Looks like a great lot they have there. And what track is that on the home page of that site.

That Appletone event is over 2 1/2 hours from me, I can't make that one.

I will be at a Lake geneva event on Oct. 3rd.

I know some guys are going to the TSSCC one on that day, but I prefer more runs to more people and more competition.

I never knew there was a track there. Have driven by that stadium a 100 times. You going there for sure Josh? I might just come down to say high to you. I am only 15 days into S2K ownership. Not sure I am comfortable enough with my car to drive it real hard.

I was driving up in door county today (Saturday) on a rural 55 road, I hit 95 MPH for the first time ever (first time over 85) and I see a cop car coming the other direction with his lights a rolling. Fortunately he was just driving some place else, by the time he could of got a beam on me I was driving 55

No Josh at Appleton .

There was a blue and yellow one that ran. Yellow one looked to me to be the fastest in the division.

They both where on the track. And both got asked if they where "Josh". I shoulda just remembered your handle, as neither where red. I only stayed for the first heat which was "stock" and "street stock" class (at least that is what I overheard).

The blue one looked totally stock and ran good times about 54-56 secs. Which is faster than any pony cars that ran and about what the Corvettes ran. Mostly vettes from 79-early 90s. Not really any thing real new, except in the other classes.

The yellow one had at least an exhaust mod. The yellow one ran consistent 49-50 seconds, which was faster than anyone on the track that I timed. He was also obviously more skilled a driver than most.

Some guy in 350Z was simply a bad driver. Not even sure he was trying at all, he ran like 67 sec. Looked like he was in molasses. Guy in a 911 convertible was hitting it very hard either. Only saw one spinout by a Mustang right in front of me.

No my name is George. My handle is from an online game I used to play, has really nothing to do me or my life. I created an e-mail account of Hydnhood@hotmail.com and I now use it for anything in which I might get spam. I use the name because it is always available and reduces the number of user names I have to remember.
