Had a GREAT time!!!! It was great to see everyone again. The car did FANTASTIC!!! I was able to have Mr. Shugg for a ride along my first run Sunday. It's amazing what he knows. He had me flying out there. Hope to see everybody at LMS in Sept.

This is for DON!!!!!!!!!!!!!

John, you wern't kidding when you told me CMP is hard on brakes! What kind of pads are those???

Thomas

johnbasf · 08-05-2002, 08:13 PM

Hawk Blues Thomas. You need to run this one. I ran a 1:59, 11 seconds better than last time there. The Iron boys were running 1:50 - 1:52.

thomasmoran1 · 08-05-2002, 08:53 PM

John, I'm running the hawk blues also and I've never had them dust up like that. However I must agree that they are an great pad. I've heard some people say that they really eat up rotors but that is not the case for me. How about you?

Thomas

Thanks John!! I have something for you guys too...it's what I came up with on our ride home in the 103 degree (it was posted on a billboard on the way home) heat with NO AIR CONDITIONING sitting on black leather seats!!!

It's my Ode to CMP...

I like to open track
the whole year through
if given the choice
it's all I would do

With my helmet all strapped
and my gloves on tight
I always make sure
my tire pressure's right

I take to the track
and slam through the gears
I hit a late apex
and listen to the cheers

Late breaking in one
and also in eight
110 through the kink
as my instructor yells "GREAT"

PINKPSY for breakfast
for lunch an M3
we eat em' all up
my Mustang and me

I'm back in Pa.
and off to smell my brakes
I'll see you all at Lowe's
no matter what it takes!!!!!

CMP kicked royal butt!! See ya at Lowe's!!

John, I agree it was a fantastic time out there!!!

I finally got to meet several more members and I must say all of them are FANTASTIC PEOPLE!!

My son and I are really pumped for LMS in Sept. I'm hoping to come better prepared for that event and repay some of the folks for the "soda's, water, chairs, shade and munchies that were provided"!!

Thanks again everyone!!

Big Daddy · 08-06-2002, 10:05 AM

Don,

GREAT POEM!! PINKPSY for breakfast....Is there something I should know??

Thanks for the hospitality around your tent!!! I hope you make it for LMS we'll miss you if you don't make it!

Take care and thank your wife for showing my son and I such great hospitality also!

PS PINKPSY first thing in the morning sure was an EYE opener!

1:59!!!

Awesome John. That's a great time!!!

Don, you are the man!!! That was an awesome poem... I'll think I'll keep that one...

I enjoyed watching you guys out there even though it was painful as heck! I've already driven about 600 miles this week and at least 500 of those was spent daydreaming about getting the car back together, but not yet... early next year...

I've been running a fox-body-from-hell around in my head thinking that I may put the banana back on the road and put together a screaming AI fox... any thoughts???

Tom, keep the snake on the track. It's an amazing car, and i just don't know if it'd be the same not having the banana on the track. I know i've never seen it in action, but from what i've been reading this past year and a half or so.... that car has given you a lot of joy. And, it will continue to do so someday i'm sure.

PINKPSY was on the license plate of one of the cars in our group...

justagt · 08-07-2002, 09:27 AM

Tom, go Fox. I know someone tryng to get rid of a LX hatch real cheap and halfway gutted.

SIUNARA · 08-07-2002, 12:00 PM

Tom,

IMO, you need to be in a car that you feel comfortable in...have you driven a fox to see if you like the differences between the SN-95 platform and the Fox? You can build either car to be great, it really depends on which one you would be MOST happy in. Think about the things you like about the Banana, will the Fox have the same characteristics, will you miss things about the Banana on track, will you be happy in a Fox? I guess what I'm saying is think about all of the characteristics of each car and maybe try out a fox before you decide...that way you cut down on the chances of kicking yourself in the butt later on!!

b_tone · 08-07-2002, 12:42 PM

Hey Tom, I have a black fox body that is 90% setup and ready to go that is always for sale at the right price....
