NSXPO 2007 Photo blog

I just wanted to stop in and say that I had a great time in Columbus. Thanks to everyone that helped make the event happen.

I can't wait to see more of the pictures from TRC and Mid-Ohio. So far so good!

P.S.- I was the young guy in my friends Black '94 that drove in the afternoon session on Sunday. Some of you may remember my spin on the road course...

is NSXPO going to be in Canada in '09??
wheres it gonna be in '08?

off topic: where did you get those neat seat side bolsters and headrest pillows?? that was your car them, correct?

No, those were mine. The neck pillows came from nekbonz.com and the side bolsters were from our own Motegi, I think he can be convinced to start another run if there's enough interest!!!

LOL! Who could forget!!!

I personally spun on the skid pad... but only under the strict orders of the instructor! "Faster. More throttle. Faster..."

I am the one who made the bolster protectors. There seemed to be plenty of interest at NSXPO so I'll try to arrange another production!

My spin was coming out of the long left hander onto the longest straight. He kept telling me to roll onto the throttle harder and sooner.. and did I ever. When it started to oversteer, I stayed in it for a little bit to try and ride it out, but apparently I didn't stay in it long enough and I lifted too suddenly. That was my first time ever driving the car in any track setting and I learned quite a bit.

I'm still curious as to what it looked like from outside the car. :biggrin:

This is a nice EC pic Baily.

Whats EC ? You dont even want to know how many people asked what that was about.

There was this comment about Rogers car

Whose yellow 02+ NSX has a prancing horse on the bumper?!?! For shame!

Everything that I shot at nsxpo is here ... I wanted to go around and shoot all the wheels but it was too damm hot and had to retreat to my room. Enjoy the album and I will add pics to it that my friends shot while there also when I get there memory cards. Thank you everyone who made this such a great event !

The only think that would have made this trip more awesome would have been to be able to do a parade lap of the 7.5 mile test track with 60 degree banks. One of the honda instructors there said that at 140 MPH you could let go of the steering wheel and you would just go around the bank without touching it.

R-compound dessert anyone?

I dont think anyone took a second bite of that thing. :biggrin:

 

[BioBanker]

I did. I took about 5 bites in fact. Then I realized it was ruining the beer!

R-compound dessert anyone?

I think it was "apple get the f#@k out'a here"

Traditionally served at the end of a meal you want people to quickly leave!:biggrin: :wink:

2 Imola's. One factory and a na1 car with a black roof:wink: Don't worry, we took care of Grant at the Winking Lizard bar and Azule. He had plenty of Heinekens and we made him say, "Good day mate" and "lets put another shrimp on the barbie" about 100 times. I even tried to set him up with a rather, large woman. :biggrin:

You must be talking about that fake orange car.
And as I remember Michael, Grant wasn't the only one you tried to set up with a fat girl. :wink:

The "official" blog has been completed now that the event is over but it will take me several days to finish uploading all the photos to the linked galleries. I took over 4000 shots at TRC and Mid-Ohio and have photos of everyone at both venues except the Advanced drivers at Mid-Ohio since I was on the track with them. I will post when I have at least one shot of everyone uploaded but until then you can check that link periodically as more photos will be uploaded as they get processed.

Awesome stuff, Robert. Thanks for allowing those who couldn't attend to be there by proxy. :thumbup:
