I.T. Festival approved by Cincinnati BoD

What a waste of good water! Don't get me wrong; Bud's a great American company making some pretty decent German-style lager, but I'm long past polluting my body with the cheap stuff.[/b]

Yup, in many ways, it's like sex in a canoe. (Think about it. ;) )

So, for us adults, Scotch it is; bring your favorite. For you, Kevin, I'm buying all the beer, pizza, chips, etc you want, and I'll be right there calling out "Go Kevin! Go Kevin! Here's to Kevin, he's a damn fine guy! Here's to Kevin, he's a damn fine guy!"[/b]

No, no, that won't be necessary. I just need a camp fire, some chairs, and I'll bring my own assortment of frosty beverages. Nope, no Scotch for me, but a 12 pack sampler of Samuel Adams or Great Lakes sounds pretty good right now. Is it five yet?
 
Todd, I can recommend a good security company that uses only the best high-grade horse tranquilizers.
They did a good job dealing with the Ruck clan last year at ORP....

Wait.......what did I do? That was just Ian and I there last year, wasn't it? I can't say I recall getting very non-sober that weekend. Now at the 2004 event, when they had the roundy-round racing Saturday night, yea, I was drunk that night! :birra:
 
.....p, with like half the power. Damn my legal engine! ;)

Somebody fill me in on this legal engine comment...it implies a non legal engine on the podium...a reference to a questionable cold air inlet ?

Sorry for the off topic, back to your good natured trash talking....6 months, 1 week and 70 degrees to go!

I think it drives Kevin a little nuts that my car with a 150k original bone stock SR20 motor (with mis-matched valve shims) runs as fast in a straight line as his car. Greg's built SR20 pulls away! :eclipsee_steering:

Reference Greg's signature quote about torque....

I was referring to Greg's impound "scare" concerning his engine and also how that damn thing kills us Honda's in a straight line. But it was all found legal, the puzzling numbers were realized as to why they sounded puzzling, I know that, we've all talked about it several times before, and I'm joking around.

This is why trash talking on the internet largely doesn't work.
 
Ah, gotcha....sorry, I had heard "rumours" about something else not on either of your cars. I know of Gregs "math moment" and knew all was well there.

Carry on, sorry to interupt.
 
[EDIT] On second thought, this thread is too good to ruin by being serious... Kevin and Greg, you'll see me (i.e. the back of my Mid-O lap record holding car) at this one! Greg, are you planning on running the NARRC race at the Glen? We're trying to schedule it in...

Jake, if you've got something to talk to us about, you can find both us and our cars at this race...

With all the shit I've seen typed in this forum, I don't care what I'm doing that weekend.........I'm definately watching the ITA race! :D

Hey, I better be seeing you much sooner than that! Hopefully in the rearview... :cavallo:

I'm eyeing that event at The Glen pretty hard too. I think the Integra would likey very much.
 
What is the lap record for ITA at M-O?? This season will be my first in ITA, and I'm definitely planning on this weekend. It seems the times are similar to what we were doing in G Prod.

Joe, no veiled comments....

At the ARRCs, I heard some rumours about improper cold air ducting on the top cars...and in further discussions I recall those comments as being dismissed as a misunderstanding of what is allowed and whats not allowed. I was merely curious if thats what Kevin was referring to, and wasn't implying any wrong doing.

I know your cars have been looked over by lots of eyes, and have no doubt about your legality. As a matter of fact, I am long time friends with your engine builder, and have high regard for his product and integrity. I would be seriously disappointed and shocked to find anything improper coming from his shop.

Sorry if you read my comments as accusatory.
 
Peter,

I'm not sure of the ITA lap record at Mid-O. I can tell you that at the OVR National in 2006 Andy Deatherage won GP with a Suzuki Swift GT with an average lap time of 1.44.326
In the Autumn Classic Joe Moser won Saturday with an average 1:43.828. Mark Hopkins won Sunday with an average 1:45.593. Both were driving Honda CRX's.

Hope this helps,

Todd

P.S. glad to hear your planning on coming. It should be fun!

Now we are getting some where!!! Tell these wann-bes you are the man!
 
ITA - Joe Moser - Honda CRX Si - August 31, 2005 - 1:43.388
ITB - Scott Hileman - VW GTI - October 8, 2006 - 1:47.777
ITC - Devin Box - Honda Civic - October 8, 2006 - 1:48.503
ITS - Dan Jones - BMW 325 - October 8, 2006 - 1:43.327

Can you now see why I didn't want ITS and ITA to run in the same group at Mid Ohio? Also, as you can probably imagine, we had great weather October 8, 2006. I even ran a 1:43.309 in that mornings qualifying. I know, not an official track record, but I just wanted to remind Joey. :P

Those are all some pretty tough times, but I could see a couple of them falling if we get blessed with nice weather at the IT Festival. Except for maybe Devin's ITC record; that's just an absolutely insane time for an ITC car!

There we go, now the whole gang's here! This, folks, is gonna be a barn burner!

Joe, which race at the Glen do you mean? I really haven't thought much past March right now...post some dates and I'll see about making some commitments...I *really* want to snag that short course record from you-know-who...

I'm hoping for some nice weather as well! I would love to have the opportunity to race in the dry and snatch another track record! I can't wait to try and beat up on Dave and definetly Tim M. since he snatched that championship away 1 lap from the end! Whe else is going in ITB? I am betting on an entire NE podium in ITB! any other regions going to challenge us!

Stephen, both Scott Hileman and Chris Wilke are tough at Mid Ohio. You may remember Chris from the ARRC as he's made some runs there, including getting his old VW totalled on the start of the '04 (I think) race from the front row. That's ok though, his new one is faster and better looking. :D I know that you guys have some great ITB cars over there, but I imagine there will be a GLDiv car or two mixed in there with you.

Oh yea, and I've also decided that your username is too long. Please advise. :P
