Me sucking at Desoto

My gf took a couple videos I guess are worth posting with her little camera phone. I need to buy a digital video recorder, so I can have her film alot more. Anyways I spent the day trying to link the infield.

[onezx2ner]

Yeah I actually back up into one of the time I spun earlier in the day.

Maybe you can ride along with me at Moroso, you are still going right?

[box240mod]

Yea just w/o my car.

[???]

damn phone video has gotten really good.

[onezx2ner]

Oops I dont know why I put that, probably looking down at my phone typing. It was a digital camera.

next event is a nopi qualifier on mar2 at the moment, but this may change since no one is signing up.

keep an eye out for next event date

Everyone is probably waiting to see what happens at Moroso. I know I plan on going, but just hard to shell $100 for Moroso and then another $60 for Desoto.

[box240mod]

well, if you are planning to go pro and attend the series... and those 2 costs are concerns...

i estimated my gas cost last year at $4,000 and entry at $1200 for 8 events.... plus hotels/food another $1500...

looking at $7k just to do it IF you get free tires, and already have a truck/trailer. (which can easliy be another $10k to get)

[onezx2ner]

Yeah, but you know what I mean, I hear you talking about ballin on a budget all the time. I can't believe you got away so cheap in gas. I'm going to pulling with a f-350 duallie now and plan to start up a little experiment in my garage to run bio-diesel. Just got to find a place that can hook me up with a steady used oil supply.

There is no doubt that you need sponsors to drive the nopi series. I'm just seeing if this is something that I can stay interested in, because everything else I have lost interest in the past. Was heavy into riding crotch rockets and wanted to race them had 2 or 3 and completely lost interest, not too mention how hurt you can get.

Drifting has my full attention and its all I think and talk about. I have been watching in-car of Moroso kart track so I go out there and already know the line. It seems that drifting is starting to die down some and I would like to do anything to keep people interested in it, so that we have legit places to do it. Streets might be good for those looking for trouble, but I'm a bit older and don't need any of that anymore.

[MCD350]

id spin out atleast 2 + times a run........

[onezx2ner]

Atleast your spinning out...before you were just doing alot of understeering. That practice day all to your self did you alot of good, by the way next time call a nigga.

I believe if your not spinning out your not doing something right, this is on your way to gaining car and throttle control.

That blue tooth ecu is sweet though.

im just making the argument that if 100$ and 60$ for those who are trying to get a license are too much, they need to rethink what they are doing in the first place.

[onezx2ner]

It could just be a peronsal achievement, a goal if you will.

you can hook your truck up to run off of grease. then go around to resturants, they will give it to you for free. person i worked with did it to her old diesel MB
