK.

YES, damiam blew the motor! Bummer=

[SSmike1]

AHH
Damian must have a Hot Lap Timer?

yes, Dan, i showed you my 2:42 lap time sheet.

Now i have a 2:41 Time sheet!!!!!!!

WOW those things have a 100 rating treadwear!

The Toyo® Proxes RA-1, a DOT-approved competition tire designed specifically for improved touring racing and autocross.

I'm sure those would bump you up a class in your racing legue.


btw whos damiam and what kinda car was it?
