Broseff, i would say the opposite.
In about 50 events, it has rained 3 times off the top of my head.
Thats an extremely high average for California.

this event.

the one where lil jack was flying off the side of the track.

Oval, when I could drift 3rd, lol

Cool... cant wait ... for it !!!

I tried to stay night before near by but hotel prices are "CRAZY" !!!!

wonder where I should stay..

Post whore of the year goes to...

Steve! Post up a thousand more times to accept this reward...

On a more serious note, drifting in the rain on a big open track like Balcony should be a blast ~ really lets you feel what it's like to get into the meat of 3rd on entry with a slower car, and you'll still notice how much faster the good guys are mid-drift.

fckillerbee · 02-18-2010, 05:58 PM

yeah...I was gonna ask how you can hit 10k posts in 3 years....what is your post count per day?

GSXRJJordan · 02-18-2010, 06:11 PM

I won't be driving, no power steering being the largest issue. A couple small ones also.

I may cruise up to cheer/assist but probably not ~ lots of customer work to catch up on. Good luck fellas!

Im not babying it completely either.

I am going to seat those motha fucken rings.

Oh yeah, SR still hasnt been started either by the way hahaha had to do some custom things and what not so its taking me a little bit.

Hopefully today!

lol, i know nieko...i was just simply asking how many miles you'd put on it...i went to willow with cody to break his motor in and after half a day we were sliding it around

mildcore break in ftw. cody's car is a fucking beast btw, i am jealous.

i was confused why pple were posting up there setup, but it looks like alot of you fellas are comin out with some actual cars!!! (although a single slammer with coilovers and a welded would suffice with the learning curve)
i can't wait, it's gonna be so much fun. fuckin 626 back in action.

Yeah, but check the hour-by-hour. Looks like some rain till 6:00am and then a short bit in the afternoon.

But that damn desert and mountain range does cause problems for weather prediction.

*DALAZ_68* · 02-19-2010, 10:55 AM

Chris- me and Devin are rollin up on saturday morning...lol

There's only two ways to go. Either you're fucking sweating like a mad man or freezing your nuts off.
