Not sub 2:10 BUT WHAT'S A LITTLE 1.870, its in the realm of believable...maybe

Very deep field it would appear as well.

Actually we ran a 2:11 just fast enough to beat Randy Muller in his prep BMW that was running 2:14 Where is Randy Muller in your list? He finished 2^nd. If you look at our other runs you will see we just run fast enough to stay in front. the session before we ran a 2:14 then decided to drop down another 3 seconds in the race to keep the lead. this was the first time the car was out at a track in 3 months and was a little rusty at first but was still holding back. New engine with 30 min dyno break in and a faulty wheel sensor. breaking was not at max and was shifting at 6200 well below the 7000 that we can push it. If there was someone faster we would have pushed it more but then again it is not a time trial run. Why show all your cards and put more wear and tear on the equipment. We have run with the SCCA guys in SPO in fields of 10 plus and we still go fast enough to win. I do feel the car could go 2:08 if pushed to stay in front.

You called me out on the Corvette times and they are what they are. We are always at the track with the vette looking to play. With the Miata not so much, with the vette most of the time other then a few GT1 cars.

I just sorted the results by class, and then copied and pasted. I didn't look through to many results, I was just stating that your claim on this one was not all that outlandish. I have no idea if you can really run under 2:10... personaly I could care less about how fast someone is in a Corvette, unless it's Mike Skeen in WC

I play a pretty mean game of tennis though, and play very often always looking for someone who wants to try their luck against me. You can find me at Kettering Tennis Center messing around on the court, better bring your Pro quality raquet though if you want to play!

Just a thread correction since we cant count on the moderators LOL

Suck Fumes, didn't call you out for corvette times, he called you out on your parenting skills. It is getting Kind of hard to keep track of all this stuff actually...

we just run fast enough to stay in front.

I could run faster, too, but I just run fast enough to stay mid-pack

We need to start our own area of the site called the breathless comedy show! Just like Andrew got his own corner.

Since I'm not going to get a pic of "six semi car haulers", I'll post on from my day gig from a few years back so we can see what 6 tractor trailers in one place look like. We had six trucks, but one guy got sent home that day and we were awaiting his replacement. The four crew coaches are just for bonus. Don't have a pic of the plane either.....

THIS is what a semi car hauler looks like....

I have s "semi" car hauler. Semi in that it's a flat trailer, not a semi trailer but it's not a full blown car hauler, hence it's a semi car hauler....

Looks like a GCTV to me.

Man I hope those haulers show up at the NASA nationals! Maybe I should make some bumper stickers that say "I'm just going fast enough to stay ahead of you". Lol!

That is the best video I have seen in a longtime. Von C is going to be jealous of your mad skills.
