Hey Guys,

Tedow is leaving out some important info. He's not saying that he not only cleaned my clock and beat me over the course of the two day event but that he was also the fastest "Stock Class" driver of the weekend. Here's something he didn't know yet. Out of the 72 cars in the event Tedow Paxed in the number 1 spot. He did some awesome driving this weekend to back up his pictures.

The red S2000 in the picture is Tedow's and the red Swift with the ugly green wheels is mine.

Cool pictures and congrats Tedow!

 

Check this site for more info: http://gulfcoastregionscca.org/ . The next event is November 24. Unfortunately, our points events are finished for the year...this will be the driver training event. Still lots of fun though, and lots of seat time.

The only car I'm sure about is the black Mustang (#3) pictured behind the RX-7 above...driven by Jose Rodriguez. He's a regular these days. There's been an older Mustang too (#77?) that was crazy fast, but I don't remember the guy's name. Hope to see you out...I'm the red S2000 .

Yeppers, Tedow. You paxed in the top spot and I paxed in the 2nd spot. The ZO6 driver was faster on day one but he couldn't put it together on day two. While .089 may not be a real ass kicking the fact is that you simply out drove me this weekend. I'll send you the results later today.

 

I am doing my first Autocross today and those photos put a little scare into the soul. I'm going to make a fool of myself!!!!!!!!!!!

how fast are those mini F1's

 

Pretty damned fast. My car (red w/green wheels) has a better power to weight ratio than a Lambo or a Viper. It's not such a little car either at 13 feet long. I saw some test figures on a car that has 5 less hp and is 100 pounds heavier. That car did:
0-60 mph - 3.2 sec
0-100 mph - 8.6 sec
100-0 mph - ?? but probably quicker than I can imagine
maximum g's - 2.3 g

That was running higher gears than I currently have in mine since right now I'm running autoX gearing so mine would probably run 0 - 60 in about 2.9 to 3.0. Top speed depends on gearing and the amount of downforce dialed into the wings with the max in the 180 to 185 range theoretically.

Tedow's driven it and he knows its quick. The silver # 51 is faster.
