So, Mr. Brokeass, I saw you dropping parts all over the track... What's the story behind it?

I don't like to think of it as "dropping parts". I like to think of it as "involuntary bumper modification". It's a straight exhaust with two O2 sensors welded into a 12 inches of pipe. The pipe fatigued and failed between the two sensors and went skipping over the top of Orlando's car. The unchanneled exhaust melted a nice hole in the bumper cover. It also melted the plastic bracket that held one of the bumperettes on.

The safety crew dropped the missing bits at my pit and I was able to find someone in town to weld it back together. It was ugly, but it got me on the track long enough to break something else.

. I sincerely doubt that anyone knows who you're talking about.

Most $ Lost Betting on UFC Fights Saturday Night - Orange GT3RS driver who likes mayo on his french fries
That's because some people enter the betting ring, win ONE STICKING round, and then quickly retreat to the bar with the profit


Purchased Most Patron Shots - The Lawnmower man of Bishops Bend
Some of those ended up on my bill, I politely asked them to remove them along w 2 white russians from my bill

Best Desert:
Armando killer shortbread cookies
Don't forget about the garlic sause for the steaks

Best tailgate - Not even a contest. Mr. Engle
No argument here.

Fastest car with the least track time Sunday - Boxing Cat Motorsports
Sorry, but I only had one session, then realized that both rear tires were corded after 3 trackdays. That explained why I could not get you in that session.

Had a great time but almost quit forever after the first session, could not believe how slow I was or more like it how fast you guys are. Had not driven for awhile and was very nervous for me and my shiny orange car. I am very impressed with the quality of the driving and the number of very fast cars. After a few sessions I decided that this is really a ball and I need to get up to speed. In the mean time it will be fun for you guys to pass an Orange car and you can pretend it was Erik. Hope to see you in September.

What do you mean pretend it was Eric. As far s I'm concerned, I passed Eric many times all weekend long; which made a great weekend even better !! : )

I could'nt go, what a shame!

Even though I am pretty shy and introvert, it sounds like I missed a good party.
And some good track time.
