Default hola folks!

nice meeting some of you...

there's one guy that i didn't have to to chat w/ because we were having our last download session and i was running late.

anyways... great folks... and once that track gets bigger i'll be up there more often.

Hi Joseph, glad you joined!

Your car looked great on the track in the hpde, represented well! Maybe next year (if not before), you'll see some of us joining you out there.

I need to do the MSF and buy a motorcycle before I track my car... if something should happen, I'll need transportation...

I'm actually a little afraid that if I track my car, I'll like it so much, I'll bankrupt myself building a dedicated track car... maybe I should start looking for a second job now.

BTW: SECCS has "teh cool" now! Gary Sheehan and Suby Dude are members!

Hey Suby Dude,

Sorry I had to leave right away last Saturday, that I didn't get the chance to chat. I saw you tearing down the road course though. Great job! Maybe in the next NASA event, I'll see you again.

Oops, that was me.
I got a call from my cousin and he needed help with his car.
I had to head back to Reno.
Next time, I guess.

Link has a briefing of what it takes. SD probably has some additional feedback as well.
(When I've done track events the extras that Dean pointed out for me were upgraded brake pads/brake fluid; and for more grip I ran on kuhmos.)
