btw...if you have mountain run pix, post them! Andy's got mine so you're gonna have to wait on him for those! I know some of you other people took pix tho!

And Chris, we disappeared because the tow truck driver was hauling ASS! All of a sudden everyone was uturning and I followed suit [how could i resist driving in the dirt?!]. We had a hard time keeping up with the damn tow truck. If it wasn't for Jason, I'd have been totally lost!

Don't you know grip driving is old skewl man? Drift is where it's at....screw the tires and curb rash! I was turning the ever so impressive 16 & 17 seconds laps sideways :P I got a couple low 15's but running for time got boring when you're on a slick track in a vehicle with no suspension.

I kept losing momentum and couldn't get on it coming out of the turns like I wanted [when sideways]...they need a little less clutch and more drive and you should be able to spin coming out of the turns. You know I didn't even look at the axles...was it solid or one wheel spinning?

Dropped it of at the body shop this morning. Anywone care to guess what it'll cost to get it fixed? :( The LSD goes on hold for another month.

ding ding ding.... 1200 is exactly right. On a positive note, they're going to pull all of the dings out of passenger side so that's money that I don't have to spend.
