That just wasn't right...


Last I saw of Carter he was leaving the track as fast as he could:). clearly he doesn't want to hang around us.

That ain't right at all!!! Mr. CNJ is such a cheetah he thinks the short wheelbase modification on the right side of the car is legal. Sheesh.

Hey I know why I'm goofing off in the afternoon (sitting a plane), what's your excuse? :)

Last time I saw Kent, I was whaling on the front of his car with a sledge hammer to get the wheel turn far enough to drag the smoking hunk of a carcass back on a trailer.

Moovn,

You know you are starting to get better when people start telling you how fast your car is. Mr. Drago and especially Mr. Berry's cars are über fast. It can't be that they are running better lines and are more consistent. It has to be the cars.

Seriously their cars are top notch but so is the driving.

Hey moovn,
Go ask the fast guys (or even the rental owners, thanks Larry Oka!) how to go faster, and they'll tell ya'! I'm a mid pack guy, but in my last two events (50+ SM's), the top guys are all helping wrench on one another's cars (think their looking for "cheating"?). And anytime I've asked about set up, driving etc., they've all been gracious (well except Ron A., he told me I could NOT change my transmission in 25 minutes after blowing it up in ITA warm up, can you believe that!)
And there will be some "cheetahhh" stickers showing up randomly now I'm guessing....

Hey now...no starting viscous rumors Rusty :D If you had said 30min, maybe, I've heard thats the record! And that is the last time you will be allowed to call yourself a "mid-packer" :burst: Welcome to the pointy end...AKA the "Cheetah" club. B&D !!

After all the PM's all I can say is And I apologize to those few Not everyone is cheating. But to those of you who are, best of luck to you in your own mind!
There are those who are using galvanized tubing instead of steel for there roll cages to distribute the cross weights in the cornersand then those who are using illegal crank sensors. again this is suppose to be fun and enjoyable, I think Golf is boring.

When you say things like "not everyone is cheating" it implies most are? The cheats you bring up are either several years old or never occurred.

This is one of the drawbacks of the internet. It is so easy to get mis-information from self-proclaimed "experts"
