Why'd you have to go and do this?

Now I've got to choose between being social and going to SCCA Track Night at PIR with some folks from work, or heading out to ORP for this :mad0260:

Just might have to go to this. We just got back to OR. from our winter home in Indio, CA. And we are working at the track sat and sun for the race so why not run Friday.

I did it just for you! Missed you at the TC event last month, wanted to make sure you had another opportunity for ORP this month.

So you participating, or just spreading the word? Seems like a great value but I'm a little apprehensive about the whole open passing thing (ask the folks who go to sykart with me what happens when I am offered open passing :lol:)

Probably a pretty great opportunity to network with some of the chump-car teams though, been trying to find a drive for late this year or next year.

Don't know yet. I have some other things that may get in the way. I've done a couple of events where open passing was allowed, with the constraint of a point by. Never had any problems. I did one of those at ORP earlier this year and it was great fun. In spite of the "open" passing the vast majority of passes were on the straights.

Probably in assuming I can get my brake prepwork done over the weekend, got the ok to take next Friday off. Hard to turn down what is basically unlimited (or rather fuel/tire/brake limited) track time.

Decay107 06-06-2015 10:02 PM

Brake lines flushed and pads changed back out to race compound. I'm in :burnrubber:

Well I'm signed up for Friday but now a darn CEL just came on so I'll have to get this sorted out before I can go.

Hope you can get it sorted out! You're one of the few Oregon track guys I still haven't had the opportunity to run with.

Me too!

No good, CEL is from a bad sensor which of course Scion does not have in stock and can not get it until Friday. So I won't be able to make it.

Perhaps try Subaru? In my experience they are far more pessimistic than Toyota about general reliability of piece parts.

@Lunatic, @Decay107, I'm looking very forward to running with you guys. Focusing on getting some more instructed time under my belt this summer. Safety first. :thumbsup:
