Mia and Justin have more brains than the BSR crew combined. I hope they get good jobs so I can keep racing.
The F355 Challenge cars look and sound great. They are not too expensive to buy, but very expensive to keep running.
See you guys at the track. Justin should be at LS on September 7th. It's his home track and he know it very well.

I was working safety when Karlooz lost his taillight cluster. We swept up all 214 (or was it 421?) pieces and left most of them in a tidy pile next to the trash bin by the safety crew easy-up.
I think they may still be there when we go back in Sept. Bring plenty of tape, Carlos.
I really do like the new paint, btw. Much more racy than the plain silver. You just need to lose the extra 100lbs or so to keep up the those 3's.

i'll be sure to bring plenty of tape for the next event. it's been a while since i've put together a jigsaw puzzle
100 less pounds, 100 more HP and a lot more talent to keep up with the blacksheep gt3s
actually. the car handles beautifully and i seem to catch up to a lot of gt3s out there until we hit the straights

Did they let you run there after? Or was that the last session before TT?

Really? John says he can't pull you on the straights?

LOL! Ya i saw you get black flagged and figured it was for the tail light. Actually b/c yellow or white (whatever i was in) lined up after blue/green i saw you John and Dave all get black flagged. You guys certainly hold true to Black Sheep Racing. LOL

the meatball was before that. i technically had 2 brake lights, the middle and the left so they cleared me for the next session.

oh you mean old faithful, LOL. water was practically gushing out. turns out there is a coolant bleeder thingamagiggy that the alternator attaches to. the vibrations caused the 8 bolts holding this plate to come lose... 2 of them almost out of their bores! a new gasket, 8 tight bolts and good as new. water pump is still good

And I thought your car was crying with all the abuse u gave it : ). Just ordered my flame suit but car still not quite ready. My clutch pedal is vibrating in gear and more so when downshifting. Clutch spring was just replaced so maybe it's missing a bushing or 2 : (. Regards. Mike

John clued me yesterday on what your "Black Sheep" thing was all about. How far PCA around here has come (gone?). You guys would not believe how fast/loose/close things were 10+ years ago.............but then everyone at the quick end of the grid went racing, and I guess there was a total turnover.
