Man Ryan is so much faster than the last time I rode with him. Nice driving on your part also..what kind of times you put down?

Of course! I'll let you know next time I venture down to Buttonwillow. If I go, it's usually with a bigger group...more Honda's the merrier.

He's gotten fast! We went out that session and Ryan and I were both like...damn, Ryan D. is fast! Haha. We posted 2:11's, then in the video below I ran a 2:09...and that was being held up just a bit by a pesky 911. I'm sure I can run 2:07's or 2:06's with some more seat time.

and...here's my in-car footage

I'm learning a lot about swapping motors and baking cakes. She just pulled this talent out of no where and, before I knew it, I was hand painting leopard spots on a cake. It's consuming a lot of time so I haven't worked on the sedan much. Anyone have a spare 4-wire O2 layin' around?

Pretty Cool Matt, I enjoy baking cakes actually! I dont know, I started making these double layer cakes with filling in the middle (pudding, fresh fruit, oreo's, some down south pie filling) I'd post pictures, but Im sure you get the idea! Those cakes look sick though, its like that CakeBoss show, crazy edible creations are hitting it big lately. Good luck to you guys with the new business!

Nick- Looks like a beautiful day there. Sick that you have video of both angles!

Nice. My last t-hill event I was running 2:07's with my brake pads causing gnarley steering vibrations...matt ran a 2:03 on his 2nd lap in my car before he blew the dipstick out of my motor ...he said he could prob slice another second off that

Thanks, man. Yeah, it's interesting to say the least. It can be fun, but mostly stressful.

Had to repost. Love this shot, and the lexan/plexi duckbill. Something you only see at solo2 events for the most part.
