No it wasn't anything as eloquent as those options, it was more like his kidneys are not as hard as my knees, his ribs stand no chance against the 3/4inch thick knotty pine in my den and his chest compresses against my oak hardwood floor. Naturally he needed assistance during his little experiments.

Never thought I would be happy to go to work on a monday morning but I am outa here for the calm of the shop. Y'all have fun and don't name it after me.

Rick goes to his happy place, work.
Who would have thunk |
Good morning guys.
Richard, I am sure Michael would have given you a good run if he had not ripped a hole in his radiator hose. One reason I just don't push real hard is I don't want to leave on a tow truck. In the 35 years I have been autocrossing I have never broken my car. I have worn out a lot of tires and brakes but I always drove home without a problem. |
I also noticed that after Michael paid for a clutch job on his 2001 Turbo he launches without a clutch dump like he used to. He has a nice normal takeoff now. He learned an expensive lesson.

Michael didn't just rip a hole in a radiator hose, he broke the nipple off the tank. I have had a few close calls, but the only time I've had to tow my car away from the track was when the boxster spun a bearing. Porsche determined the damage wasn't anything driver caused and replaced the motor.
I was being very careful on my runs as there were several corners with damaging run off areas. I wish they would let us come fix those dangerous low shoulders!!! I also did NOT like Matt using those tall cones. In fact, I would like to petition the board to get a whole bunch of the really small cones like we used to have. I get cone marks on my car and I never used to. |
We bought a bunch of the really short cones. Brian sent me a link and I ordered them. They are like 6 or 8 inches tall and kinda cute.

The problem with using a tractor is the first time it rains the ruts come back. I think it needs to be done with one of them compactors. Maybe even do it like a pot hole and put gravel in the bottom, compact, then dirt and compact some more.
|
Seem to remember Brian sent them back and got bigger ones because Sheriff's wanted bigger ones. I don't see a problem stocking up on cones just for us too.
|
I also think we should implement some sort of plan to keep the ruts filled as they happen. Maybe a check and fill when setting up the course the day before.
|
morning all. its going to be a long week. wife got home last night at 7:45, we gor the call this am her grandmother did not make it thru the night.
Probably be bust and not here much. |
Wasn't going to compact anything with the tractor. I can move more dirt with a tractor than you can with a shovel.

Condolences David

Really sorry to hear that, David. You take care.
