some pics from mich.intl.speedway

they are from the marlbro ride with the pros day a while back. its me in the indy car, and the one is of my wife signing the realease forms incase we might have died in a big ball of fire lol. thats a panos gt1 racecar in the background of my wifes picture. we got a ride in that as well. they wouldent let me drive the indy car tho i told them i could handle it . lol. pictures are in gallery, couldent get them on post said they were to big and wouldent let me change the size.

How was the g-force in there? Memorable or comparable to roller coasters. When I tossed my wife's old car around at VIR, it was kind of lame...'07 Corolla, 0 g-force lol. I drove that car better than the MINIs on Fuji, that's for sure. FWD, bleh.

Corolla = 0 G-Force
Corrola XRS = Some G-Force

Didn't know 1Eyed was a pro racer and a musician

we got 2 laps around the big oval , iroc mustangs . 3 laps around the infield road track. panos gt1 . 5 min on the skid track in a 2007 mustang gt 500. all in one day . special invite only 15people in our group . 1 couple got kicked out for sneaking away during panos runs missed out on the ride of a lifetime. i got lots more pics but you seen the good ones allready.full speed all runs . my wife loved it . she even got to spinout at full speed on the infield coarse in the panos. she loved it.

um ya tons of g force , going into the curve at michigan speedway at 180 mph . lots of g force. with a slight pulsing slip through corners.

180mph going into the curve, Wow! Almost as fast as my Vette @Int DSS

Dude, that sounds awesome 1ej! 180 is haullin the mail for sure. How puckered were you at that speed? Lol. I did the Richard Petty school at Kansas Speedway back in '01 and all they let you do there is 140mph. It was cool as it was the first race car I ever drove, but I've been faster than that on the highway. (150mph). It did get me fired up to drive and 2 years later I had a modified in the garrage.

I spoke with a buddy at the local track's rules meeting last Saturday. I'm going to be on his pit crew next year since I'm not going back to officiating. He is starting up a chassis building operation and we will begin work on my new mod next spring! It'll take a good year to get it all together, but hopefully by spring of 2012 I can get back behind the wheel.
