S2k #5 - Saturday, 11/11/06, Mineral Wells

[Miatamoto]

I want it for Christmas!

I figure we can tie break by using the best excuse for why we missed event #4. I was moving, I think you were being a and said you were "sick" We can set up a poll for people to decide .

ROFLMAO!!! I was about to walk out the door when my wife made me check my temp. I wasn't going out there with a 101 fever. BTW, you couldn't go b/c the woman was crackin the whip on you right?

Titus, you're missing something there. Wooten only beat us b/c he put on his Hoosiers in the afternoon, his results were supposed to be thrown out.

Here's some video:

This was the third run, my camera broke before I got to my fast one.

To the S2K folks:
Great job all season and I look forward to more of the same next year

BTW, does trying to use my tires until they reach the cords help my chances for induction to TCB?

Uh - no. What put you in top the TCB level was mooching a free ride in the AM and free tires & wheels in the PM

I think we should have packed up when the ambulance showed up. None of the bad stuff would have happened in fun runs and Sammm wouldn't have been blocking the ramp onto 35.

The actual event was super. First time in a long time I actually enjoyed being on course! I don't care what you say, POS has some value.

Who knew ES100's could be better in the dry than my Kooks??? And before you throw the ask POS. There's still tread showing on the Kooks, but they were toast at mid-season If you still don't believe it, I will gladly give you the Kooks and let you drift a bit - in your car.

Looks like there were deaths in the plane crash.

I've read a few different brief articles on the crash and all said that the plane crashed while attempting to land. I recall that those that saw it described the crash as being just after take off??? TC... you saw it... Was it landing or taking off?

[Majik]

Well everyone was landing to the north east since the wind was out of the north. Everyone who saw it pointed to the southwest.

I think Ego Threat and I are both of the opinion that it was attempting a landing. Something went terribly horribly wrong, though, as we both also thought "some jackass flying an RC Plane near an airport" until the ambulance showed up. The plane completed a couple of rather irregular maneuvers before an abrupt nose down/loss of altitude. I assumed low altitude aerobatics, plane went below horizon, started another car, and didn't think much of not seeing the plane again.

Nah I was cracking the whip. It was a PIA to tie the washer to her back, but she got it up the stairs eventually.








Please dont let her read this, or tell her I said this.

As I said Saturday, can I get her phone number? I'd hate to have to drive all the way over to where she works

It was a very eventful day for sure. Lots of weird/strange things happenend, including during my ride home.

Can we blame Titus??

F' you POS.

Can we blame Titus??

Always the easiest approach.

There was some confusion during the first event because Wooten used R-comps in the afternoon when he ran faster than Marc and I. I thought his results were supposed to be thrown out.

I'm pretty sure that puts us in a tie.

BTW, Congrats to Apex2apex for the trophy in "other" for the season.

You're right, it looks like Wooten's results are still showing up in the event results. I don't see any way to brake the tie either. Wanna arm wrestle for it?
