Thanks to the DE crew of Chuck Sharp & Curt Yaws as well as the CDI team of Keith Verlaque & David Gardner and especially to Jad Duncan for bringing it all together for a great event.
Here are the thumbnail pics from the lecture:

Greg, Thanks for the great pics! I had a blast out there. Is this where the slippery slope gets a little steeper?? :lol:

Does anybody have video from this event?

As Greg P. would say: "Smoke 'em if you got 'em." :lol:

... and "Lucky Dan" was wondering why he ate through the rear tires? :roll:

Everybody's a comedian... :lol:

It's my new technique to keep anyone from following too closely.. :lol:

Good Idea Dave! Avatar it is!

Dan C., the smoke was from the front tires , they had to work much harder with the 225's in the back...On the drive home it was like riding in the Flintstone mobile...thump..thump..thump.... :lol:

Dan,

With the car that low, you can't even see your feet pushing the Flinstone mobile. :lol:

Suuuuuure it was .... yeah, the front tires..... that's the ticket. :lol:

Yeah, I know it was the fronts. BTW: I was in the black car behind you on at least two of your "foggings." I was blind going in to the 180 at the bottom of the hill. Talk about your carbon loading of the atmosphere! :lol: I think the APCD (Air Pollution Control district) is looking for you. :oops:

I guess you were on fire Sunday, Lucky-Dan .... 'cause where there's smoke there's fire. :roll: :lol:

That "slippery slope" is misleading. You can only take a couple of steps down that path before you fall of the edge of the planet. I had a really nice car before I met you guys...

Welcome to the club!!!

We all had nice cars, now we have faster cars, less money and a lot of friends to explain why we are not going as fast as we should in our fast cars!

See you at BW!
