Well my 240 isn't ready and not running....

....so I'll be in my Mom's 09 GT instead! Haha. I may need some advice from you Chris, as I never beat on this car to much. Not going to push it 100%, stock everything! 5 speed car though, so that rocks.

Stock brake pads and fluid?

Ace · 07-15-2011, 07:12 PM

It's only got 15 or so thousand on it haha. Babied.

I'll probably do 2-3 sessions in blue with it, and then use Ray's NX for the other 2 sessions (or some variation of it). it's to late for me to bleed it all over to ATE blue, especially being that I only have half a bottle left :D

Oh well, we'll see. If they have track pads for sale there maybe I'll swap them on haha. I could only my parents complaining of the dust.

Still trying to sort hte 240 out though...last ditch effor

Chris B. · 07-16-2011, 07:01 PM

The track was packed. There were more people there than the usual Pocono event. I saw John, Ace, Jack and Khellen there. I saw Furious George's car but I didn't meet him. Same with l337fpc, I think I saw the car, but not you. The instructor that sometimes shows up to the Wed night Applebees meets was also there.

Overall, it was a good day. Everyone seems to have a good time on the track. Khellen got plenty of pictures when his camera was working.

I have the new Mustang set up pretty well. However, I do have a new clunking noise in the front end over some bumps that I have to figure out.

Great time! Pictures are soon to follow!

Chris crossing the finish line!

Jackolafedon · 07-17-2011, 09:40 AM

Definitely had a blast doing this! Was good to see the few that did actually make it out. Thanks for all the work setting this up Chris!

Khellen · 07-17-2011, 08:28 PM

Some more pics so people can kick themselves for missing this event:

More to come. Trying to edit as fast as possible...haha

Chris B. · 07-18-2011, 10:13 AM

I'm happy everyone enjoyed it. We'll have to do it again in the fall. Pocono will have the infield safety barriers down after the last NASCAR race there in August and we will be able to run the double infield course that weekend.

Honest_Bob · 07-18-2011, 07:45 PM

Awesome pictures as always Jerbear!

Is that the EFI Logics SVX swapped GC?

Furious George · 07-19-2011, 10:05 AM

Yep, awesome time. Real track time does take a toll on the car. Had a small issue with a reported brake fire on the first session (I didn't see anything upon inspection), a charge pipe that popped off in the last session, and 2 of my 4 exhaust hangers busted (from what seemed like a speed bump coming around turn 1). Could definitely tell the difference in the car between the cooler AM sessions and the warmer PM session.

Overall all though, it was great. Didn't get a chance to meet as many people as I wanted to, but those I did meet were really cool people. I look forward to more events (as time and money permit)!

Thanks Chris for posting this up all that time ago, it got me motivated!

We were all wondering if you were a TST member since your car looked familiar. I took some pics of your car just in case....I'll post some up when I get home today.

Next time we go out to an event we all need to find a way to get in contact with each other. Me, Ace, Chris, and Jack all managed to meet up during the event. It's a shame you didn't join the party!

Pics from my gallery thread:

It didn't sound/look like it, Jack's car was that purple/blue color, but they could have easily resprayed it.

That bump was a doozy wasn't it? Even in the bone stock car it was hairy to hit that thing at speed. It probably was a good/bad thing, as there were much less incidents in that corner this year than in years past...it used to claim a ton of cars.

According to facebook and EFI's page that car is owned by Mike Sousa. I think you guys might be talking about another car.
