Big white guy with short buzzcut and beard. i should be running better i need to figure out whats wrong with my car. i ran a couple 14.7's before with 3.08 gears and a slipping transmission.

Had a great time, except for the disappointing time but hey, what else is new? I overboosted to 25lbs and it was fluctuating bad on the way home. Once i got back to high altitude though, it wasn't as noticeable. Ordering my incar boost controller here asap and will do it again. I know with a good launch and boost holding steady i can hit a high 12 like it should be.

Sounds like it was a good time, sorry I had to miss out. Hopefully next year will be a better one for me. By then I should be high enough on the seniority list to get a more solid schedule, maybe even weekends off. Anyone got more pics?

Wrong guy

maybe im confused i dunno. my first meet its hard for me to get everyone down the 1st time you know. i was saying i was the big white guy with a buzzcut and beard.

Oh ur prob rt then, my bad

I remember meeting you just didn't know you was running your car. TraviZ, Will, and I was trying to figure out who was running the red thridgen with a black hood.

Yeah, any other pics, or video??

I know Marc had his personal photographers there, but not sure if they were taking exclusive photos, haha.

Heres a couple of vids, from a buddy of mine..3rdbird,then Bennie. Could have been worse.

Manhart Photography was out there shooting pics. He and his wife are a family owned photography business.
They have some award winning pictures out there. He is also a marketing/wedding/portait photographer. They are looking to grow their business, so I thought that would be some good exposure for them to add some action shots into their resume.

They did my new phone book pictures, and will be doing our Holiday family pictures. I got things worked out with them to snap a couple pics of my car as well as all of the competing TGO's.

I'll share them as soon as I get them.

my friends 86 iroc is still on sale

red thirdgen black hood who was slow was me! haha. ill do better next time...

My track times were sad last time too... :/

I got some pictures and a lil video. Im in seattle right now. Will try to have those up this weekend. Somebody call and remind me on Friday. Had fun also. Great meeting all of you guys. Hey Marc, I have some minor exhaust work I would like you to finish up for me.. you down?

Of course, whenever you're ready.

kool.. Ill be in touch

well, if gured out why i did so bad at the track. I have a huge boost leak on one of the metal boost pipes on the driver side. I built a pressure tester yesterday to double check before ordering the $85 valve. Instead of being at the clamp, there is a crack in a weld that is blowing air through bad, even at 1-2psi. Crappy thing is some of the pipe is under the engine do i have to lift it out a few inches to get to it.

well at least you found the problem. Thats always good

Pulled the pipe out today and there is a 1" long crack in one of the welds. Having it welded tomorrow.

dude, really... whats up w/ the thirdgen? Do you need to borrow some money or what? Much love but come on..

Have other things to spend my money on, like daily drivers, kids and a house. Maybe I should open up a shop and I can be a big dog too.

It gets work done to it when I can. Once my Durango sells, it gets finished.

That's why they call it a hobby boys, priorities comes first.

Let Me Know if u guyz gona do it again......hopefully sooner

tell me about it!

First , I'm flattered you think I'm a big dog, I'm not, but I play one on TV. Second, I'm pushing you to either fix the Formula, or sell it to me!
Third, just trying to keep it ThirdGen
Much love, hurry TFU
