Most times there are a few loaner helmets floating around ^^


I'd like to head out to one of these in the laser, they're a LOT of fun but my current tune is making the stock turbo a little on the laggy side. I will definately like to hit up at least a few once I get some fuel out and a clutch in. Hell, still might go regardless.

Are they always on sundays?
It whistles while it WORKS.

I suck.

Nope as long as you have your helmet your cool. Don't forget to clean out any extra shit in your car that is laying around, it will go EVERYWHERE.

Yes it was a good time. I spoke with David for a minute, never met him before. Glad to see you came out man!

Cody and myself also went out along with Hillie of course, and all his brothers. It was their first time and they loved it! Cody did as well and will be returning. It really is a great time, a few people bitched out but that is to be expected.

Hillie is the fucking man and came in 3rd place over all out of 50. A black EVO took the crown of first, and a Blue WRX came in second.

I learned a good deal today, I ended up running very consistent times towards the end. I was basically stuck in a range. My car needs some more suspension work other than Ver 7 STI shocks/springs, along with stickier tires like Justin uses. I might have to get a set of sways, the car really pushes hard on the edge, its very tough to keep it flat.

Heres the pics.

This is proof that if you do it, you'll be hooked. Just gotta man up.
I enjoyed seeing both of my brothers out there trying it for the first time haha. I'm glad you guys came.

thanks cory..ahhh .4 seconds away from fastest time of the day and hundredths of a second away from the 2nd fastest...I'm pleased considering I'm driving a 35 year old car with just a set of stickys.

Next time I expect more of you to come!

I knew I would enjoy this, one of the best $20 I have ever spent.

I didn't anticipate all those 944's though. I was hoping to see more '80's era 911 variants. :(

Damn Justin, after watching that video I see a few lines I wish I would have changed a little bit to make my runs smoother. It could be your car just making it look easy, or it really could be my shittier lines. I'm going towards the latter. Maybe I coulda taken another second off. Thanks for posting that up.

I like that they have a covered area there. I'm used to frying in the sun at Beaverun between my runs. Oh and when is Dave going to not be a sissy and go to one of these? Oh that's right, he's all show and no go.
