What part of Cincinnati are you in?

Counting myself, there are 4 Evom'ers here this weekend already. Today was awesome, I LOVE TT!!! I am exhausted though, see you guys tomorrow.
EDIT: For those of you interested in going to Putnam Park in October
If you can't volunteer between now and then to get free track time in October, if there is enough participation I may be able to get a discounted Evom rate for the event from NASA. No promises, but if I can get firm commitments from enough people I think I can make it happen.

Greg and Eli
I had a great time at mid-ohio thanks for the invite. Greg I have a few pics of you on track if you are interested send me a message with your email and I will send them to you. Maybe next spring I will have my crap together and can give it a try for myself. It looked like a lot of fun.

Glad you could make it up and had a good time Joe, next time I'll get you on the track during a session - I think Eli enjoyed himself! I'll send you a PM for the pics, I'm a ***** when it comes to that stuff. You don't need much to get started, just a free weekend, a helmet, and a safe car.

Give me a call and we can try to work the same event together. I'd also like to run for free if I can find the time to work an event
There aren't many left to work though.

I'll be going, as will Greg. I'm also talking to Bruce about going with the Sparco Evo.

You should try and make it to Putnam one day even if you can't run.

Yep, boiled the fluid 7 times in 8 sessions. Hauling 3400 pounds down from 140 mph will tend to do that though. Other than killing my tires, it was a great weekend.
You guys need to work Mid Ohio in August (11-13). I'll be at Mid O on friday running but not working. Hopefully the rollbar and harnesses will be in by then. I've heard volunteering for the Nationals in September will not equate to free track time. I have to confirm that though.

OK guys, I have some stuff I'm contemplating selling. I'm not looking to get rich here, but I may be doing some upgrades and need some cash to fund them.
Coolingmist alcohol injection kit - complete kit without resevoir. Big pump, clogged nozzle detector, on/off switch, water solenoid, boost switch, and a big enough nozzle to run 27+psi on 93 octane. Installation could also be arranged. $200
Stock Enkei wheels - I have two sets, I may sell them both I'm not sure yet. One set does not have center caps. $400/set
245/40-17 Hoosier R3S03's - set of 4. They are used, not much left for track use but would make great auto-x tires. Eli and I drove these tires to a 1-2 finish in Street Mod last year at the final Ford plant event. Currently mounted on one of the sets of stock wheels. $200
245/40-17 Yokohama A032r's - set of 4. Also used and not really suitable anymore for track use, but would make excellent auto-x tires. I drove on these to and from every event I used them at, and there is plenty of life left in them. They are the soft compound. $200
The only trades I would consider for any of this stuff is a set of 17x9 or 17x9.5 wheels that fit the evo.

Yay rollbar! Oh, get this -- I shipped the Xede on Monday to have it deliver today. Vishnu didn't answer the f'ing door!!! So now it's scheduled to deliver tomorrow -- they are putting me in a bind yet again. If by some miracle they get to it tomorrow and ship it that day -- i'll eat my hat!
