First up, in Run
Group #3, was Jommel in his gutted Civic EG hatchback. He put down some pretty
respectable times, while greatly decreasing his time each run. I had the grand
opportunity to ride in his car during a fun run, and am pleased to say that it
felt quite impressive with the weight reduction and rear sway bar. Great job
bro, and we can't wait to see how our hatch runs with the T1R setup you have
planned for the future!
Christian and I then
gridded up in Run Group #4 with his race ready 240SX and my "Odyssey"
(as Jommel so dubbed it!) Christian got me pretty nervous since his times were
only a few tenths of a second off mine! Although he wasn't pushing it too hard,
(I'm a little scared after he told me that!) his car kicked some serious ass. I
wish he would have been able to do some fun runs, because I'm positive he could
have dipped into the 59s if he wanted to. (A few wiring problems prevented
this) :(
Lastly, Joseph
surprised us the most! While he put down some EXCELLENT times during Run Group
#6, besting at a 65.408, he blew everybody out of the water when he threw down
a 63.300 during fun runs. Let's remember that his Miata is completely stock,
and riding on Fuzion HRi tires! Damn, son!
;D I have to note that it was fun to watch him stomp on the modified
Mustangs and Camaros in his run group.
After everbody's run,
we all headed to Jommel's place, shot some pool, played some ping pong, and
pigged out on some great food. Thanks man! Highlights of the night included
Joseph's failed bunny hop on the bicycle, and Christian's amazing wheelie.
(Really wish we caught that on video) :D
First one up!
Lil' topheavy!
240SX power!
The after party!
