Unfortunately this clashes with the Meguiar Detailing Clinic date Mike-in-Orange is setting up.

 

Yes, bummer that.

 

no problem fellas... there's always a next time...

 

Sharing some hi-res pics to anyone interested.

EDIT: I guess, i can't share since i just got an error message. Oh well...

Good times at the track! Weather was clear but cold, well freezing with the top down. Rented a transponder for extra motivation.

Day was uneventful for other than for two off-roading incidents, one doing a full-on dukes of hazzard move after taking a turn on a closed turn and launching off to the dirt and gravel ahead of me. First thing on my mind wasn't i'm gonna roll over and die, it was "oh ****, there goes my new rims". :-)

Best time 1:37.25 with white group with passing on straights only and only with point bys. Top speed is 117 mph on straight by the pits.

Might be back on SOW CCW Jan 6th for anyone interested. Also thinking of renting out the track and splitting the costs. Let me know if anyone is interested.


SRT6 #111

 

Hernan... I'll try for the January date if I can get the new engine / electronics installed and tuned by then... I definately need some track time before the beginning of the NASA season... It's going to be a very different car with so much more HP and will take some getting used to...

 

Looking forward to seeing that beast. You know which class you'll get bumped up to yet?

 

I don't... I e-mailed Greg and told him that I did an engine transplant and needed to have the car re-classed before the beginning on next season (2-09-08) He has not gotten back to me yet... I'm thinking it will be in TTB or TTA (Time Trials) and PTB or PTA (Race Class)...

 

Nice you got to love autocross with the top down, looking tight!
I have to say I never was wild about the convertable base crossfire but the SRT6 really pulls it off nicely, somehow the rear wing really cleans up the lines on the vert.
