Default Track weekend 4-11-09 - 4-12-09 56K warning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Whats up everyone, just got back from the track and it was a blast like always. I accomplished a lot this weekend, i turned my fastest time of a 1:37.06 and finally got my knee down (even though it slowed me down LOL) and raced in my first race. Also Winston (my dog) went to his first track weekend and my dad hung out for the first time also. We left friday around 1pm like always and normally it takes us about 3 hours to get the Jennings, but a semi broke down in the middle of 75 so it took up almost 5 and 1/2 hours to get there. But after getting there it was a great weekend.

Here are the pic's:

















Cooking steaks for dinner:






My dad arrived Saturday morning to hang out for a little bit:






He even gat the pit bike a try: LOL











Then i went out for a few sessions:




































And what do you know i touch the ground: LOL






Back out for a few more sessions on Sunday:






























I believe this is omar and myself (as we were playing for a few laps):








And coming a cross the finish line, it is.... Ryan for the win... LOL




Winston guarding the pit:














Last session before the race:












Setting up for a pass out of 11:












Again setting up another pass out of 11:










Gridding up for my first race:












everyone made it into corner one good, i got shuffled back to 5th behind the white 848 and i got stuck behind him till the last lap where i passed him deep on the brakes into 13. I finish 7th.












The 848 just had so much power on the straights that it was hard to do anything till the back half of the track:




















And here are some more the pro photographer:


































The knee pucks at the end of the weekend:





It was a great weekend and can't wait to go back. I will be back at the track may 2-3 so whoever wants to go should come up. It is a blast!!!!!

I don't know, he didn't do any of the track day other then the race. So i don't know why he is so special.
