Thanks for coming out and making it a fun day guys. I had a blast.
Thank you for inviting me ayjay, i had a blast!

I apologize for skipping out early from the wings (when i got home it turned out my bro's battery was low, so starter was just clicking and not getting enough power to turn the engine over )

it was great seeing the usual crew out there, and meeting new people, sdracing, johndoe, aaron..

team racing's event was a blast. mario is a really great instructor and knows his way around the s very well! for anyone going to team racing events, request this guy!!

on a side note, i noticed on my second to last session, i was getting a squeaking noise on the rear passenger wheel side... turns out i broke my porterfield R4S in half!!!! good thing I took it really easy on my last session out there..



and my rear rotors are all fuct up


that was the only pad that broke... i didn't check the front but no funny noises and i drove back to socal with it on... nothing sounded or felt funny. (sohcmydohc loovvvessss socal!)

i don't know whether to order another set of the R4S or try out another rear pad. but these r4s pads eats my rear out like crazy.

ayjay, i hope you have a blast on your festivities next week

i took SOME pics, unfortunately, none of grimnebulins..

Toddy todd I'll send you pics.

I had fun guys and you are all right... The more I get pass. rides he more I wanna run. Hopefully next year my car is set up for the track.


JCJT... i didn't look at the pass rear just the drivers side when you asked about the brakes...


Matt great driving and thanks for the ride. Don't forget we have an autoX on sunday Nov 1st. Hope to see you there.

Paul... You're a savage! Losing nuts and bolts and still have the huevos to go out and track. I'm glad I pointed that out otherwise the belt may have chewed up the rest of the parts under the hood.

It was great meeting all of you in person, I had a blast, the wings were great as well, I'm looking forward more events, specialty autocrossing.
Paul I'm sorry, the session I was driving behind you wasn't recorded, it's all Castro's fault, he didn't turn the camera on that session
but we can do this next time, will follow you and have the whole session recorded.
Todd, you made me crave for a supercharger now, and a set of coilovers as well

Haha. Andy, the way I see it the car has lots of bolts what's losing one here and there. J/K. I'm just glad you spotted the pulley issue. A blessing because I found out the tower bar was destroying the oil line and after cooler.

Sorry I couldn't stay to finish out the wings, but after 2 liters of soda, one red bull, and being up since 3am, I was done.

Matt, thanks for looking for the video. Next time for sure.

Maybe the COs could set something up for next season similar to Friday. Good time for sure.
