OK, we should be there for the 11am one. Where at Baron exactly? The parking area by the Mini's I assume....

I can't afford $13.00 for a movie no matter how good it is. For that kind of money I can take most of my family to the movies. I'll wait for it on HBO if I have to I have a 52" widescreen HDTV.

so what is the detail scedule plan for the 11 am run and the 7 pm run?

Apparently, Batman tickets at IMAX is sold out this weekend so I am not going to see it until next week.

FYI Bernard, the IMAX ticket is $8 during weekdays and weekend before 4 pm but on weekend after 4 pm is $13.

ok thanks for the FYI, also we need to get more people on facebook to race, I am getting tired of racing you. I need more money for my upgrades, I 'll PM you and we should figure out something.

I hope we can still make it. Pretty sure I'm coming down sick though. Could just be lack of sleep + too much time in a theater, we will see tomorrow.

FYI: I saw Dark Knight twice tonight (one iMax, one regular), its well worth your money.

Anyone doing the 7pm run? If I don't see any posts before 6:30, its canceled.

A little early, but 7pm canceled, we had a good run besides a slight accident with aris....I'll let him explain what happend.

aris_poerwanto · Post by **aris_poerwanto** » Sun Jul 20, 2008 2:21 pm

yup an accident.

Picture this, I was powersliding on a 20 mph corner cause i lost traction due to gravel and my back tires being a bit worn out. I hit a big turning sign

My front passenger side was scrap off, i need a new hood, front bumper and head lights.

How much do you think that will cost? I am thinking about $3k
but thank God I have insurance.

I will try to post some pictures

K5 is fun until it turns into to 5K. Glad nobody got hurt.

What I can't figure is why the airbag didn't go off.

sorry to hear about your car. thank god for that little piece of paper in our glovebox we are required to have, but never think we will use.

no airbag huh? do the new mini's have a "airbag off" deal that you put your key in and turn to manual shut it off, or did yours just not deploy? good thing you didn't need it.

Probably wasn't going fast enough to cause the sensors to think they needed to deploy..

well i didnt hit it head on. i think i was going like 30 mph when i hit the pole. I wish that pole wasnt there. should have done more run at the track in that way if i make mistake i wont hit anything on the side and plus the road is clean.
