no whats sad is the fact that all these people drove however many miles, paid however much mone for tickets, gas, and lodging, and this is the show they get.

Just too inform what happened, the map sensor crapped out and datalog showed it stuck at 30psi. Car cut off as soon as I launched it. This was the 1st time the tC has been running since 2009 season and It was no suprise something was off key.

The plugs fouled and Ken gushi and his crew being the nice people they are gave us a set to get the car back to the pits. All we packed for this event was quick detailer and rags, lol.
This exhibition pass was set up by Scion for the event.
Keep an eye on the forum though because we will be posting up an actual pass soon.

This was a spare of the moment thing, not some kind of scheduled show down. But if you showed up, you would know that.

You would also know that they were going to race again later, but there was a drag event being held the same day, so that was the last race of the day and no one was allowed to race anymore.

13.3 @ 127. Remember, Gushi's tC is a drift car. It's setup to go sidewayz. Didn't catch traction till halfway down the track.

Gushi raced a Motorcycle after that. Ran a 13.0 @ 129-130, the bike ran a 10.xx @ 139mph
