Farmer Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Yeah, it wasn't funny when it happened. I remember the sound, and opening my eye and realizing I could still see, but everything was red. Then Mike Vigg took me down to the urgent care. Not very fun. As far as autocross, here's what to expect. It's funny how much different the 510 handles now, granted that was on absolute shit tires. It may take a second to finish processing on youtube. Just goes to show you, you don't need power to do well at autocross! Yello620 beat me in that event due to his superior driving and probably better tires too. You flew around that track. Pretty cool too. How did Jason beat you? Does any one have Jasons run on Video? Larry Quote Link to comment
Skib Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 look for his yellow 620 in the vids above, I think hes in there Quote Link to comment
motavated Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 GOD DAMN! I dont think I will go guys... Here is the math... Its 1000 miles one way right? SO round trip is 2000 miles. My truck guesstimated gets 20mpg and it has a 10 gallon tank. so it would get 200 miles per tank. So I would need 10 refills to head there and back. gas costs 3 dollars a gallon? so per tank its 30$ X 10 tanks its 300$ of gas.... WOW! Plus 65$ of reg and food and stuff... So 365$ total. Does this add up????!!!! So then How long will take for me to get there? At 65 miles an hour it would take around 15 hours. SO I would need a place to rest. A hotel? Or in back of my truck? If I decide motel its 50$ a night and I would need it for two nights. So its up to 465. So then I also need food? Well I can buy bread and ham and shit and it would probably total 500$..... Uhhhhhh....... I don't got that kind of money... I was expecting 200$ maX!!!!! Did I do my math wrong... Fuck!!!!!! The guy from so cal... How much did you pay to go last year? Quote Link to comment

hang_510 Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 You talking to me ... BUT THE COST! yeah were talking to you! :huh: the cost of not going is greater. dont forget to factor in the shiny bits laying around that you gotta have! and beer... the 4runner gets 20MPG, so your math isnt too far off. the 510 is only slightly better. i drove ~85, so my elapsed time was less. Z rac3r only beat me because she drove faster :angry: slept ~5hrs at some rest stop, ~redding??? then more caffeine :hyper: showers are avail at the campground. this is exactly what credit cards are for.

My 1995 4runner gets 10-12 mph... That why I decided to buy a Datsun pre smog. So I could fuck around and get decent mpg. MY CRED IS MAXED OUT!!!! I bought 20 dollars of scratchers and nope! nothing. Faith said no... But I have good luck at the yards... I went to find all that rare "shiny" things for my truck and guess what I found!!!! KACHING!!!! Man... Why do I got such luck at the yards but I aint so good at the money department... Here... Sorry I aint going after all...

Saying to complete strangers "This never happened, right?" Waking up with the Mount Rushmore of headaches. You, two friends and Lynch using an L intake as a bong! As runner up, accepting first prize in the unsanctioned projectile vomiting contest because the winner was a no show. Helping saw a piece of exhaust pipe off of Kiznook. Quote Link to comment
