You are correct. I looked up the wrong driver in my attempt to get it finished quickly and get a combo announced. I apologize for my mistake.

This would mean that there is a tie in votes between the R390 and the Silvia. The tie-breaking procedure in votes of this nature is that the suggestion that was made first during the nomination process gets the tie-breaker.

In this case the R390 was suggested before the Silvia so the tie would go to the R390.

Have both cars been raced before?
Maybe we could pick the one that hasn't been raced if there is ever a tie again.

In this particular case, they have both been used before.

The best tie breakers are those that don't leave the possibility of a tie after they are utilized.

I like the executive discretion better.. anyway.. the fast Datsun is a much better looking car!

I do as well, just thought it was a good joke for a Friday morning!!

 

[RobbiefromBC]

Congratulations Robbie! Now just get that car done. Does he have a FaceBook, Twitter or Instagram account that we could like or follow to show our approval of sponsoring you?

He just has a personal facebook page where he uploads a few photos every bow and again, he mostly takes photos just because he enjoys it and wants to help promote the sport. He doesn't really consider it a business per say, so there isn't much to share in terms of social media... He does have Twitter but it's rarely active. Go check him out @ spudrace

 

[STEAMER62]

Ahh, the R390 is a marvelous car

 

[TomMang_68]

Meh - we are using the (ugly to me, lovely to others)road car

what is not to like about a road car that can/could go up to 220mph in '97 ?

The only weird thing for me is braking for the Turn 1/2 complex. It's the only place on track that truly upsets the car and I'm still trying to figure out the smoothest AND fastest way through there. Otherwise yea, it's a hoot!

For turn 1 and 2?

At Apricot Hill

I just keep it close and tight to the inside. the middle and outside has very little grip.
I find the chicane more challenging.

 

[DesertPenguin09]

But lots of hard braking or trail braking or ?

Oh, I don't mind the speed or the drive, it just looks kinda funny to me...like something you would see George Jetson flying around in.

I thought it kind of looked like this...

I guess the roof is a bit more bubbly though.

Just got home from a midnight shift... Didn't leave 'til 12:30 and people were still not even close to done with their sections. I did my section, staged the rest for the morning crew, and called it a night. Beer is tasting mighty fine right now.

Beer has been tasting mighty fine for about 5 hours now. That's the beauty of having banker's hours.

 

[DesertPenguin09]

I used to have great hours getting out by 10 the latest and usually 8 or 9 but they switched it up about a month ago.

Basically Sunday and Monday I don't work past 8pm (for racing), and Thursday I'm always off. So I've been getting 4-midnight every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday/Saturday.
