I heard robbie unser, vasholtz, dallenbach, etc (the big names from Pikes Peak) were talking about going to this to settle who really was fastest since they didn't get to compete on Pikes Peak?

Is this true?

 

[mike270]

Their website seems to be down. I can't get into it anyway.

 

[cnstman]

i heard unser lost his ride in the suby cause of his bone head post race antics, so i don't think he will be there, not in the killer sti anyway.

 

[mike270]

oh well.

Doesn't surprise me I guess. He did go overboard after the race for sure. Not what sponsors/owners want to see.

 

[mike270]

Anyone know anything about more about the Hartsel rally? I am down in that area all the time.

Is there another rally besides the hill climb then? I only knew about the hill climb. The only thing is that there are very few mountains there. They are real small at that.

Sorry to hijack your thread.

Yeah only becouse they are being a pain to work with I sent them a e-mail over 1 month ago.

And i guess the people may be too busy to tech my car at the event.

So i hope i get to run.

I'm sure they could do something- have you talked with Pete or somebody? He knows how to do stuff.

That reminds me, I don't know if I paid a membership this year or not...

I was with Paul Dallenbach and David Donner two weeks ago. They are coming. It's a grudge match between the two since they couldn't race all the way to the top of Pikes Peak. They want to settle it here.

Jeff Zwart has to film another car commercial in Japan so he and Rod Millen are out because Rod was going to drive Jeff's Porsche Rally Car.

Unser is a no. Vahsholtz should be there. Lots of local Suby and Mitsi drivers should be there.

Go Eric and Blah and all the other underfunded good guy teams!

Looks like there will be quite a few big names though. Should make for a good weekend. Lots of locals and a few big names.

I agree. What made him say that btw?

 

[Nick Cave]

I agree. What made him say that btw?

He had just driven a 450 HP AWD Porsche Cayenne up Pikes Peak. I was doing a shoot for Porsche and they gave me one too, just for the week. Not bad for an SUV. I think I'll ask for one at the next RallyCross so I can beat Ozy! Think he'll notice?

 

[mike270]

That sure is a nice job perk. Did you time him up the hill? You should rally it for sure. He wouldn't notice it if he couldn't see it as it went by him!!

 

[Nick Cave]

That sure is a nice job perk.

Yea, my job sucks sometimes! I have worked for Hyundai and Dodge too so it all evens out.


[/B][/QUOTE]Did you time him up the hill? [/B][/QUOTE]

It was supposed to be a photo shoot. Porsche was grabbing everyones watches. Unofficial hidden watch was high twelves in pure stock set up. Bobby was talking to Porsche about pulling out back seats, spare tire and putting in a roll cage and he would come out of retirement.:wiggles:

 

[mike270]

High 12's!!!!!!! That is a really good time for a completely stock car.

I assume the road was closed for the shoot then right?

Get any good shots you can share with us?
