    Thanks Howie, it was great to finally meet you. I had a blast today, thank god I left when I did. On the way home I was too tired to visit Tony, so I headed home for some rest. I fell asleep for about 90 minutes. How did you and Joel fare against those Porsches?

    Very clear and stable. I gotta check my camera it seemed video was more jerky than last outing. Seems like maybe you need to zoom out more, but maybe best you can get with your camera mounted so far back.

    I can only log Trans Temp, F-Bodies do not log Oil Pressure nor Oil Temp. My trans got up to a high of 207 degrees. That is an insane MPH!

    I think that guy ruined a nice Rivera under that lawn.

    If that was my car I would of put in pop up sprinklers.

    PS: you have way too much time on your hands

    And what do you think of George. I think he did great with that Camero. Thats the exact same car I had before the Vette.

    Yep George is coming on strong. Give him a few more laps and he might start knocking on your door. (Well he might have to put down a few more ponies first... )

    I just HAD to have a bit of fun with ya though DH! LOL
    And yep he did ruin a perfectly good Riv. Rainbird sprinklers it is then!

    George

    My car is making wierd noises and I don't know what it is. I can't get my car in till monday to have it checked out.

    But I am going to SOW anyways on Sunday. So far me and a buddy are the only two Vettes going. There may be a couple others I know. We are going to start in Intermediate since we don't know the track and then maybe move up to Advanced Video will be available of course

    Wish me luck that I don't blow up my engine

    Just call me when things settle down......
