Here's the "black hole" of my personal life! Plans for this year; 2.6L and programable 034 F.I. and of course, every NASA event I can afford to attend!

Thanks guys for the kind word.

 

Mug....more pics of the subie !!!

 

I like how the second shot is compositioned. What track? what turn?

 

That's at Miller Motorsports Park in Utah. I forgot what turn was that. Very fast and fun track as you need horsepower for the full track.

oooo, I like pictures, especially pictures of track cars.

 

here is my car, as it has been showing up to NASA-SE Events since 2005, in some form or another. This is how it looks now.

Very nice RX8. If it wasn't you, I ran with it's twin at Infineon.

Explain the black smoke in pic 2. You got that thing mapped super rich?

Thanks. I wish I had been to Infineon, but I live in Georgia, and that, would be a long haul. Infineon looks like it would be a fun track to drive. And legendary too, that always adds a level of fun.

 

The smoke, that is preceded by flames. I run the car on the track with a straight mid-pipe, no cat. So, it runs a little hot, and on overrun and shifts, it tends to shoot flames and then little clouds of smoke. The rotary also burns oil in normal operation, part of the design, so a lot of that smoke is soot and carbon from the burning of the oil, better to let it out than hold it in I always say!

Nice pics guys.. Mine money is tied up in the car below.

Yea, but what a car you have. You must have one of the best M3 suspension setups out there. You corner like a momentum car and have power down the straights, it is awesome!

I have always liked those. I sometimes feel bad for liking them, but for some reason, I have always thought it would be nice to own one. they still look good, despite their age.

Hi,

 

Here is a picture my 01 Mustang GT at Willow Springs Raceway in Rosemond, CA

 

I'll be heading back to Willow Springs in March for the So. Cal. season opener. I run in HPDE 3.

 

Take Care,

Carolyn
