Forged Performance @ Road Atlanta 4/16-4/17
 

I'd like to take you up on this offer. I'm going to try my best to get there. My dad would love that also.

I'm running there too this weekend

I'll defiantly be there now. I'll be looking for you Mike.

It was good speaking with you Spohn. Look forward to seeing you up there this weekend!

Great...please feel free to paddock with us. We are usually up front near the bleachers and the Discovery parts trailer. It's also close to the restroom which is an added bonus! :bowrofl:

Great!

Hey Sharif, save me a seat in the GTR? :tup: I want to feel the power of that beast.

Also I know you'll have plenty of help. But if you need an extra hand I'll be more than glad to help in any way I can?

which is "funner" to drive at the track , the GTR or the GT3?

I'd really like to take the time to give a big thanks to Forged Perfromance today for there great hospitality at Road Atlanta. They invited anyone to come and hang out and even go for a ride in there GTR. I have to tell you, that GTR is a bad a$$ ride. I could not believe how quickly it accelerated along with the braking on that baby. Man, Sharif can drive like no one I've ever been with. He has some super mad skills. It was truely an amazing experience for myself and my dad. Again, the braking on that car is out of this world. He came down from 160 to what I believe was around 50 in a couple of seconds. I wonder at times when he was going to brake. It was crazy isane.

Anyways here some quick pics I took.

Then unfortunately a finder bender. The mustang hit the BMW after a brake issue, so it was told. But no one was hurt.

you left too early! I went to the bathroom and you were gone and I was gonna see if you wanted to ride with me, even though it would be nothing like riding with Sharif!

Coming back tomorrow?

Yea, we kind of just shot out. I had to get to my meds. I started feeling bad quickly and I didn't bring them with me. I usually can hold out till the evening, but not this time. Sorry for not saying bye. I would of loved to of rode with you though. It would of gave me a more realistic view of what I have :icon17:. I won't be back tomorrow as much as I wish I could. Enjoy your self though.

Mike: Were you at Road Atlanta last month for a BMW club track event during the rain soaked weekend? I came down with a friend from Nashville and was hoping to see some Nissan's run at the track. I only saw two all weekend and one was a black 370....looked similar to your signature. I kept looking for the owner, but all I could find was the car sitting in the paddock with no one around.

that was me, probably hiding in a dry place!

Cool! I'll keep an eye out for you next time I am down. I will bring my Z to RA later this summer after I get an oil cooler put on it.
