Re: August 23rd Championship Reg Open
I have a set of semi-truck air horns with a quick connect. Just need a tank full of air.

Maybe you can handle the blowing part Rick.Rick Brown wrote:There's a whistle in the motor home....... you just have to be able to blow real hard..............

In the meantime, does the motorhome have a horn that works?
Does anyone know if we have liner in the CTV?

Maybe we could start vacuuming up the course after the event and reusing it......

Wow! looks like warp speed to me. Both the car and your driving have come a long way this year. I think you and the Larssons make a good team.Aaron Goldsmith wrote:here's a Vid of one of my runs on sunday, sorry about the no sound.. a cable was left plugged by accident.

Re: August 23rd 2009 Championship
Man, the car drives so well.. it's awesome. Number 1 secret though is DON'T SLOW DOWN, we can't compete with the Berrymobile on ability to get back up to speed.. so just don't slow down any more than is absolutely necessary!Number 2 secret is, commit to your corners and exits early, if you turn in at the wrong time or get on the gas late you've just ruined your lap. I'm still working on these a lot, it's where Toby beats me according to the data. Data says i lost almost a second to Toby, in the following acceleration zone, because I didn't get on the gas soon enough coming out of the hairpin.Sebastian Rios wrote:Wow! looks like warp speed to me.

Just like old times huh? Guess the economy can't keep us all out. Good to see high numbers like this.
