Man, I slowed down for Mark and Marc and you guys just never seemed to catch up. I thought maybe you got off on Westheimer and I didn't see Tim in front of me anywhere, either.

I was expecting Mark to just take the Beltway feeder North, lots of room to run.

So I ended up getting off after Richmond somewhere and making a U-turn. I took westheimer all the way to HWY6, then HWY 6 all the way home. Thought I might see you guys, but I obviously didn't.

Oh well. I had fun tonight, and I'm sure 5 S2000's passing you at over 120 MPH was fun for many of those drivers. We gotta do it again.

MAN!!! I saw you go and then tried to catch up but not lose Unicron and the other silver. Saw Marc again. Unicron and his buddy and I stayed on the beltway to way past 59 exit. Unicron and I exited Almeda exit and found a very nice, very straight, very new road. Did four starts and...well...ask Unicron what happened. Would like to get another ride in your SCStook. Let's do it again. Before Ashville. Thanks again.

Mark

I thought Tim was ahead of me, didn't he go through the Ez-Tag lane?

<not mentioning anything about what happened when Mark and I ran>

Actually Unicron tried to get through the EZTag lane but then realized he had no EZTag!!! So he had to backup and go through the cash lane....anyways Mark and I waited for him, by that time you guys were long gone...

Anyways, I was behind Marc and Wes when they both took off on a rolling start from 60 mph on Hwy 10. Your Supercharged S2K had much more power and took off easily...can't beilieve what 6 pounds of boost can do for the S2K until you see it for yourself!!!

Everyone should buy the comptech supercharger!!!

Wesmaster,

The supercharger is bada$$...I love it to death. Great purchase man!


Lips2000,

Ahhhmannn...you can say it! "I waxed Unicron 4 times in a row!!!". Haha... You have a good launch there buddy! I'm pretty impressed. Great job man...that's the first time I went up against a S2000.


Yeah...Lips2000 left me cold on the launches. Man...it must have been the combination of his launching technique (7k sidestepping), and his S02's vs my Toyos. I guess people were right...with 16's, there is more vertical contact patch than 18's (not to mention the S02's are wider and more sticky than my Toyo's).


All,

Thanks for comming out...that was fun as heck!

Only b/c Unicron mentioned the fact that I waxed him 4 out of 4 times will I say this: the funniest part was when we thought Ada, his svelt female passenger, might be slowing him down. So...we stick her in my car and run. I *still* beat him...hmmmm...must be the tires... Was cool though! Have no dea what the name of that road was but it was made for this sh*t!! Let's do it again...SOON!

Try to make it out this Saturday night. I'll usually be at the little strip center in front of the Super K-Mart @ Dunvale and Westheimer around 10:30 PM hanging with the ICCH cats. Swing by. It's fun!!

Mark
