9thcivic Tail of the Dragon Part II: Official Information and Attendee Thread

[sonej4]

pics or you're lying

Get some tomorrow. Gotta get the new shoes on the si too. Two sets sitting in the garage.

We want snow pics from you!!

I plan on getting my shoes soon, maybe, still gotta decide since Tirerack is offereing a deal on Michelins.

Screw the Michs, get the Dunlop Star Specs. If the vast majority of Subie racers use them, that has to tell you that they are at least decent.

I'll get some pics tomorrow. I have a snow driving vid that I took today when the storm was just starting (riding on Conti DWS all seasons)
Taken with the GoPro Hero3 and controlled completely by the GoPro app on my iPhone (turn on cam, start vid, stop vid, turn off cam)

snow accumulation in western CT is a solid 12" so far and forecast an additional 8-10" coming

I'm not racing, I do not want or need auto x tires like star specs, re11s, ad08s, etc.

Some pics out the door. The driveway was shoveled around 8pm when ~12" was cleared.

I still have a lot of tread on my Nitto Invo's. Want to kill them first, so I'll probably be getting the Michelin PSS closer to the meet.

Some donuts and 11 contests.....lol

 

[KennyGS]

You can bet your booty I'll smoke them good the day before I have them removed.

Videos will be warranted...

I wish I had a high power rwd car that i can burn off rubbish tires with, someday, maybe soon, been looking into GTOs once again.

I don't know what to say about this, rather than don't drive beyond your limits, doing this on a public road would spell disaster. perhaps jrotax101 can give his opinion on this video lol

 

[KennyGS]

Guy needs some help for sure. Was that a Porsche he's driving?

Love the sound of the Z06 passing him.

 

[jrotax101]

LOL that guy became infamous for being completely unable to drive on track. Jalopnik featured it..
The car is a GT2

moron.

 

[KennyGS]

The car is a GT2

What a waste.

 

[jrotax101]

DORIFFTTTOOOOOO *holds a-pillar while gangsta steering*

 

[death_roll]

It seemed like he was getting loose on every corner, regardless of what his entry speed was, was he driving on all seasons??

I think I should do one run of the dragon with one hand on the a-pillar.

 

[jrotax101]

stock tires should be pilot sport cups (rcomps)

 

[MrsJrotax101]

Oh yes...on track with hand on a-pillar and elbow on the window. mmm one thing they teach you NOT to do. ...and his head leaning out the window

 

[07TLX]

What a waste of a good car
