HUGE NEWS HUGE NEWS!!!

Guys, next week I WAS INVITED AND I AM GOING TO LA FOR THE LONG BEACH GRAND PRIX, American Le Mans Series!!! I will be working as crew (mostly doing data aquisition) for the LG Motorsports #28 car in GT2 of Lou Gigliotti. Please watch the race! 12:30 eastern on ABC network sunday the 19th. Please root for the team and wish me luck!!! I/WE need it! I am really excited and also nervous!! But racing has a way of being this wave that just owns you so hard you dont get time to think how you feel about it, so that will help. I just have to manage to sleep between now and then. haha

Congratulatios, big time.
I have a question for you, is the DSM going to get a paint job?
Just wondering.

Oh by the way, I NEED those clamps how about a price? Pm'ed or posted here, are they more economic than wiggings?

[gixxerdrew]

I'm still testing the clamps, let me get back to you on them. I'm not sure on the quality yet but they are knockoff wiggins clamps from ebay with questionable quality. If they dont work I'll have to buy the real ones but I decided to take a gamble on them after ordering one and checking it out.

The DSM is in the paint shop now!

dont worry, the car is getting painted in Pink. we're painting it pink so that it'll be easy to spot and magazine people loves it!


aite, peace.

Pink camouflage, for that grittier look, with a big "Hello Kitty" stitched into the soft top?

 

[gixxerdrew]

Hello Kitty!!!!! YES! That would be perfect!

 

[reno23]

Hello Kitty!!!!! YES! That would be perfect!

WTF "hello kitty" ?...hmmm, how cute. Drew, get some sleep, please.
pray: gunmetal finish on the paint job)

We have a car on that list where it's not necessarily a "driver", it's a team. I see no reason we can't add your team to the list. Read up on the perks there on the page.

Yup there were many DSM haters saying that these cars couldnt handle. Yah we have a few things from the factory that are total crap and have to be sorted out but I believe the potential is there!

The potential is TOTALLY there . . . my GST build is nowhere near the level you guys are at and I took 3rd place last season at the Redline Time Attack at Summit Point in FWD. Great Job!

 

[dsm-freak]

love the build man, hopefully this will show some people that our cars are still performers.

Hey I been meaning to track you down! I saw that from last years results and was wondering what kind of a setup you were running? I wonder what the east coast region competition will be like? Man last year would have been so different here on the west coast the lap times were 2:06x winning time for street FWD this year 2:00.3 less than 2 secs off the RWD times. Are you planning to run more events on your region? Great to see you out there man! We gotta keep on letting people know whats up with the diamond stars

[gixxerdrew]

Haha everyone's giving me crap because I have this intense hatred of pink. I think its the most horrid color.

 

[bluegs03]

CONGRATS on getting the le mans crew job! that is a hell of a honor!

 

[gixxerdrew]

Well guys, my little hiatus is over, time to get back on the grind. Tonight I finish my taxes, tomorrow I go off to ALMS for Long Beach then camping out in socal until the end of next month and working on my car. I got to spend some time with my friends and family during these 3 weeks. I'm going to miss everyone again.

 

[olmytsi]

[gixxerdrew]

[gixxerdrew]
