Title: Re: Thanks California for letting us borrow your weather... Post by: low oval on May 25, 2010, 23:41:20 pm Very nice Pics. 2 things:
1. I dig that willy's, BAD ASS! 2. you guys are driving on the wrong side of the street Looked like a very nice so-cal day. Title: Re: Thanks California for letting us borrow your weather... Post by: Fiatdude on May 26, 2010, 00:17:22 am You're just joking that that was Santa Pod -- Not overcast -- no one wearing a snuggy -- -- a beautiful day -- looks like great racing too
Title: Re: Thanks California for letting us borrow your weather... Post by: Speed-Randy on May 26, 2010, 00:22:27 am where are the timeslips ???
Title: Re: Thanks California for letting us borrow your weather... Post by: Dez on May 26, 2010, 00:29:48 am Cheers guys ;D yep it is Santa Pod!
I'll let those who ran the times stick their slips up ;) Congrats to all who ran the times, all the hard work pays off (you know who you are ;))when you see the digits in the distance illuminate! Title: Re: Thanks California for letting us borrow your weather... Post by: jamiep_jamiep on May 26, 2010, 12:22:54 pm See pure Racing for a write up and more pics, along with a few times....
Mainly 13's through the day - I ran a 14.0 in a loaned car (the green looker on anthracite 356 steels). Quickest aircooled ET of the day was a 12.152 for the blue 1303, followed closely by a 12.158 from Johnny in his Gulf Blue rag on gold ERCO's (John torched a head on that run :( ) Take a look... http://cal-look.no/lounge/index.php/topic,12618.0.html Title: Re: Thanks California for letting us borrow your weather... Post by: Peter Roberts on May 26, 2010, 16:33:01 pm Neal in the black Oval ran 12.64 , belt on 8)
Title: Re: Thanks California for letting us borrow your weather... Post by: jamiep_jamiep on May 26, 2010, 18:25:55 pm I was impressed by the sheer number of runs Neil had, he never stopped going around! Makes a nice change when its so often very difficult to get a good amount of passes in to have the opportunity to just do as many as you like. I literally could have done 40 passes if I could have survived the heat.

Yes I'm sad cuz You guys had a grate time (as always) and I wasn't there. I hope I'll visit "the islands" in the time next Drag day will have place. By the way her in Poland some racing action has place also. Think about visiting Poland one day guys ;) Maybe we don't have Santa Pod but hot chicks and Race America timing gear do the thing :) I'll post some dates of racing near to the boarder. cheers and see You guys.

i love this pic of Jamie running my car - just because of the heat haze rising from the strip, very So Cal (http://i708.photobucket.com/albums/ww86/allmenplayon10_2009/drag%20day/DSCF2365.jpg) Title: Re: Thanks California for letting us borrow your weather... Post by: Rick Meredith on May 30, 2010, 06:25:01 am great pic i love this pic of Jamie running my car - just because of the heat haze rising from the strip, very So Cal (http://i708.photobucket.com/albums/ww86/allmenplayon10_2009/drag%20day/DSCF2365.jpg) Yeah... except that the foliage is all green instead of brown! :D Title: Re: Thanks California for letting us borrow your weather... Post by: youngnstudly on May 30, 2010, 22:31:00 pm You can borrow our weather anytime! Especially the "lovely" weather that the North Bay had this week...Rain, clouds, a little sun (5 minutes later), then non-stop showers for 2 hours, then light clouds with a hint of sunlight (etc.). I hate that weather!!! All this technology in the world and nobody can figure out how to make it rain only at night time, and all the other times make it like 75-85 degrees! Oh well, I bet the Sac. BOR is nice today though.

I took these pics yesterday morning! Title: Re: Thanks California for letting us borrow your weather... Post by: youngnstudly on June 05, 2010, 19:38:10 pm Here ... you can have THIS California weather... You don't even have to give it back! ;D I took these pics yesterday morning! See, now that would be another part of my devious plan to control the weather....Make it rain on some nights, and make it snow on other nights (like winter nights when you don't have anything to do). I would really hate living in the snow (especially where you are! California's supposed to be sunny!) but at least you got a reason to snuggle with your sweetie! Don't even get me started on the weather here! It's killing me! Horrible 80 degree day with lots of sunshine, not a cloud in sight, and tons of women wearing tank tops, short shorts/skirts, and pretty smiles....I HATE the "look but don't touch" policy society has established! ;D Where's the fun in just looking??? ??? Not to mention the fact I am indoors (like an idiot!), stitching up upholstery for my car while it's beautiful outside! Andy |
