Default First ITR Expo WA to IL

Even though the drive was crazy and never ending... I gotta say I had a blast and it was well worth the 35 hour drive haha. Got to meet a lot of people and everyone there was really cool. I want to thanks Shawn (get right) for everything without him I've would of been lost and Kyle Hegg my instructor. I've learned a lot from this experience but got much more to learn. Well here's some photos and a video clip be easy on me its my first track experience and I gotta say I had a blast and will probably do it again next year.

Just a reminder to everyone haha.

Right on, Lyda. Glad you made it home safe. Hopefully no more roadkill on the way back home.

Now go tell the rest of those NW guys to caravan back with you next year.

Thanks Shawn actually I somehow hit a frog on the way back home it was stuck on my splitter haha.

I think there will be a NW caravan next year... I hope so because being the only car was sad and boring.

it was nice meeting you at expo dude. I was your Phoenix Yellow ALMOST twin, with the CF hood and CF lip, also with a K.

Looks like we suffered the same fate driving home, I hit a rabbit, got a slight crack right in the middle of my lip. Little bugger ran across then ran back?!!? Some of it got stuck on my buddy's eg, right across his Beaks bar....props again to the 35 hour drive, mine was only 10. look forward to seeing your teg again next year

We had a good caravan for Expo-5. By the time we reached Spokane we had 6 cars in the pack. The NW has enough cars to do it again...

Glad you had a good time! If I go again, it will be on a trailer. My car took a beating on that drive... 5000RPM for 3500 miles (ATS FD).

That's how my brothers ITR was at around 5000 to 5100 in 5th gear but only for 550 miles though...

It wasn't shawn that I went out with, it was my instructor Kyle Hegg that I went out with in his GT3, but hopefully next year Shawn will take me out in his beast

Thanks man, It was because of all of you guys that was so supportive and motivated me to make it this year. Yea I was super excited to test her out wanted to see what all the hype was all about having a K haha. The power is amazing for being just stock with bolt on. Maybe I'll build the motor for next year

man 6 cars?? that would of been so nice. Hopefully we can get 10+ next year. If I can invest in a trailer and a truck for next year I will also trailer my car, but I highly doubt that will happen haha.
