we only have 2 incar vids.... the camera kep running its battery down for some reason... so we would have 6 total vids for you... but 4 times we only got about 3 sec of video before it shut off...

this is the Full corse at MILLER... this track was where the supra shined.... at the end of the lap... i noticed the water temp was high.. so i started short shifting and taking it easy... also turned the heater on WFO...

THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!

some people pop champaign bottles open... we pop tires..

what a fun event... we had a awsome time and met some great people...


.. we were alwasy up there.. everyone is so impressed with the supra... and wanting to know if we brining it back next year....

we did a 1.045 G on the skidpad.. it was good for 3rd place overall.. and put us in a 3rd place for the event overall.. by a big margin to 4th... and pretty dang close to 2nd....


then i did burnouts and popped the tires!!!!! it was awsome..



i will post more pics soon... we got some good ones...

back on he road! clutch is in and works perfectly!


First and for most thanks to Jamie Carter for letting us borrow his tilton triple for a couple of days. Also thanks to Don and Ryan at Accelerated Performance for helping out with the install and getting us back into this thing... and last but not least Nero and Bottle from Titan motorsports for getting me the help we needed when it matterd most!!! Thanks everyone!


We will finish this thing off tomorrow.... its been a LONG week and for the most part lucky as hell... first loosing a hub 300 miles from st luis and bill and steve helping out till 3am getting us back on the road. Then the hydralic release bearing getting fixed today just 80 miles from where it broke..


thanks for all the help along the way and of course all of the support!


leh did a great job driving the car today.. I really wanted to win at mid ohio and if the clutch didnt act up we could have done it with ease.... I got to say Leh and the GSC Supra at 60% is still one fast pair.... bringing the car in 3rd and making it threw the events today were better than winning.. now we can finish the event up and head back home for some much needed rest and back to work!

Greg

well the release bearing in the tilton triple is TOAST.... both noises from wheel and clutch bearings.. hurt the ears.. and even more.. hurt your feelings....

we are at Accelerated Performance in Toledo OH.... Greg called Nero from titan.. let him know what the deal was.. he called here.. and the guys are nice enough to let us use a lift.. and they happen to have the exact same clutch laying around.... so greg and some of the guys here are sticking it on right now....

i drove a extra 20 miles out of the way because of the pioneer head unit... the navi system is a JOKE..... the last 100 miles were done without the clutch.... running red lights.... and doing circles in gas station parkinglots waiting for redlights to turn green in the more traffic parts.... making alot of these fine ohio'ins not like the toyota supra.... and hangin out the window going threw tolls.. grabing the tickets and throwing money!!

also the guys in the Ford GT helped us out alot... we followed them because we were lost.. and they helped us out with the not being able to stop thing..


we will push this thing around the skidpad if we have too.. but hopefully we can rap up this 3rd place..!

the drag race didnt go to good..


the hennesy guy ninja installed a clutch in their car..... and ran a good time...

nursing the car we ran a bad time... we had massive wheel hop.. and at risk of breaking something.. we took it extremly easy.. and slow...

so we lost out 2nd place.. and back in 3rd...

this morning at midohio we finished 3rd.. behind Ron in his beast.. thats back.. and infront of davia...

our triple disk, mega awsome,, sooper light.. most expensive in the world.. tilton clutch.. is starting to fail...

it sliped on the interstate last nite just cruizing... the hotter it is.. the better grip it has... so we are crossing our fingers on it making it back to southbend.. and finish this podium up...

we had a nice drive yesterday.. only 240miles.... SHORT!!!!! we stopped at a japanese place.. and had a steak...


i got pulled over by a cop... he said i was swerving back and forth.. like i was drunk.. he said i looked tired.... i told him last time i slep was in oklahoma.. 2 days ago... he gave me a warning.... we were only 8 miles from the hotel.. so alllmost there...



we nursing the clutch rite now... we hoping to finish this thing in 3rd.... i will be very happy about that....





also when i get hispeed net.. maby tonite... i will post videos..

speeding.. 37 in a 25.. R U KIDDING ME!?... greg was mad




coverd licensplate... / wanted to see the supra... said "this thing would out run a charger police car!".... warning...

brian just blew a clutch in the hennesy viper...

we are no in 2nd place overall.....

wow.......

yesterday morning at hallet.. it was wet... 100mph 4th gear wheel spin with corded rear tires down the strate.... we kep it on track... and didnt lose many points....

