Fill a spray bottle with water... One of the big ones, cool the tires after each run. ;)

Night guys... Short week this week!

Geronimo '74 08-08-2010 09:38 PM

A week is always seven days, Sid, even where you live... :)

morning guys.
Glad to see it is Monday, glad to see my boring weekend is over.

Morning, lads!

Great, yet another vacation week ahead.

Maybe, just maybe, its time to adjust the valves on the 3.2. What a pain. Not the actual adjusting, which I find pretty involving, but what comes before and after, with everything that has to come off and reassemble. But the worst thing is, that after all that work, I donīt notice any difference. Smooth running engine before and after.

slodave 08-08-2010 11:24 PM

I have to do that too. I'm going to get one more autocross in though. Then, off with the fun stuff and time to smog.....

Looks like great fun, Dave! Pretty much a second gear course, I reckon? I had to skip Nurburgring last week, (KIDS!!), but my brother and a friend went. They got several wonderful laps in a great sunset with almost no traffic. In his GT3 2010. Best time 8.40. Not bad for a couple of amateurs.

slodave 08-09-2010 12:43 AM

Yup, ride 2nd until it bounces!

Geronimo '74 08-09-2010 12:43 AM

8:40?? that is not bad at all. About a minute slower than the Rohrl-meister!

Marcus, you missed out dude!!

slodave 08-09-2010 12:49 AM

Did they use the nifty chronometer?

I've not been there, but you did miss out, Markus!

livi 08-09-2010 12:50 AM

I know, G. But both of them have done at least one or two training courses at the Ring and driven some 20-30 laps each. Furthermore they had almost no traffic at all and brilliant weather, which is paramount for good lap times.

Then, of course, a brand new GT3, is probably one of the best vehicles around for the Ring.

The lucky bastards! :D

livi 08-09-2010 12:52 AM

No, Dave, they clocked it with another kind of timer instrument as far as I know.

They should have felt like they were getting greasy.

Good Monday morning.

It was HOT at the autocross, I was real happy we were done by noon.

That's what I meant....

Geronimo '74 08-09-2010 10:35 AM

My reset button, somebody push it.

RKDinOKC 08-09-2010 11:07 AM

Cost me a whole second to keep my A/C on...

I doubt that, unless you got so cold with AC you froze up. The A/C can't use more than 30 HP. You have plenty of power to spare. A few tenths I might accept, but not a full second.

porsche4life 08-09-2010 04:54 PM

Where'd zee pictures come from?

porsche4life 08-09-2010 05:04 PM

Oh and its all about me!
