Havent been on in a week or so......

Since that time, a few developements have come about.

1. I sold my car to a guy in sacramento. So now i am in the market for a new car....evo? I think so.

2. I am currently in MI for a car and driver supercar shoot out. Since i now work for vishnu, i brought the shop car out here with my co-worker brett, where we met up with shiv, brian, and paul (our driver) for this supercar event. The event finished up yesterday, but i had a great time. All of the guys at car and driver are just awesome. Some of the most informed car guys i have ever met. Suprise suprise! It was great to also hang out with some of the other tuners around the country. The hennessy guys, the renntec guys, and lingenfelter crew were all really cool guy, along with the guys from active autowerks.

All in all we didnt do too bad at the event, although we were a bit disapointed. We had an intercooler hose that just didnt want to stay on, so we actualy only completed 2 full runs out of 5. As an insult to injury, one of those runs was thrown out because paul only hit 149.7 mph, not 150. Anyways, we held the class lead by a good margin for quite some time, until the mallett 800 hp caddy took its last run, and edged us out by 2 tenths of a sec. I am 99% possitive we would have beat them on our return run if the IC hose didnt pop off 100 yards from the finish point. So this is what we were left with....

-Best 0-60 time overall (3.35 secs)
-Best road course time in class (3rd best over all?)
-best quartermile in class (11.59 secs, which was a 3 way tie with a 800 hp twin turbo z06, and a twin turbo viper for third place overall.)


Overall, we were left with 2nd in class, and 6th overall. Not too bad for the only 4 banger, i guess. Some of the cars we went up against were simply amazing. From the Gallardo to the twin turbo vette, to the winning twin turbo viper, its amazing to see these cars in action.

Hooters meet in a week or so when i get back?!

Hey Dusty,

[jesseahhstyle]

STI STI STI STI STI STI STI STI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Evo's are sweet too! But i've been diggin the sound of the scooby motor! Sounds freaking grunty and all that good stuff!

Congrads on the new job, you get out of the house painting, I take it? What do you do with the new job, Sounds like it would be a ton of fun racing and helping with that!

STIs are teh suck. The motors are kinda weak on them...we have already seen 2 blow up. I will still go drive one anyway.

Our shop car is basicly the same as a stage 3 s4 in terms of upgrading price.... Turbo injectors, manifold, exhaust, ported head. The bottom end of the motor is still stock actualy.

At my new job i basicly just do whatever.... I answer phones, take orders, box and ship stuff, load cars on the dyno, call vendors for different parts we need. Its a good time, but it gets crazy when we get big shipments of parts and what not.
