    Orlando to Damn Diner

    October 20th The Damn Diner Part Tre !

    It's that time again. Orlando to the Diner and meet up with the Gainesville crew around 10:00 for some good food and reasonable prices. If you haven't made this run with F 86 and me down Thrill Hill,through Esmeralda and the last several miles to the diner are in for a treat.

    If "spirited " driving is not your cup o tea,we can have two groups,one touring and one led by me on a "spirited " drive BANZAI !

    Sign me up. Was there last year and the trikes were quite annoying. Not a fan of getting tickets, however.

    It better be sprinted. If not, I want directions and I will be waiting for Thumper to show up.

    Next year bring your sorry ass up to The Snake and we'll see who is waiting for whom ?

    Maybe Andrew will post the pic of his speedometer when he followed me to Kissimmee

    I love a person who is really confident. I didn't mean to underestimate ( not a good thing to do ) and I think we'll have some fun running together. Don't expect to be waiting very long if you do get there before me. If you do beat me I'll be there before you can exhale

    I checked out your profile..I may have to change my mind about you..Good God you have Yellow Yata listed as a friend ? Something is VERY wrong with you !

    Trikes are really more like moving chicanes or Chicago boxes. Tickets are a no no and while I may,no make that AM crazy I am not stupid. ( very often )

    As long as I been racing, I know some moves that will put some to shame. YY, I met him when I was getting onto the forums. I met him in person during the 2011 Miata at the Beach over at Fort De Soto. That was also when I met those over in the Tampa crew and Gearheads crew.

    Andrew, I running about 2:46 at Sebring Long Course I believe. That in Spec Miata. My last race, I finished 5th. All the national guys where elsewhere and I was running against the regional drivers. My best finish was 3rd, my second best was 5th. The top running cars run about a 2:30 in a lap for a fast time, and consistent about 2:34.

    That not bad at all. I'm still not use to make rights yet. I have circle track raced since I was 11. Left, Left, Left, Left. plus all the shifting is still kind of new. I gotten use to it but my heel and toe needs work.

    Gerald, I haven't heard anything from him in some time now.

    Gerald is having a few " issues " so I have invited him to ride with me. I speak to him on a fairly regular basis.
