Thanks for the compliment, I'm anxious to see the video, because I haven't been able to film my car properly yet and see how it sounds from the outside.
I've tried on 2 or 3 occasions to get video with my digital camera and the tiny little microphone inside sucks, so it's always distorted.
As for the race, It was cool to come out ahead in the first race, but if me and Richard went to the track and ran numbers with a timeslip - he'd have me.
No question.
That little rocket of his is violent. I still have nightmares about how angry that thing pulls from 2nd into 3rd gear.
Hope to see you out at the next GTG, if you can't make it, we'll play a hand in honor of Bartvaio's Red Bull.

I'd be happy to let people drive my car if they want, as long as they bring it back in one piece.
Except Nam, of course.
I've seen that nut drive cars and karts and I wouldn't even let him near my Huffy.
As for the buy-in, we can keep it civilized with a simple $20 bill.
If it sounds like a decent idea, we could gather all of the money up, use it to buy pizzas delivered to the office, and whatever's left gets split between 1st and 2nd place.....2/3rds & 1/3rd.
I'm guessing it would be around $200 - $30-$35 for pizza.
1st would get around $110 and second would get $60.
That means for a $20 investment you get a fun afternoon of cards, lunch delivered to you, and and a chance to win a little over 5x your buy-in.
I'm open to any other ideas if someone has a plan.

But at 290HP and 330+ TQ, you may want to hold on with both hands.....

No worries. Happy to do it....
We're a fairly well-mannered group, (When not on a freeway) so I trust that everyone will be cool and have fun.
As I mentioned previously, I only have 2 tables, so can anyone provide one more to make sure we have enough?
I'm pretty sure I have us covered as far as chips and decks of cards are concerned. Just need an extra table-top.
