Black C4 Corvette #46 BS

I was walking back to my office this afternoon after getting a late lunch and I passed through the parking lot of Fisker Automotive. I like to go through there as sometimes I see interesting cars.

I spied a black C4 Corvette like one I used to have. As I got closer I noticed it had stickers on it for SCCA, Hoosier and a big #46 BS on each side. The windshield had a CSCC tech inspection sticker.

So whose car is that?

Are you sure you didn't mistake a dinosaur Civic with ProParts stickers for a Corvette?

J/K! :computer:

I think it may be a new guy from the Detroit Region?
Tom Frecentese

Met him while working course at the last event.
He was interested in getting his old numbers. (I think Jeff and Nicholl have those numbers taken?)

I think Ron's right. I also met Tom at the last event - he was was running BS/Sk1. He ran pretty good times, but I think he was a bit surprised at the difference in his times and the BS times, even though it was street tires vs r-comps. As I recall, his job recently transferred him to So Cal from Michigan.

Correct, he beat me running old Firestones vs. my car with R-Comps by I think .5 seconds.

Oli,
Where do you work? You weren't walking back from McDonalds, were you? :-)

I'm amazed at how many of us work in Irvine. We should try to meet for lunch sometime over at the District.

Stacey worked in Irvine yesterday. Sat alone at Houston's for lunch. While her firm had a party at Morton's in Woodland Hills.
I repeat this story... Because I heard it over and over and over again yesterday.

He is in the Corporate Park circle, Jamboree and Barranca, one day he tracked Philip and I down at the Arby's.

Crap, I wish someone would have told me sooner, I could have skipped that conference call to China at 9pm last night...

Steve, the next time Stacey's stuck in Irvine for lunch alone, tell her to call!

I don't think you want to advertise your mail-order bride business. :lol: Although you could hook up Max.

Why wouldn't I want to advertise? Doesn't Jennifer like the new maid I arranged for you guys?

Hah! I do eat there once in awhile, but my preference is Mr. Sandwich, The best Sandwiches in Town is their slogan. I don't know if they are the best, but they are pretty good.
My favorite place over there is the little Persian kabob place. The #46 chicken barg is delicious!

Where do you work? I work at 10 Corporate Park across the street from Fisker Automotive. They have been hiring and/or relocating a lot of guys from Detroit that probably is the guy.

PS. Yes, I did track down Jason and Phillip at the Arby's when I saw there race car parked out front.

We usually drink at the office... Drinking and driving at lunch is just irresponsible. :lol:

Tonight at 7 PM bring your car to Corporate Park Drive. It is a big oval.

We will run races around it... everyone else does starting at 5 PM and it just gets faster after that.

Isley has the lap record.
