Go here for event details/directions:

You can register when you show up, but online is $5 cheaper. Click that link above for more info. You need a helmet (Snell M or SA2001+ certified), and something for numbers on your car (painters tape I have heard works in a pinch). Check out that link above.

Hey, anybody interested in joining me at the NE Minneapolis Game Stop tonight for the Midnight release of GTA IV? (I'm lookin at you Razzi! eh, eh?)

We can go back to my pad after and have some good 'ol fashioned violent fun while drinking beers! eh, eh?!

seanranger3

what about for spectators. how people is rolling out there

Razzi

i'll be out there sean. come by and rep the acuras with us, i wont be running tho.

i need my sleep dan, lol. i'm a growing boy

remember when jorge was cleaning my headlights, well. it got even more messed up and is now super dark, it even spreaded to both sides. both my lights are so dark now





just kidding, if anything, i owe jorge for clearing them up. thanx homie
next up i'm removing the wing in the grill and replacing it with mesh, then painting the surrounding chrome NBP, should be able to once the weather picks up

either tomorrow or wednesday, probably wednes.
btw, josh need an entourage back from the airport?

underst8

Anybody can come watch.

Josh and Jorge (takata) are competing on Saturday, and Josh and I on Sunday.

I actually just read that the slots are all filled (160 max), so unless you can find someone selling their slot it's only gonna be spectating.

underst8

Damnnnnnn Ken that shit is hot. It took me a while to decide if I like the tint and eyelids, and I have decided it looks good!

Questions -

1) Do you know what % the tint is?

2) Can you see at night lol?


I think I might need to put mine on now.

Razzi

it's the ebay knockoffs, the ones i have are rockin 33% light transmission lol, i can see at night but my headlights cant outdo the street lights. i ordered new one and they're 66% these run about 20 bucks shipped

the rockblocker ones i believe are 87% and are like 45 bucks without shipping. since you have HID you're probably better off than me

underst8

I honestly don't even know what % the ones I got now are - i am undecided, I either went with the lighter or the darker, but I have no idea which lol.

GLowrdr

Those eyelids are pretty tight man. But yeah - I could see where you might see some functional issues with the dark tint on the lights.

Too bad they don't (do they?) make those smoked headlight covers that you can just pop on and off. I had a set of those for my Jimmy. Easy on - Easy off (key word is had them on my Jimmy until one flew the nest sometime between point A and B)

Razzi

lol, that sux man. i suppose you could wash off all the sticky adhesive, then tape off the edges with scotch tape when you want em, peel em when you dont lol

GLowrdr

Been kind of quiet today... you at home stealing cars and smacking hoes?

Hey - not quite the same league, but I bought MarioKart for the Wii yesterday. Sweeeeet.

underst8

No, unfortunately I am at work instead of stealing cars and smacking hoes. I did that until 4am last night and I am paying the price today lol.

Razzi

can we expect some acura reppin at this autocross then? i'm psyched to see a crowd lol

oh and im off to tint my rear

nitropwd

i'll be there.

seanranger3

hopefully i can make it. hey razzi what time you heading out there. could just follow you up. might be kinda cool to get all the acuras to drive up all at once.

Razzi

i dont even know. gotta ask josh and jorge when their crosses are. but i'm thinkin noon or so

seanranger3

that sounds good. i should be getting in friday but i got dinner plans with the grandma for her bday. pm me you info so we can hook up

GLowrdr

So kind of (really) off subject, and one of those left-field comments - but I thought I would share anyhow.

So at work, it's just me and my co-worker Tom. Now Tom is a little older, probably in his 50's. He's getting to be that age where we were talking about wine, and he mentions how he loves rasberries and continues on to tell me about how rasberries have so much fiber in them to scrub your body clean from the inside out.

That got me thinking (and kind of grossed out) - I'm pretty sure there is nothing in my body that some buffalo wild wings and whiskey can't take care of.

underst8

yeah, all these health freaks are missing the real solution. I agree with you Brian, a little fire-soaked meat to help empty out the works and some alcohol to kill the bacteria is all you really need.

Razzi

put about 5 blazing wings into your system and it'll be screaming for a wash out. just watch as everything in your body gushes out, now that's cleansing.

anyway, wings saturday morning and then roll out to the track together sounds good.

there's a b-dubs on
Buffalo Wild Wings Inc
5500 Wayzata Blvd # 1600, Minneapolis, MN 55416

and from there it's 29 mins to the valleyfair track

seanranger3

talking about wings. i am about to grill up some as i type. i will google b-dubs from golden valley. thats where my grandma stays.

Razzi

hey, this could be us

I'm back Beeetches!!!!

Razzi

welcome back josh, to commemorate your return i've decided to take pictures of my car
was a nice day so i washed her down and slapped some tan on her rear





so when's the autocross josh?

asujosh1

Saturday morning, bright and shiny. Racers have to be there at 7 or 7:30 for the first meetings, registration, tech, track walk, etc. I think the first time on track is 8:30 or 9.

It's nice to be home, but damn it was nice in PR. I really didn't want to come back, but that friggin hunk of crap Hyundai was getting on my nerves, it was in serious need of a horsepower infusion. Not to mention that if I never see another speed bump it will be too soon.

asujosh1

Damn it's good to see my avatar again!

Takata 18

Welcome back Josh. How was the trip. On Saturdays event Can I use SM helmet or do you have one I can use. We should plan on meeting and arriving together let me know.

asujosh1

I still have to check to make certain that my helmet is OK. Dan has also said you could use his helmet if you wanted.

Given that it is soooooooo early, I am thinking that I will just meet you there, or on the road to getting there. If I am on the way for you then we can meet up. I think Dan is going to roll with me and hang out while we drive and he is going to race on Sunday.

Razzi

damn that's butt early. looks like b-dubs gonna have to come after the cross

asujosh1

Racing is all about functioning on little sleep. Now you know why most professional drivers sleep in a motorhome at the track.

GLowrdr

Yea, so I dunno if I'm gonna make it for this race. Let me know how it goes I guess and we'll see if it's worth getting up at 6am for a drive to Shakopee.

Maybe I'll get up a little early and kick some butt with Mario.

Hey - I think I've brought this up before, but I think we should all go down to raceway park sometime. It's right across the street from Valleyfair. Some of the flag pole races, figure 8's and endurance races can be a blast. Not to mention they sell beer and dogs at a resonable price.

asujosh1

I wouldn't expect spectators to come at 7, I would actually recommend people plan on coming Sunday so that we can tell you what to expect and when to be there.

That said, if you want to come kick it on Sat, you are more than welcome!

seanranger3

i leave out sunday afternoon to come back to ne. sucks. razzi if your still going out let me know

Razzi

bad news guys, gotta go somewhere with my pops saturday morning, i'm free later on but it looks like it might have to be sunday

underst8

you a bitch razzi

From what I was reading, the first car goes off at 10. The morning is all registration, tech inspection, drivers meeting, course walk (multiple times), and then general prep.

asujosh1

We're going to have to change your name to 'punk-out' since you are doing it so often.

Did you get grounded from hanging out with us? Did we keep you out past your curfew or something?

Razzi

not my fault none of you guys have boobs >.>

i got places to go, things to do. you know i love chillin more than anyone

asujosh1

Your Pops has boobs?!
