Hampton Roads, VA - The Hangout!

[nv4gt ws]

Went to Vmp yesterday with Danny. Best run was 13.16 at 107.65 mph, launching at 2400. At the end of the day it cooled down and i got somes balls to launch a higher rpm, i launched at 4500 and she ripped. I knew it was going to be a good run, but blew 3rd to 4th shift. Racing a stick is a trick.

Nice! Isnt racing much better than just car shows? You only live once and we are definitely not spring chickens anymore.

Nice!! Its expensive but its fun!!! I got over sitting in the hot Sun and seeing the same cars weekend after weekend. Great people no doubt about that, but that $25-$50 for the shows can go into my car and not pay for my own Damn trophy. LOL!!

Track prep was great out there yesterday. Just ask korn about it ......ouch!

Anyone on here or know the person with a mineral grey/tungsten GT, Roush spoiler and "1 SIK GT" on the plates? We were coming back from Christmas Town and at the Fort Eustis exit two S197's went by me at least 100mph and higher.

Must have been going fast. 1 sik gt is actually legend lime, the other car was probably mineral grey with a p1 kit

Glad everyone had a good time, I was planning on making it down to VMP yesterday but Mike couldn't get my car tuned Wed so I will have to wait for next year. At least I found the problem with the new DBX so the car is OK to drive until I get it back to Mike.

Damn, I wish I knew you were going because I would have went with you. I would have ran against you Walt.

Tim and I have been messing with his car since the VMP rental. Kept it a secret so to speak.

Didnt look green to me and No im not color blind. I was right next to both of them when they got off on the exit and we followed them until they went into Ft. Eustis. Other car was silver and had LED's on the rear license plates.
