Had to get one started...

1 - I want a Mini! (thanx for the fun run Daniel)
2- I don't always get beat in my own car...
3- Boosted Miatas are everywhere (4 of them today dammit!)
4- I bet a carbon roof for a S2K isn't cheap!
5- First time I've ever seen anyone actually register under their porn name
6- Apparently I'm not too hard on tires, my 710's have 125 runs on 'em and counting... guess I need to go faster!
7- Local events rock, I love not changing tires



Congrats to Paul K. and good old Ken Glenside for the 1-2 finish.

Thanks to everyone for coming out. We had just about 70 cars and got in 6 runs plus some fun runs.

I finally get to do one of these...

1- having boosted a miata doesn't means much...
2- being the slowest boosted miata sucks...
3- being on the same tire as Paul K took away the only excuse I can think of...
4- a civic that doesn't has vtec and its a 4dr can still beat a boosted miata!!(there goes another excuse...)
5- There can be more Mugen parts on a S2k then Hondas...

It was a great event. Thanks to everyone who's helped to make it happen!!

That one pesky boosted Miata (Ryan) just jumped in front of my little non-vtec sedan on the last run. I was hoping I'd stay in 5th place by my co-worker Brian in the ITR and Ryan pulled it out.

I love you too Todd ;)

I too was on 100+ run V710s.....but I don't think anyone can use a tire excuse since FTD was set on V700s! I might have been closer on the 13s tho......

Kudos to TLMC for a very well run event! Any chance you could convince Molson to re-pave the lot? And get me some driving lessons? :D

And get me some driving lessons? :D

mm... you are fast enuff as is, any faster you will be flying...

why would one want to get any faster when he's doing so well already??

unless you are comparing yourself to a pornstar!! and you should know that you should not be able to beat a pornstar in all areas... thats why they are pornstar!! ;)

The city now owns the lot. Don't look for them to pave it.

1. I learnt a lot from Andrew C. & Matt B. Thanks again.

Non regional events are great, I can finish top 20 with mediocre driving. :o

How many MR2's with how many drivers :confused: :confused:

Daniel is fast in any car, but his front wheels are suffering the wrath of him not being able to control his lead foot.

I really have to try a RWD car soon, I know I cant do FWD very well and if I can do RWD then its AWD 4 LIFE :p

Again great event put on by TLMC.

Great event. Nice lot too. It was my first time out to Barrie - good stuff! Not sure I follow the classing system though.

Props to Pete for fixing my toe-in issues. Even though I went slower after screwing with it... the car did turn in much better after the adjustments.

V700's still rock (remember when they were the sh*t to have??? the K6A compound was the bomb until the 710's came out) Mine are 2 years and 200 laps old and still look and drive great.

The red one light one was 5
The other red (mint) one was 2
My white one was 3 including myself.
(I think there were 3 in the turbo)
I must appologize for being late, we wanted to space our numbers, unforseen problems came up, and unfortunitly we ended up with numbers fairly close togeather.

I really have to try a RWD car soon, I know I cant do FWD very well and if I can do RWD then its AWD 4 LIFE :p
Try my mid rear next time, for the fun run :)
Im sure if I tried an AWD I just may NV it heh.
