hey guys here are most of the pics from last night.
I couldn't post all of them cuz some of them were too blury to see (last night was really cold and I was shivering like crazy)
first 4 pics are of us waiting at a rest stop
The next 2 pics are of the second place that we stopped at
here is where we met up with most of the people from Club SI
this was blk4blk2k1 racing a neon
and last one is one of a car that lost its hood 1/2 way down the track.
it was kinda cool actually!
Just wanted to say it was nice meeting you at the rest area. I was driving the eclipse in the pictures. Where did you guys go at the track? No one could find you.
Did you see the focus that just sat there at the line totally clueless? Pure comedy
Nice to meet yout too. I'm the dude with the silver civic to the right of your eclipse. We were in the last set of bleachers. Me and Kevin and his buddies got our food and then we had a tough time finding Pedro and the gang. We finally found them in that last set of bleachers. 7thgencivic.com peepz and ClubSi.com peepz just kinda split up I guess? Oh well...
Yes, we saw the Focus who didn't have a clue. Then he like backed up and wanted to go against another guy. He's like, "No fair, I want to go again!". [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG] I saw him later on that night and he finally got his act together. Funny stuff though.
Nice car. I saw you off to the side of the lines entering NED. We were going to see if something was wrong but I had to keep with the flow of traffic. After we parked I was looking around for you and the other 7thgen guys but just ended up following a other club si guys around.
We were in the last bleacher too but I kept wandering around the pits. Afterward everyone regrouped at the texaco and headed to applebees for some late night dinner.
It was a fun time. I should be running my car in amonth or so after I fix my throttle position sensor and buy a new set of tires.
Yeah, I parked off to the side for a second 'cause I didn't have the money for the entry fee! I forgot my wallet at home! D'oh! Luckily Pedro was behind me and he lent me the $10 to watch. I paid him back already via PayPal. Oh yeah, now I remember. You guys were really close to us. You were a little further towards the christmas tree. We were more towards the end of the bleachers. Oh well, good stuff though! I loved watching. I'll probably love participating more though. If I get some more performance stuff on then I'll probably participate. We'll see, it all depends on how much money I can scrounge up. [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]
PCI:
it was nice meeting you too and the guys from Club SI.
I think that you guys were actually pretty close to us (next row over)
that focus was hilarious.
it ran 40 something. (now thatz bad)
and the anouncer was like "Here is a perfect example of what not to do"

I defenetly want to go back (when the weather is nice though)
how many of you guys are going to Import Wars?
I might go (haven't decided yet).
PCI:
are you gonna run your car next time you go?
Grey:
remember your wallet next time.
can you imagine if the cop that ran our plates was actually waiting up ahead....That would of been fun! j/k
does anyone know if its legal/enought to keep the police happy if you just have a copy of your license in your car?
I was thinking of doing that just incase I ever forgot my wallet.
Yeah, definately have to remember my wallet next time! I usually have it in my backpack that I take with me to my classes. I got rid of the backpack and I didn't think that my wallet would be in there. Weird. I don't think that a copy of your license would save your skin if the cop was really ticked off, but I think it would be allright if he was nice and you got pulled over for something stupid. Maybe no license plate up front, or a cracked taillight. You know, nothing major.
Right now the throttle position sensor [ possibly the o2 sensor as well ] is shot on my car. I ran it last october with the same problem and only managed to pull 15.9's in the 1/4.
When I get my taxes back it's going into the shop to have all the sensor problems fixed. Once that's done I will be running it again. With it running normal it should be around 15.0 in the 1/4. Mind you the car is bone stock as of yet. Should be fun though.

blk4blk2k1: I just posted the pics, I never said the outcome! hehe
plus you can blame the results of the neon race on me.
you can say that I blinded you with the flash and you couldn't see for a while. hehe j/k
don't feel bad, there was a car (i'm not sure if you saw it) the focus that just sat there that ran a time of 40 something. so you did better than that guy. [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]
Yeah, it was nice meeting you guys. We definitely should meet up again when it gets warmer. I dont really function at 30 degree weather. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/IMG] I'm definitely gonna find a way to bring my ride up next time, even if I have to spend $50 to get a parking space near my job in Boston. Performance wise, it'll probably be stock, but I wanna race just to see what kinda times I can get. Otherwise, a BBQ like Blk4blk2k1 suggested would be cool too. And there always F1 Racing. Me and my boy have the annual license so we can even set up weekend racing times if needed.
Nice to meet everyone at the dragstrip...that was pretty [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/IMG] - Just introducing myself, I was kev's friend with the EK Civic...definitely let me know next time that goes down...I'm so tempted to race! A match between krepoort's automatic EX against my EK DX? woo daddy that would be fun!
