Default Congrats to Ricky's IDRC win at MIR...

Wanted to congratulate Ricky on a well deserved win in Pro-Am all-motor street class at the IDRC race held at MIR. Just to prove you don't necessarly need the fastest car to win, being consistent is the key factor. We're all excited for you dawg. Looking forward to WWIII when she's actually dialed in and tuned.

a win is a win. You gotta take them how you get them..but like you said. Not always the fastest cars win.

Fred had a faster car than him, and he redlighted
Gordon had the fastest car there and lost all power in 4th gear. Still went 12.7 @ 95 mph though LOL
Jen had the 2nd fastest passes of the day and I think she just slept at the light a bit..

But like I said. A win is a win.

Thanks everyone

I think prolly one of the first DOHC ALLMOTOR NONVTEC's to win in a heads up street car class. and the car is still untuned. Finished the car up on thursday and never has a chance to fully tune it. so hopefully i can get it to run low 12's for the next race.

LIke to see you come out to more races looking forward to your low 12s. Butt lets see you take your $ 750 and put the rest of the glass bake in. I have some if you need it. Make sure your car fits mir rules for ww3. Like to get to run you again.

yeah-congrat's Ricky!

Your left rear glass was lexan-remember we spoke about that and what class you should have run. All good though-good to see someone else carry away the trophy that's why that's such a cool class. Just be honest to everyone and be 100% legal next tme out.

I have no I, K, or , on my lap top right now, erghh, had to edit from work.

Well i guess if the only thing you can bitch about is me saving 3 pounds on a window is pretty good then. At least your leaven everyone else alone then ha.

i dont think a rear window weighs 3 lbs either way you look at it.

Those 1/4 windows are actually pretty heavy

ONE window can make that big of a difference? (one rear side panel at that, too) I don't know why everyone else isn't running just one rear panel, instead of wasting all their money on replacing ALL the windows, huh?

Give the man props!

...... same ol same ......
i guess the one window is what was cause him to right?
Give em Props
He was cutting killer reaction times at the tree which is why he won... He was consitant and everyone was sleeping at the tree.

Not to mention that since ppl are mad over one side window that they didnt notice the car still had disc in the rear wich weighs a **** load more than a corner window. Plus he had tools and his Laptop in car during all races.
