Well look at FAST getting all media savvy on Facebook now. Here is an expletive free run if you are looking for more to post.

Re: Jan 16 FAST Open - Post-Event Discussion

Watching Joe's run reminded me just how much I loved the sound of that S54 engine.

Rather than posting my fastest competition run I'd rather post 2 videos for comparison, input and observation since I'm still in massive learning mode. First video is Drew's run in my car, the second video is my ...

Re: Jan 16 - FAST Open @ Brooksville

Doug the honeymoon is still is in full effect with the FRS, but I am tempted to be tempted.......

I had shaky knees at the thought of the Cayman S in the new S0 class. Lions, Tigers and Z06's and all that.

It is so nice to have that extra "Mississippi" between cones to gather yourself. Us ...

Re: Sept 13 - FAST Open at Brooksville

I saw the new classes. My new class (S0) will be itty bitty as those are mostly exotics/super cars. They are all 9.9lb/hp or better with gobs of torque, except lowly me. I suspect I will rack up many "thanks for participating" and default podium (3rd place of 3 cars) stickers.

Either way, I'm ...

Re: Enduro and New Season coming up so need to inspect and f

Yeah the main reason I haven't already grabbed a 240z is the inflated prices on them these days,,,,,, and that the FL humidity turns them into swiss cheese pretty quickly. I looked at a half dozen before going with the Cayman and they all had a litany of issues that had been addressed and were due ...

Them there Porsches aren't all bad El Mayor.

Though I'm admittedly eyeballing C7 'Vettes and 1st gen 240Z's so take from that what you will.

Ah ha! So Soraya and Philip, that is how you do a turnaround?!?!?! Had I only known! Nice runs. You both are fantastic.

I'll play, here is me burning up tires and pads like they are free.

Jeremy has a new contender for "alien". The day will come when I call them out.


Doug I've read this 7 times and still can't rustle up enough intellect to decipher it. Decipher hell, still trying to ascertain if it is pat on the back or knee to the groin.

I'll assume the best!

Re: Are the Avatars Changing Randomly ?

Loren, I'll have to wait until I'm back at my home cpu to look at the various files I've tried. I'd like to us one from either Miami-Homestead or PBIR since those were professionally taken.

Thanks to Doug for his always patient lessons on tire pressure and handling effects. I'm slow on the uptake and he doesn't strangle me.

I can't get an avatar assigned for the life of me. I've tried compressing, resizing, compressing + resizing and it just keeps giving the same error message about needing to be under a certain pixel size.

Re: April 12 - FAST Championship Autocross at Brooksville

Just got the fresh rear rubber replaced from that nasty cut that kept me out of the last Championship event so I am itching to get back in the saddle.

This one will be a coin toss for me as that is Master's Sunday. Might be able to squeeze the morning session in depending on the final agenda for ...

Re: March 14 - Championship Event at Brooksville

Loren, sadly I just went out to the car to do a brake fluid change and spotted this crack in my tire that runs down to the cord. So unfortunately I am out for tomorrow.

I'm off to arm wrestle with Tire Rack for a replacement set of rear tires.

I'd attach a picture but I'm getting some scolding ...

Re: Fast Duel 2015 post thread

Finally got around to uploading my videos from yesterday. My best run of the day was against Ben to my eye.

But the infamous tie is probably the one most want to see, see here it is for those that are interested:

The rest are on my youtube channel too.

Re: Fast Duel 2015 post thread

That is one helluva a cool event. I can't imagine why anyone wouldn't do the Duel, but sure glad I did.

I was on quite the tear until I ran that dead heat with Doug, which was the highlight of the day for me. Then I pressed a bit on the next 2 runs and got out of the sweet spot I'd been running in ...
