the looooong day.........

well today so far has been pretty wild....


if you saw on the news.. the huge tornado that took out that town... we drove into that storm last night about 30 miles from mid america...

it was still raining when we woke up this morning.. i usualy like the rain.. but in this car.. on street tires... on a track i never drove before.... it got pretty interesting...

they wernt real sure what to do with the event... when we got there it was still raining... and no BS... a Tornado warning sirein was going off for the city of omaha..... the track had some puddles and small ponds on some of the strates... so they made the event just a single trial instead of 2..it finaly stopped raining.... and the track ran some pikup trucks threw the water puddles... then let us out...


we finished 3rd at autobahn so thats where we qualified.. and started.. in the first run group... on a soaking wet track... the supra didnt like it.. but i had fun... topspeed and davia were a pretty good bit faster.... and the viper.. killed us all.. again...


the next run group had a drying track and did about the same times as us...

then the track kep getting dryer and dryer.....


a honda oddesy MINIVAN.. won overall!!!.. haha.... it started 53rd.. on a totaly dry track i assume...


the navi system said 943 miles to go... to salt lake city.. its gona be a looong night..

    Daamn! I was wondering why the Odyssey took the win.

    You better hope that doesn't rain anymore or that Honda Van is gonna whoop ya!! If that happened...well...you'd be in exile from Chucktown foreva. I bet those kats in the Van are living it up right now...lounging in the 3rd row seating .. probably got a cooler of beer, big screen and PS3 going on between stages. Y'all chose the wrong vehicle, Suckas!

    Anyway...kill who ever is doing the rain dancing and you should be alright the rest of the schedule.

    I guess I know why the Odyssey made it into Gran Turismo 4 now.
