My ex-evo7's heritage lives on ...
Those of you who remember me and remember my JDM Evo 7 "French Blue/Bleu/Blah" will enjoy this short video. When I sold the car back in 2009 to a friend of mine here in Lebanon, he went on to open up a performance shop/garage, and is now competing in the local "Speed Test", which...

Re: To all those bailing on this Saturday's practice
And no, 4WD don't necessarily have an advantage over 2WD. And what per say were you towing to our events at the time :D Jay W Ha ! Okay yes that :D (Evo 7, for those who don't know), but also look at the 2005 Nat'l results in STX, where in fact a rwd bmw 325 could compete with the rest of the field...

Re: Bob & Patty Tunnell
Bob and Patty were big shot back in the late 90s / early-mid 2000s. They are top-notch people. Bob personally taught me a few things about car setup back when I was struggling with my '00 M Coupe. He's a great guy to be around, not to mention extremely serviceable. Patty and Bob always used to have ...

Re: To all those bailing on this Saturday's practice
A bit late to the party but .... back 10 years ago, I longed to race in the wet. Racing in the wet is that time when the field gets level, as in, it's a lot more a question of who's behind the wheel than the car being driven. And no, 4WD don't necessarily have an advantage over 2WD.

Re: Not Just SUV's ... Fiat 500 Also
Stumbled upon this thread :) I have no idea how the 500 (and/or Abarth equivalent) would fare on the AutoX course, but mine could be made rather quick by tuning out the classic understeer inherent to road cars. All I know is that it demands a low ride-height, very stiff springs, and shocks to match....

Re: Running windows7 on a MacBook
Somewhat back on topic... Question: Do I want 32 bit or 64 bit W7? Why do I care? If you have more than 4GB of RAM (and/or you want to use more than 4GB for Windows) , it might make sense to get the 64 bit version, as the 32 can only recognize up to 4GB. Also, I don't think ChaseCam is a 64-bit app...

The GTR belongs more on the track, whereas the Abarth belongs in lane changes, slicing and dicing, cutting people off (did I just say that ???) etc ...

I assume you've already run an anti-virus program with the latest defs ? Because I have seen problems like this happen before, due to viruses. Otherwise, it can also very well be a power supply problem, not delivering sufficient and/or clean power to your motherboard. Or it could technically be a ve...
