Good luck,Nat. Would love to check it out but I'll be at Seca for ALMS.

 

^^ we lost two of our drivers to that race!!! hahaha

4xrex..we wanted to do that one since its a REAL 24 hours....but we have a wedding to go to that weekend

 

That's my team . We just got a motor back in the car on Monday and are working out a couple kinks. Still just a normally aspirated 2.5L 4 banger automatic station wagon though The car is running well though and we'll be there this weekend. BTW, your team had my vote as "People's Choice" in July You guys were quick and ran a nice clean race. Looking forward to seeing you guys and the rest of the nutball Lemons racers in a couple days. Hopefully we'll last a heck of a lot longer the last go around.

 

i hope you guys last longer this time!!!!

thanks for the people choice!!!! haha wait till you see our car on saturday..OMG is blinding...we went with another theme and i just finished the 1st coat of paint...taking a break and letting it dry were running the same engine just changing things like brake pads and oil...starting to get excited wooot woot!

btw...whats your name? im Natalie.

 

ya were gonna run the same car. #11 just fixed the one fender and replaced a few bent parts. one of our guy has been driving it to work.

 

^^ glad you guys are coming back!

 

goddamn I wish I could go

 

Our car is exactly as it was last time out, just with a *hopefully* more reliable and lower mileage motor. That and a bigger/taller radiator that I was too lazy to cut the core support to lower in to place. So I just cut a hole in the hood to clear the rad cap Since our car only took a couple minor hits out there last time (which all popped out) we left the paint alone. We did however raid the sticker bin at the shop and according to them we are sponsored by about 15 different companies! I do have to give a shout out to Tim Bailey from Surgeline Tuning. He found our new motor for us, got us a get deal on it and even helped out with shipping down to us. Tim is the bomb! Some of you guys might know him from his days at PDX Tuning, but he has now formed his own tuning firm. Get a hold of him if you need a tune. *End shameless sponsor plug*

 

Thanks Natalie. We are certainly hoping to be running when the checkered flag waves this time. My name is Paul. There are actually two Pauls on our team. I'm the (somewhat) slimmer one We are leaving from SoCal around 10:00am so we should be there around 3:00-4:00pm. See you there. Stop on by to say hi if you get a chance.

 

I'll be back at this race. This time around I'll be in a Tiki-hut themed FX16. We're heading up for the test session in a few minutes!

See y'all out there.

 

after two motor swaps on saturday night and a rear trailing arm, hub, etc swap we finished i think 41st...hahaha i was too tired to walk back to the trailer and see what it actually was.

GOOD JOB TEAM SCOOBY! glad to see you guys finally finished one and not bad in the standings either!!!! i came over a couple of time to say hi but everyone was busy working or on the track and i didnt wanna bother ya.

 

Thanks Natalie. You guys were flying out there at times. Sorry to hear about your mechanical woes. I did catch wind of overnight motor swaps.

We ran ok, and were running pretty good times even though we could not go WOT right out of any corner. We had a really wierd stumble/hesistation/misfire when going WOT. After pedaling it a couple times it would clear up and off we went, but that cost us a lot of speed. We never got it resolved. We also lost about an hour and half and 70 laps to a bent control arm. We lost about another 10 laps or so to a couple bent tie rods. Jay also gave us a 20 lap penalty even though we weren't penalized last time out for overspending. We were given a $500 budget to resurrect the car, of which we only spend about $300, but somehow we got dinged. Go figure. No big deal though, we still had a blast and I'm already figuring out which car I want to take to next year's race.

 

hehehe yeah on saturday night we had a broken trailing arm that i managed to leg around the track until the motor blew and i clutch kicked it all the way for 5 more laps before it gave up....then we towed her back and pulled a dr frankenstien!

good job guys i cant wait to see what you bring back next time!!
