That special oil slick feature is how I kept all you guys behind me. Almost backfired when Radu came bombing up with the brakes locked up.

I did notice mine isn't leaking anymore and for some reason my oil level and pressure guages are both broken. Must be a fuse!?

sure Jeremy, I must have a the same fuse problem- My car is leaking also:D

My rear brake lock up is a trick I learned in my childhood behind the Iron curtain- It's psychological warfare intended to make the others want to stay away from you. Is it working?SmileWavy

oh yes... This should explain my screen name... It was just a training exercise. It was ment to show Derek ,Dave, and the others the ideal racing line through the esses

i enjoyed hanging out after the drive. i'll have to partake again... perhaps indulge in a black russian or two (or six)? :)

i got the cayman back today, so maybe i'll bring her down next weekend. you know... give that r8 a run for its money.

Hey Chris!
It was great having you out. Loved your '71 by the way.

just a Friday reminder... SmileWavy

I'm there!!

Me too, and I'm going to try and bring Stevo in his Beemer although I don't think the guy he brought last time as his passenger will be joining us anymore.

Please re-state time and place ... I ride the short bus and need things stated clearly.

Thanks.

Time and place are in my signature below.
Or go to the first page of this thread and there's a map.
2:00

Bingo. I'll try to be there.

Look for the blue car.

cool!

BTW Radu,

No oil leaking from my car while working on it in my parents garage Saturday. :) Although, on a slightly disturbing note, I found some oil in the top around the oil warning light switch. I replaced that stuff last year. Was hard to tell, I need to take the air box and elbow off to see where it is coming from. The never ending 911 project.

I wonder if "Paris" will give me a call ;)

Here's a link to Wikipedia on the Seattle underground:

I went to Ventura and Laurel...I told you I ride the short bus.

I did do a run from Laurel to the 405 anyway ... that old road is HAGGARD. Time for some new asphalt.

It was a... uh-hmmm... spirited run today.
Chris brought his Cayman S.
Alex brought his Elise.
Kiley brought his "German Camaro"

Good times.

I Know it's Easter....but who's in?

My brake caliper brackets are being machined (slowly) but the stock drums are back on it.
I'll be there.

i won't make it this week... i'm actually hosting an f1 malaysian gp viewing party at 2pm. you guys are welcome to join, but i know you'd rather be tearing up the pavement.

i'll be there, of course (driving)

Thats sounds like a very tempting offer Chris. Decisions, decisions!!

Malaysian GP is Saturday night at about 11PM, isn't it?

yeah. 12 actually.

ah, the beauty of tivo.

TIVOing a race. That's just plain WRONG

haha! i wanted to have the party tonight to watch it live, but everyone else wussed out.

The more I fix the more I find needs attention! I'll have to bow out for today. Next week, hopefully.
Have fun and take pics.
