IndyGT, Big Inch Blake, DriveBy and myself spent the day at this very nice country club track. Nice day, weather was gorgeous, and no damage or problems with any of the our cars. One guy in a Subaru broadsided a wall, and I threw up a little mud, but uneventful day otherwise. Will post pics later.

Good for you man.. happy to see you are enjoying the car !!:thumbsup
 
I'm there often to detail private race cars; no need for music because it's circling around the track outside :thumbsup
 
Frankie did you do some agricultural re-positioning? :confused

:eek Mud. :ack

We want video's!!!!!!!
 
Ha, the boys thought it was me that sprayed the track, but at lunch a guy in a Lotus admitted it was him. Didn't make any difference, they still gave me grief.

It was definitely Dr. Frank - the whole side of his car and half the track (thanks!) were covered in mud! :rofl
 
Yep!
I second that DriveBy!
It had to be Frank. Although he was always going soooo slow, I marvel how he got off course.

But a fun track day for us all!!!
Sorry no pics.
 
DriveBy has the video, but I think someone was making immoral gestures and he may not want to post.

As well, I would like to thank DriveBy for taking my niece and nephew for the rides of their lives, getting four wheel air at one time. They really, really enjoyed the time with DriveBy, IndyGT and BigInchBlake.

Blake's Shelby is really kick ass and the supercharger has a fantastic whine at speed.

Wow Frank,, look at you,, matching drivers suit.. You may not be fast but you look rather dapper....:biggrin
 
Wow look at Frank, he looks like he just stepped out of a Neiman Marcus Racing Catalog without the MUD. He must have had the windows up! Looking Good Frank, you look like your ready for Le Mans! Tomy

Great picture! This looks like something I would really like to do some day. This track is about an hour from me..How do you get to drive on it?
 
On a previous trip to Autobahn Country Club, I had an awesome time with Driveby showing my brother and I the fast way around the racetrack. Just wish the 911 TT I was driving had a little more for Driveby's beast of a GT.
 
Scooter, it was organized by an outfit called MVP Racing. They will have another event there in August I think. It was relatively inexpensive and very well run. Check out MVPs website.
