Oooooooooh Shit.
That is all I have to say. The rot has him. He's infected. Nobody is to make contact with Maeng unless absolutely necessary; he is highly contagious.

If you hold back. :twisted: the no cost solution is what i always do on track which is to twist the seat belt 2 or 3 times next to the buckle before clicking in. put the seat one notch behind where you are comfortable, buckle the seatbelt and twist a few times beforehand. tighten the seatbelt but not too tight. then move the seat back to where you are comfortable and the seatbelt and seat will be tight enough to hold you down, but loose enough to not cut off your air/blood supply. and yes, i am highly contageous... stay away kiddies

Evan Wrote:as someone who has spent a lot of time sliding around in the crappy stock STi seats on track, try to pick up 2 CG-locks before the event. Helps hold you in your seat immensely. Maeng - I have one if you want it, I'll bring it to slummit.

ATTENTION
Anyone who's taking or planning on taking the flagging course. Would any of you be able to be up at Summit Friday in the early afternoon, say 4 or 5pm? I just talked to Mark and he's trying to see if they can get some training out of the way before y'all start on Sat.

i never thought he'd be so dumb... i have been proven wrong.
fwiw, my brakes are together and ready to go on the car... if only i could pull in to the garage in to my spot to swap them over [/rant] everyone cross your fingers that the hubs and calipers are good!

not to be confused with, RJ is rubbing you off, which apparently is the first thing that jumps in Maeng's mind.

Richard Mitchum could use some help in Tech on Saturday morning if anyone is available from 6:30AM until 8:00AM. Kaan can't make it because of his new job. If anyone has experience doing HPDE techs solo, that would be a great help. Right now, we don't have any others able to help out who can do inspections independently without Richard's guidance. Even if you can't do the inspections solo, we can still use the help!
Thanks and Richard thanks you too! (Richard will also be helping to instruct this weekend because of an instructor shortage!) Laura |
