Yeah, it's going to be pretty sad for those guys that work on Lingenfelter Vettes watch a Spec Barbie work on spinning those drums...

Let me know if we would get a group discount

Either way, let me know if you ahve room, as I might be able to show up as well. I'd really like to get a couple pulls - one with the mufflers, and one with some bypass pipes on. I've always wanted to know the gain/loss...

Cool, then guaranteed you wouldn't hit them.

Here's some more video from the 2nd White session on Sunday. Several rennlisters appear including ervtx who I never could shake that run, and eclou. VR's helmet snorkel makes multiple appearances from the right seat.

Once we get through the TWS club race, I'll give John a big swift kick in the butt and help get the darn thing rebuilt.

Yep, at some point we need to stop talking and start cranking. Dropped mine off last night for the glass repair; thanks for the tip.

BTW, your racing mirror is a better alternative to my rear-facing camera #2.

I love the way my wheels do that optical illusion thing of turning very slowly and reversing direction while going through the carousel and in T13. I should cancel that order I placed for spinners.

I'm surprised some admin hasn't given me an infraction for that snorkel.

I imagine they are frantically using their bicycle pumps to lengthen the nubs on theirs

Can you just drop the left 3/4 of your avatar please?

Reminds me of the Sesame Street song... "Three of these things belong together, one of them just doesn't belong..."

Looks like I was in the wrong part of the group yet again, not seeing me in there. Hopefully some more vids will show up...

Just to be clear, that was the pseudo Black Stig that was driving (note black helmet, shirt and gloves). Yours truly has way too much extra ballast (~50 lbs)! Shows what the Spec Barbie can do.

I see the Waco Kid on Saturday afternoon and all he could say was "I hate you"...