2nd session we got 3rd... right where we need to be....


yesterday morning we started taking it extremly easy on the car.. the boost is turned all the way down.. and im keepign wheel spin to a minimum...


leaving the track we heard a squeeking noise coming from the back left..... yep.. a wheel bearing...

about a hour down the road.. the thing is SCREEMING and the hub feels like its gona fall off... we call marshal mogan and he calls Steve Vache and Bill Hansen..... we just so happen to be going thre st luis.. where these guys are from... Bill lets us come to his house.. and rip his hub off his car.. and greg, bill, and steve do a very late night.. very difficult.. rusty... hub swap.... i cannot say thanks enough to bill and steve... these guys are awsome...




i slep in the driveway a little.. and watched... then we had a problem with the axle.. the threads had been mushroomed... so i hacksawd threadpattern into the first 2mm of the axle.. and it worked... somehow...


me and greg rotated drives to indy... it was a very difficult drive.. we were extremly tired...


other then my hour on the concrete driveway at bills house... and gregs 45min in the supra while on the way to indy... we have had no sleep....



we BARLY make it to indy.... we drove strate to grid.. and was a little late... didnt even have time to walk to track or look at the track map.... only thing i ever seen about this track was a vid 3 weeks ago!!.. haha.. on my warm up lap.. i was told i went off track in the "parkinglot" session and totoaly missed turn 6... i told the guy... "i didnt go to sleep last night... and have no idea if the first turn is a left or a rite.... but i wil try my best".. he was like... "uhhhh... ok.. b safe!"


we were 6th i think. this morning.. on 17psi... no sliding at all.... just making the car last......

just got to the hotel.... after a downpoor nightime drive....

the day went good.. we got 3rd in the morning session.. and 4th in the afternoon session.. even tho i took the supra rallying on part of the track on my last lap..


looks as tho we are pretty much locked into 3rd overall.. big gap from 4th.. and a decent sized one to 2nd... the way the points system works... noone can really change their position unless they DNF...... so we are gona take it easy on the car a lil bit more.. and try to bring a podium home...

greg got pulled over twice.. but i will post more about that tommarow...





the last corner.. transition onto drag strip.. with metal plates covering the holes where the TREE would be.. is pretty interesting...





i never knew these windmill things were so big... there was one just a couple hundred feet from the road... they are serisouly freekin huge...





Leh

this morning a peublo we were top 3... not sure wich exactly.. probably 3rd.. the track surface isnt very good.... we also found a defect with out right back tire.. we should be getting it replaces.. it doesnt slow us down.. just some unnormal thread placement in the tire....

anyways... the big news is the topspeed...... yesterday in the morning session at miller they blew their motor... blew the skirt off the piston....

when we left miller.. they had a new shotblock sitting by their car.... they did a full engine swap in the middle of the night and just pulled up at lunch time here at pueblo...

absolutly amazing!!!..

they plan to run it in this afternoon session... i cant even beleive it really... anyone else.. and they would have just quit....


Good job doug and luke!!!!!!




they decided not to run.. they gona drive it back to southbend.. and go home early..... playing it safe... i think its a good move..

finaly got to stretch the legs in the soopdawg.... and it did good... we got 2nd in both rounds.... the viper again won... and we beat the porsche pretty easily...


the 2nd round was the long corse... the car got a lil warm so i chilled out on the last lap... short shifted a little and took it easy on the motor.. the temps came down a lil and i finished the lap just fine.... word has it.. i was still within a sec of the viper....

i have incar of my fastest lap.. a 3:13... i will post it up tonight....


we in MOAB rite now.... possibly running a hi rate of speed.... codriver caloudas behind the wheel...



miller....





on the way to ppppeeeeewwwUUUU..blows...

the 1000 mile trip last night went well.. with no mis haps... it was actualy a very nice drive... im glad we only did one run group at mid america so we could see everything with the day light..... we pulled into salt lake about midnight... popped right through the mountians... and down them.. at a prety hi rate of speed... : )

first we had to get through the plains.. wich was pretty boring..




sticking candy on the windsheild at 90mph...




150miles down the road.... in freezing temps.. the candy stays on...




the sno begins... not just on the ground.. in the air also...
this lil guy didnt last long on the hood...
