Default Some foggy Thunderhill pics from 10/22

Had a lot of fun...but lots of traffic as well with a lady in a mini that wouldn't point by. Pretty fun not being in the slower half of the run group. Pics Courtesy of GotBlueMilk!

Here's a pic of the mini....NEMESIS!



Felt good to pass this sti after following for a few laps


No need to ask what happened next here...



and here...



ahhh open space!






Favorite pic of the bunch..




Here is the cleanest lap I was able to run. I'm still really slow so take it easy on me. I know I can improve pretty much everywhere on the whole track haha.

Oxymornic statement here. Rivers are the ones that DON'T track their cars. Aka hardparking. This type R is where it should be; on the track F'ing SU.

Oh she knew we were there....she was either afraid to take one hand off the wheel to point or just didn't know what to do. The instruction could have been better that day, but it seemed like this girl had no clue.

Yes it was sarcasm. I track my car, have sponsored the ITR Expo several times (attended E4-E9), and sponsor Hooch'ns RTA/TT ITR.

But really, how many best of shows have you won?

Perhaps I should start using the smilie again when being sarcastic.

P.S. Just a N00b, you STFU.

Nice pics and vid. Who took the pics?

Also curious as to why they weren't using turn 5.

I think they just wanted to add some variety since the last couple times they ran over the top of the hill on 5. I actually really liked the bypass although I'm slow through it. It was really fun to have the weightless feeling.

I'm getting sick of Just a n00b's ****. He has an absolute belly slapper over the ITR, and hates on everything else. I also love the quote in his sig, which is entirely too ironic:

The only people around here with Evo's or STi's are rich little punks whose mommy and daddys asked "what kind of car can we buy you?"

Kind of ironic when the ITR he drives, which is not his, was purchased by his dad. He also claims he paid for half . . . and is "slowly buying" it. . . LOL. Not to mention the fact that it was a nearly pristine '97 with maybe 1 rock chip when I saw it at Expo when it was for sale, and he's already got in some kind of accident with it (messed up the front bumper somehow). When I mentioned it to my fiance (who also saw it at Expo - see pic below - that's her EM1), she nearly got physically ill. I'm glad a mint '97 w/no security is being driven around by some kid who's daddy bought him the thing. I guess just throw some Pokemon on the dash, get a JDM elder driver sticker, and get in an accident then you're good to go. As always, I will take down the pic of any R when the owner asks . . . so if his dad logs in, I will take her down
