RASCAR: Atlanta

Well, Atlanta is a past race by now and the grubbat dodge didn't have anything to show for it. The engine blew while coasting around in 4th during a yellow flag. Weirdest thing I have ever had with my dodge. Don't know yet who won, but did stay to see some wrecks. I wont comment on them cause Jan will do it later when he get caught up. Someone post how their race went. I know that ole redneck bluestringer dropped a valve at the beginning of the race, (he called me a redneck first), somebody got rearended on one of the restarts, someone warped and caused a mess, and a bunch of us on teamspeak were just a yapping cause we didn't have no car to drive. See yall next week. grub

well I drifted up into Mitch, apologies for that, glad it did not end his race. My race ended thanks to a delayed reaction on my part. I ran a lot on the open servers practicing for this race, and managed to dodge the worst the papy servers could throw at me. Blew it in the race though. Choked. Just plain choked.

Yep, my collar is blue, my hair is white, and my neck's always been red. Grub, same thing happened to me. I was just pacing around about 50mph under yellow, and the engine goes kapow. I gotta have a talk with the engine department. It was fun just watching and yapping, but not as much fun as turning laps. bluestringer

Well, Marco64 had joined me for last night and we swapped seats under yellow a couple of times (but luckily did not cause more than one ourselves ;-). It was really nice being able to talk to you over TeamSpeak. Mitch, if Ed needs help with the website tell him to contact me at the address in the signature.

Miller Lite Dodge was fast on new tires and crap after 10 laps. Goodyear really needs to goto a softer tire and get rid of the aero-push. We dodged alot of wrecks and only got dinged a couple times, managed to get into the Top 10. Then with 2 to go, Fernando tne rascar new guy passed me, so I got 11th. Great racing ya! See ya. Tim

NP Jon it happens. Just curious what your thought process was at that point? We weren't to halfway and I wasnt really fightin ya at all. I really just lucked out my car wasnt totaled, I did have damage that cost me 2-3 mph. Just enough to not be competitive :( Still managed 6th though so it didnt bother me too much. Im more concerned of patterns developing than an occasional tap.

Youre exactly correct regarding the #67. Without making it entirely public the offender has offered a reason and promised not to let it happen again. I feel good that it won't :-) Mitch "> "jon" <[email hidden]> wrote in message > news:1jznb.87407$[email hidden]... > > > "please dont let me fuck up, please don't let me fuck up, please don'tlet

Speaking of which, the setup is a *** to drive. What times are people running so far? MS

See my post above, N2k3: Phoenix..... I can run low 30.0xx even a rare 29.x but as soon as I try to push it I spin going into three. If I try to carry any speed into that corner I have to take it high and lose any speed advantage on lap times. I don't think running a half groove high in 1 and 2 hurts times nearly as much. Sean

Nasty! Dad's an old fart, Jan, therein lies the problem. Also, having a boy of nearly 13 certainly leaves its marks. ;-) Cheers, uwe -- mail replies to Uwe at schuerkamp dot de ( yahoo address is spambox) Uwe Schuerkamp //////////////////////////// http://www.schuerkamp.de/ Herford, Germany \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ (52.0N/8.5E) GPG Fingerprint: 2E 13 20 22 9A 3F 63 7F 67 6F E9 B1 A8 36 A4 61

Shawn, I was running low 29's (29.2's and 29.1's) and I absolutely, totally got my Ass handed to me. I _thought_ I was fast going in there. There were guys in there running mid 28's ! Screw flat tracks. I say chop em' all up. And toss in Darlington while you're at it :) -Larry "McWhom" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...
