I was in the black camaro… had a great time. Thankful nothing broke even after messing up shifting into first when I meant to hit 3rd, but good thing my tires weren’t very sticky and I just got a bunch of axle hop. And they say 10-bolts rears are weak lol…
My wife got some pics but she needs to “adjust” them in photoshop before anyone sees them.

I heard that misshift. I was thinking I might have needed to tell you that at worst you probably just bent a pushrod or two. Sounds like the LS1 had no issues though!
I shifted mine 2-1 at the top of 2 before as well without any issues. They’re tough.

the guy with the mini said he might be up to some more of the nyspeed track days. he said he couldnt commit though so it would be a last minute thing.

The track manager (Dave?) said that he got a picture of us toward the end of the evening, with our glowing rotors. I hope we can get that.

did you guys catch a down pour or rain on the way back at all? I was planning on going, but rain would have been really bad with the T-rex with my new drag radial on the back.

Yeah, Bob was driving the Mini. He’s from the area, but due to work can’t really know ahead of time when he can be there. He’ll be there again at some point I’m sure.

I’m going to email John today and I’m sure he’ll send them over. He had them on the computer at the end of the day and it looked awesome!

It’s still a little early. But for those who might be interested, our next day is Friday August 1st. Since it’s a Friday, the price is $60. To sign up, [Click HERE](http://www.onyxsyndicate.com/reg/registration.php) to view our Registration & Payment Page.

No rain at all until I got back into the states. It looked like we were going to get dumped on for a while though and had a few little drops, but nothing that didn’t evaporate right away.

Yeah the rain held out beautifully. I almost wanted it to rain to slide the Subaru around, but probably best it didn’t.
I want someone to catch a photo of my car shooting flames…I didn’t even know it did till Brent had my car out for a ‘few’ laps and it was getting darker.

The Impreza coupe for most of the day. I tossed the keys to Brent and went over to watch him take a few laps in it at the very end.
