Seeing those nice vids shot from simon's camera, I fooled around and shot a drifting video. hehe..
Track meet at DaV's
Here're photos and videos of last night's track meet. Some awesome video footage taken by Burnham - check it out! Great fun guys! The 01/015 stock class race was even more exciting than the mod class! hahaa.
PLEASE READ: Drivers Etiquette!!!
Came across some racers etiquette (driving guildlines) today, and thought I'd share it with everyone. The point of these "guidlines" is not to restrict the fun, but rather it makes it more enjoyable for everyone, and would prevent a lot of avoidable damages to our beloved cars :P
Those in bold are especially important:
• Be respectful of others in your language, attitude and driving. (don't drive like it's a derby)
• Never criticize a turn marshal.
• Never lose your temper at yourself or others, it brings everyone down.
• Do not handle other people's equipment without permission at anytime, stay away from a drivers pit if they are not present.
• When holding any car, never ever-ever touch the tires.
• During practice sessions you should drive reserved, keep a good distance from other cars on the track.
• Strive to pass cleanly, or to be passed cleanly.
• Do not stop your car anywhere on the track that it may be liable to a collision from on-coming traffic on the track. There will be an established area on the track for drop-off / pick-up.
• If you wreck, don't reverse into oncoming traffic, wait for traffic to pass before backing up from the rail, re-join without causing a collision.
• Come prepared with everything you will need.
• Be ready for your race or heat, nobody should have to wait to start a race.
• Keep your pit space to a minimum, there is no reason someone should ask you to size down.
• Bring your own power cords and power strips.
• Always bring a pit towel to protect surfaces provided to racers.
• When you are turn marshalling, always give rightaway to the racers running, stand on the tracks edges not the surface. Try to stay out of driver’s views best as possible, and move at a controllable speed !!!…we don’t want a turn marshal to fall down and causing injury to themselves, cars, or the track…
• It is important to acknowledge when you unintentionally bash into other cars on the track. ( a “sorry” is good, but that gets annoying after three or four times in one session…)
• If you have stopped or crashed in the straight away for some reason…call out “straightaway” to warn others that your car is there.
• When you experience mechanical problems, you should have your car pulled off the coarse…if you are intent on completing the race as is; you should not affect any other driver’s race in anyway. If you leave the driverstand to go fix your car, do it without distraction to your fellow racers.
• Never walk in-between the driverstand and the track during practice or racing. This is no mans land! Always enter & leave driverstand from behind drivers.
• If you’re having a bad day, don’t ruin it for everybody else
It would serve us well to become familiar with these guidelines, espcially now that we have more drivers during each "track-meet", and also if we plan on joining outside races in the future. :)
Please comment on other things that you can think of, and to add to the list!
NEW PROPOSED LAYOUT FOR MY BASEMENT
.jpg)
I AM THINKING OF REVISING THE CURRENT LAYOUT TO MAKE THE TRACK MORE ENTERTAINING. GUYS, PLEASE VOTE WHICH ONE YOU LIKE BETTER. INPUTS ARE MUCH WELCOME!!!
NEW (YELLOW) KIDS ON THE BLOCK
Please welcome our new family members including (2) MR-02MM and (1) MR-015. As for bodies, we have a wide variety including a White PanCar, a yellow 360, a yellow Enzo and a yellow Altezza. The fun is piling up, dude.
New Autoscale bodies!
I might keep some of these as they are so nice.. others might be sold off as part of a package on ebay. Decisions decisions.
The AE86 Trueno is definitely a keeper though, as it'll be the body to Simon's new 015 to terrorize a a mountain.... eh.. track, near you!
A few more pics from camera 2 of the same photo shoot!
and btw, the "Fly" is back!!! ~buzzzz..zzzzz..zzz~~
