TC 914-8
Mar 15 2009, 12:17 PM
Hey, I'll get the thread back on topic,
It snowed all morning and is starting to let up, nothing is sticking. The satelite shows clear skies ahead, and the sun is peeking thru.
Figure an hour or so you East Sound guys should see the same.
I lied it's starting to snow again.
That's the report from Sequim ( Skwim for Greenie)

In road racing, if one corner stand can not see the other, they deem the conditions unsafe for racing. I tend to agree with that one. When the snow let up, it was too late in the day to continue racing.

Snow, hail, rain, high winds.
Laying on the concrete garage floor all day that is about 20 degrees colder than the air temp. Great fun.

I had to run and pick my parents up at the airport. It would apear they have not heard of shuttle express
.
Curt and I got two coats on and loking good. Just need to wait for the kids to go to bed before I head back out and get a little higher.
By the way. It would seem as though Curt is a little bit of a perfectionist.... in case you didn't know.

Rally racing is where it is at, but have you seen the drop off from turn 6 at Seattle?
LOL
Pacific Raceways already looks like an only Gruppe B rally stage with rutty pavement and lots of Trees to hit! AND if you really try, you could clear the tire barrier and tumble the 250 feet on to the train tracks below. oh, those big green things are called trees!
With a wrx sti I would say hell yeah! Not in a rear wheel drive BMW...

Yes, we are looking at the 3b turn station, and the lead BMW in this photo is technically in Turn 4, also know as the back straight. I didnt find good pix to steal to illustrate turn 6 and the tyre wall drop off from that day. But those of us who know that track, know that 5 5b and 6 are a tricky bit in the dry, in the wet it is dangerous and in the snow it is nearly suicidal!
The girl I was instructing on Saturday thought it was fun in her Sentra in the snow, so I guess I am just a big sissy....

I used to dive with a guy who fought full contact, and he had a match with Chuck Norris when Norris was about 15-20 years older than him and he said anyone who thinks he's a pussy should step into the ring with him....said it was a bad beating he took and still lost....and my buddy was in shape and a good fighter by all accounts....dead now, poor bastard, shallow water blackout got him in So-Cal channel islands about 8 years ago.

FYI: the de-icer DOT puts on the roads...not good for aluminum parts, rims, etc. (lots of pitting) It will also do wonders for your brake seals too! I personally wouldn't drive on the stuff in a 914 until it is NO longer being applied by DOT.
