I'm so terrible excited for this, it's not even funny.
80 km's in a kart? This is gonna be stupidly fun. I've never driven these ones before, I'm pretty pumped. |

PM box is full btw |

LOL, that could be why I'm not getting PMs! I just cleared it.
Just bring your money the day of. We'll meet up at the Manning Timmy's at about 5, have a bite then cruise to Stratotech.
Ryan you know the way 'pros' do it is they have it matted the whole time - you are strictly forbidden to use your brakes! :blue: |

So what do we need to bring for this? Helments? Full onesies leather suits? ;) Or do they supply everything.

You need a full face for sure. You don't want to be eating what the karts in front of you are throwing. |

OK so my alternator died in my truck, I just bought a new bike but I can't get insurance on it until monday, so until then I have no way around :mad:
Anybody going to be heading there from the south side that I could get a ride with? I'll give gas money if anybody is willing to pick me up on their way. |

Yeah ... don't forget to bring $100. Maybe $6 in case taxes.
Helmets with face shields if you got 'em. If not, they have them. |
|
|
| beeb |
K sounds good, I have an extra noggin holder.. ill bring it..
I actually have two.. but one is a girls :P |

Shouldn't be a problem, I've gone out to watch bike track days fairly often.
If anybody wants to go out on the inside of the track to take pics, just talk to somebody at the track, cause you'll have to wear a bright yellow vest.. |
|
|
| NisHo |
If you bring friends to watch they may be able to run, so have them bring the money just in case.
When the group gets over 15 they make you run in separate groups, and since we're running at 6 and it closes at 8 that just means some people would get the shaft. The most allowed on the track at one time is between 10 and 15.
There might be an extra spot or two once we get out there, but I can't promise. |
|
|
| shorti |
I'm getting really excited
only a few hours left!!! |
|
|
| NisHo |
| actually only one hour fifteen minutes before people who live downtown or farther south should leave their houses and head to timmy's! |
|

| jesus you must get GOOD weed. |

That was awesome, we'll have to do it again sometime.

i need to lose some weight! |

| Kevin kept saying how weird the STI felt after driving the Kart lol |

haha shit wish i could have came
sounded like you guys had a good time
i'll be out next time for sure |
|

lol yeah my steering felt sloppy as fuck on the way home.
Great times, I aswell need to lose some weight :) Getting passed on the straights sucks my balls. |

THAT WAS UNREAL!!
my sides hurt, my hands hurt.. hell i have bits of rubber on my face and in my shirt
that rhymed..
ha ha ha
moral of the story....
two hours of driving flat out on somthing hardly bigger than a coffee table is one of the funnest things you will ever do
when are we going again
SIGN ME UP!!!
ps.. being taken out in EVERY race sucks balls....
and i have hay in my sweater.. |

I just got home now (11:10) and it's my first time relaxing. I'm in pain. My arms, chest, neck, back, and it feels GREAT!
That was a riot indeed, and well worth the $100.
We were all too busy to snap shots of the actual cars, or us wearing our hats huh? hah.
AFter leaving the track, I found myself pushing my car WAY harder and to limits never before reached, because "what's the worst that can happen, a spin out" was my mentality. Fortunately, my car's still in one piece.
The sloppy steering FTW, the comfy SEATS FTMFW and the damned fun gained... hooah!
Great idea!

Are the carts there bigger than the carts at Whytemud?
I drove the "fast carts" at whytemud last summer and it sucked cause I was too big for the cart. |

My steering was pretty nice on the way home ... it's a mini. 1.5 rotations. Other than that, totally with you. I just soaked in some epsom salts. You can't do that, because you're all male, so you'll still be sorry tomorrow and I won't. :D
Once again, I applaud everyone who attended in their excellent avoidance skills. I thought I was done for sure. |

My personal favorite from the night
But I'm so curious as to:

anybody got any more pictures?
love it |

| Fuck, my wheels look so gay. |

It's now 12:21 and the flat deck just dropped my car off at home. I thought it could make it with the bad alternator, guess not. We had to wait 3 hours for a flat deck :confused: AMA.
Anyhoo my g/f got some camera phone pics that I'll try and get tomorrow. I especially like the picture of me being chased by 4 other carts. :)
But ya where the hell do I start?
Holy fuck that was fun, we had our own mini version of Days of Thunder, bump to pass, bump cause the warm up lap was too slow, bump cause it's fun. :D
I was just so awesome how 9 carts are all barreling into a corner all at the same time and no one had the courtesy to let up. Grass, hay and rocks flying everywhere.
Oh and I'll never forget the look of sheer terror in NisHo's eyes when 8 carts are trying to dodge her. :lol: |

Oh that sucks man, whats with all the alternators dying now? I had the same thing happen to my truck 2 days ago :p Tried to make it home, alternator wasn't having any of that.
I wish somebody could have got a pic of me flying sideways through the grass onto the straight, after taking out somebody else haha
Oh yeah, Karen had a big "deer in the headlights" look there, scared the crap out of me lol, good thing a couple of us had fast reactions or that could have ended badly.
The whole bump passing thing was pretty good, me and Aaron were locked side by side for a while there until I managed to cut in front on turn 5, bastard tried to push me into the grass but I just pushed back lol
edit: nice photochop haha |

holy fuck you have mad photshop skills!!! RED BULL!
Here is a 10 meg video, sorry only footage is really the NSX and three STis (I can't complain). I thought it included some Charger (when he's taking that pic of me, actually) but I guess it's late and I shat the bed. Also forgot to export framebased so there's horizontal lines ...

A few more laps on the third race and I would have caught you two in front. You are my nemesis Ryan -_- |
