Just got home. Gonna eat a dinner and get a little track time before I sleep. Gotta open up the store tomorrow...SMH I hate closing one night and opening the next day. Feels like I live at the store.

Ever have one of those dreams where you're just at work, doing your job, no crazy stuff happens, then you wake up and are like what the fk? I have those frequently.

 

[Scorpion0001]

not to sure about the rest of us but I NEVER dream about work!

I took a pretty good chunk of flesh out of my palm today. Left hand, just below the web between ring finger and pinky. I applied some Peruvian Angel Dust and let it rest. Got it to clot after about 30 minutes (that means it needs stitches). Stitches in this area will just tighten it up more and make my hand more useless. If I wrap it well enough to pad it I can probably still race. It was kind of crazy, the chunk flew off and stuck to the tip of my ring finger.

O man. Now that sounds like something I would have done. I usually coat it with some soldering flux, top with a dirty napkin from my van and then wrap with duct tape

 

[djchon661]

Ouch.


Anyways i'm going to jump online in a few minutes. Come join me if your online

Super glue can help big cuts/gashes

This may be shaping up to be a Spec race! Not sure what I'll show up with now. The Evora is a handful on Laguna but fast when I can keep it in line.

 

[djchon661]

I'm going to try out some gtrs tonight. My rx7 just doesn't have enough torque for this track.

 

[cbcvabch]

o man the dreaded hand injury had two of those seven stiches in the left hand that happen last may i remember racing in super tuner when that happened and on the right had two surgeries to repair a crushed thumb

 

[cbcvabch]

the hand doctor told ps3 is great hand therapy it well be fine in a week and half and after two weeks you can take the stiches out yourself

The Ford GT is awful quick, when I keep it on the track. With this tire selection I sure am getting my drifting practice. My concern is the end of a tire run. GTR's don't care as much about worn tires.

I really wanted to use the Evora, but I can't keep it steady in turn 6 or coming out of the corkscrew. I don't know if it has a short wheelbase or my tune is just not right. I may use it later in the season.

Tire wear is pretty good in the GT. Running hot laps I ran 15 and had 1/4 gone in the back and almost 1/2 gone in the fronts. Lap times at lap 14 were in the low 31's. I wouldn't push it any farther than that, although I get better wear in the race. Now as long a fuel isn't a problem........

Yeah, I'm just kind of trying it out for kicks. I've put low 1:29's down with it. And some high 1:39's too! Looks cool in that split pea soup color. That lightweight M3 works well though. I'll be testing out some of the "if you can't beat 'em join 'ems" tonight.

I've got a couple hours left in this awesome TT. https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=244632
Just can't pull myself away from the Ring. Ran it for over 4 hrs yesterday. Hoping for a podium in D3.

I'm about the same. 28's to high 30's through the tire cycle. At the end of 15 I have 1/2 rears and 3/4 fronts. Obviously I'm not pushing hard enough if I have fronts left.

I put some clot stuff in it, slathered it with Neosporin and set it out to dry. It's hard clotted and has a soft scab now so it should be ok. I managed to finish the duct work with it so driving looks possible.

My best finish in the WRS TT this week. Nurburgring Nordschleife in the 93 Alfa racecar.
3rd place in Division 3 behind a couple very fast racers. Division 3 Gold in overall time. And 6th place overall out of 39 w/handicapped results. The 1st and 2nd place overall w/handicapped results were the Division 3 racers ahead of me.

Hate to sound like I'm bragging but I've never done that well before. Some seriously fast guys race in those TT's. Time Travellers in Division 1.

Good work. You put in your time.

 

[Scorpion0001]

i'll be racing in the back this race, I can only get my Audi into the 32's at best usually 34's during racing!!

 

[boshuter]

Contracts ncr! I know how hard it is to do well in the wrs.

I mean "congrats"...... can't type on this phone!

 

[xR0ADRASHx]

Well, from the sprint races we had today this could be a very close race. We were all running around the same hot lap times and the group tended to stay in a pack. well except when we went off track to see if JT and Brett left any beverages behind from their last visit.

 

[cbcvabch]

on ign they say the network might be down on thursday

It says that it will be down Thursday from 8am to 10pm pacific time. DJ your going to have to reschedule.

 

[Godangit]

Might be a good thing. I was afraid Rash might fall asleep at the wheel and crash into the jet dryer truck and cause a huge explosion and 2 hour delay.
