And Gary comes through again. I have Saturday's times at home , but did not get Sunday's. George said he would have them posted as soon as he could, but he won't be as fast as Gary, ha,ha.

Actually Theresa came through! She was the only one organized enough to keep copies :p

Here you go Dean. This is Sunday:

Thanks Gary. Looks like my fastest lap was my last session. Seems like there was some orange car that I was running from. ;)
Trying to chase you that last session was the most fun I had all weekend! :D I'm just disappointed I couldn't catch you so you'd have some video of my car and Drew would get off my back :p
 
After "lurking" here for quite sometime, I finally decided to register and make my first forum post ever...on any forum!

The '11 Grabber Blue project is mine hot-rod. It's starting to come around after a year of ups and downs for the car. It's working pretty good, but I have a few winter project ideas in mind for it. I'll get a list of the mods together, it's going to take awhile to make the list....it really is a sickness.

I spent some time this weekend talking with Loran Keller from Open Track Connection, that friendship might melt my creditcard. Great guy and he was flying on Sunday...that was fun to watch.

That session on Saturday was the most fun I've had on-track in a long time.

Dean's save was awfully fun to watch from my seat :eek:...he stayed on the gas and used up every bit of asphalt to bring that back around. The skid marks show how it could have gone. There aren't many of us that would pulled that one off! ;)

My wife has a sequence of 5 or 6 photos of Dean's save and I have the gopro version that'll be downloaded sooner than later.

Most people know me as "Gary's buddy".....I'll start trying to be more active online. You guys are a pretty cool community and are definitely doing a great job spreading the word and helping make events like this possible. I can't wait for next year and see how big this Roundup gets. I think almost everyone who attended last year came back for #2.....It's going to bigger in '13!

Thanks again for all of those that attended and I hope to see more of you next year. George, Bill, Gary, Todd, Loran, John, our wives, and a whole bunch of others pitched in to make it a great weekend.

Thanks again for getting it together and letting me come out and hang out with all of you guys!

Kevin,

You can list all your mods at the bottom of your profile to intimidate your fellow competitors, just like Gary does. It will be more impressive than those guys that list ridiculous items like clear bra, Goodridge brake lines, and tranny scoops, just to try and emulate Mr. Gasper's extensive list with things that have no value, but fill up alot of space. Welcome ...............er...........gotta go, need to add tinted windows to my upgrade list!!!!

About time you showed up. I think they were starting to wonder if I just had an "imaginary" friend. ;D

That OTC Foxbody must be one heck of a race car.
Yes indeed. I can't remember all he's done to it, but I do know it has an SLA and an engine putting down mid 4ish at the wheels. The aero was also really impressive.

It had an Agent 47 front SLA and Griggs World Challenge in the rear.
And of course he could drive pretty well too. ;D

Dean, didn't realize you almost joined the tire/guard rail club!

Kevin, glad to see you've joined the forum world!

Anyone know of video editing software for a Mac that will downsize .mp4 files to a more manageable size? I had my phone set on high video resolution, and each lap is a 200MB file! Youtube says 3 hours to upload. :eek:

Here's a lap from Saturday. I chased down the Shelby in earlier laps, and reeled him in on this one. I parked by him in the paddock and he said he tracks several times a year.
