I fear not, a car wired by Lucas! There's four points events left, plenty of time for British reliability to rear it's ugly head. But that's ok, I'll help you push it on the trailer ;D

Ive actually got 3 wins in a row, but with different clubs.. Momentum here I come! Just kidding, its going to be a great battle between Mike and I! Really it seems to come down to who has the better day as it's often back and forth. Although after my 2nd run at Intimidators last time I knew that was as fast as I was going to go (and I was right.) Irony bonus: I was beat on the exact tires last year that I tested against the ones I drove on this year. Last year the ones I drove on this year were faster, so I sold the old ones cheap. Guess which ones weren't worn out yet? DOH! Pwned.  -Biggly |

Watch out in tire class! I'm getting ready to make my move on Steve  How are you in the rain? Steve is not the only person you have to contend with now! If it rains, I'm fully prepared with my all season tires. ;D so basically I'm hoping it rains. Because I'm using the all seasons if it's sunny, too.  |

Who are you, fluid1? Are you Ignatz?
Last year's NTI was a short and twisty. Not a great 350Z course, so good luck! I'm gonna PAX you up, man!
If you're not Ignatz, then ignore the first part and read the last part again!
Hope we have another non-points in Dec!

If you're not Ignatz, then ignore the first part and read the last part again! Hope we have another non-points in Dec! Yes, it's Ignatz. So far, the results have read 350: 2, Beetle: 0 Although I have never raced at NTI, and it will be my third autox in the 350. I can't wait to drive tomorrow! I'm glad to see all the tire class guys getting into it. Funny your username is Volksman, as I just ordered some Volk CE28N's..... And as of Thursday evening, I am no longer bone stock! Have a front sway now.  |

What am I, a clown? Do I amuse you? Do I make you laugh? Explain to me exactly what you mean by funny. Glad everyone's having fun here instead of being all serious. ;D Yes we krout cars can be arrogant. I think it has some thing to do with engineering! Hey TR6! If I beat you, can I call my car the tomato can crusher? Fluid1, Congrates on the sway bar, you'll feel it real quick what a difference it makes. I dropped 2 sec on a 40-45 sec course. 2 More and I'll be competitive! C-ya all there, Greg |

Wheeee! you guys are really getting into this. I love it!
Rivalries in any sport makes it so much more interesting. However , the tomato can comment was (true, but) not nice. Limey cars excel(in our minds).

Hey TR6! If I beat you, can I call my car the tomato can crusher? No you may not. All seriousness aside, in order to comply with "Jack's official rules of Trash Talk" (just composed) you may not use the term "crusher" or "Squasher" until AFTER you have defeated your opponent in at least 3 consecutive points events (as I have you). Secondly, the terms of ridicule you choose for a particulat car must in some way be related to that car. Clearly the terms "Bug" or "insect" are quite relevant to a Volkswagen Beetle, whereas the term "tomato can" is in no way related to a classic British sports car. Cheers, Jack Mc |

Hahahaha! Cheers, I'm going to be gunning for you!! Only .2 away PAX last time you were there in K-town. It was 0.198 seconds - you lost by the narrowest of margins to a 33 year old car with suspension and drive train designed over 40 years - clearly this was a fluke - couldn't possibly happen again .... could it? heheheh Jack Mc |
