    What I've been up to....

    So I've been away a while with my car stuck at the office for nearly 6 months with no 3rd or 4th gear and pretty much stayed away from the Corvette scene (lost the 3 and 4 clutch packs in August). My trans guy said he was surprised the car made the 4 mile drive home for me to finally work it...

    FAST Autocross - Tampa Bay Downs - June 15

    Here's the info for the June event at FAST. June 15th at Tampa Bay Downs Just have to sign the insurance waiver, get a wrist band, and you can ask around for ride-a-longs. I'm certainly more than happy to have passengers. Looks like it's going to be a fun course! Event is closed for new drivers...

    Florida Corvette Racing Club - June 1, 13

    First time out with the FCRC and man what a great time. Very different from what I'm used to, so it took a couple of laps to get straight, but ended up putting down some solid numbers. I didn't get to stay for the free runs in the afternoon, but I was 5th out of 39 after the first two rounds...

    20th Annual Corvettes @ The Pier - May 25

    Anyone going to the SunCoast Corvette club's Pier show this weekend (May 25th)? Of course it's no longer being held on the St Pete Pier, but it's being held just off of the Pier. Hope to take my 2yr old in the morning. Just look for the kid with a GoPro strapped to his head. :rofl1: South...

    Thought about autocrossing?

    For those in the greater tampa bay area I highly recommend checking out FAST if you want to have a little more legal fun in your vette. If I can make it around in my truck (although I got lucky this course was a tad more open than normal), the vette is quite easy. Every month is a different...

    [C4] Latest Autocross in St Pete

    Another fantastic event at the SPC Police Training Facility in St Pete with the FAST group. Finished 8th overall, and 2nd in class (damn miatas). Was a short, but VERY fun course. Finally got to put the new Van Steel coilovers and double adjustable shocks to use, along with some good abuse on...

    New iPhone App for track/autox guys

    Optrix VideoPro. It combines video and some minor data acquisition. For us autocross guys, it'll actually draw out the track. For track guys, you can save the course. It pretty much just shows speed, top overall straightaway speed and top corner speed. I find it's a nice addition to my videos...

    Photoshoot at Eagle Lake Park

    Just had to get out of the office for lunch, the car was somewhat freshly cleaned, and I had my camera at work. So I headed down a couple of blocks to Largo's Eagle Lake Park to snap a few pics and do some more showing off of those 17x11's from OE Wheels in Sarasota. I think they came out pretty...

    Local Corvette Racing!

    After almost a year layoff of autocrossing, I was able to get the ole girl out and test out those massive 315s! Well, overall they felt fairly good. I think the newness hadn't worn off yet and made them a little slick. Made for some very fun racing though. Next race for me won't be till stinking...

    The ole girl get's new shoes!

    Just picked them up this morning! Hope to have them mounted on the car tonight, if I'm not working late since I had to wait to have the tires mounted at a different shop as OE Wheels' tire mounter broke. That part sucked, but they got me taken care of and I'm stupid excited about this wheel...

    Black Y2k Wheels $200

    Gauging interest at selling my daily driver wheels as I'm thinking of getting a new, wider set for my autocrossing needs. The tires have little tread left on them, but I won't have a chance to have them dismounted. No road rash, some minor chipping that I'll have touched up. Great for daily...

    Chrome shop?

    Anyone know of a good chrome shop in the tampa bay area? Preferrably in the Clearwater/St. Pete area. I'd like to see what it'll cost to get my cheap track wheels de-chromed and lose a few ounces. :peelout 1:

    12 Hrs of Sebring Roll Call

    Anyone else going this year? We'll be at our usual spot on the outside of Turn 1, sporting a Jake flag, and this year also an LSU flag... :dancer01:
