Junkman2008 Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Well folks, it's just as the title says. Corvettes Against Breast Cancer opened the event up this year to the Porsche and 5th generation Camaro owners. PLENTY of Camaros showed up too! You all were well represented! Since I was doing a detailing clinic at the track, I got to do all my runs back to back. Thus, I ended up on the track with the Vettes, the Camaros and I also did a run with a group of cars that consisted of a Challenger, Chargers and a Porsche (no offense, but that group was slow as hell!). Anyway as you will see in the videos, most of the Camaro guys were new at this and the turns were scaring the crap out of them. I experienced the same thing my first time around 3 years ago so that by no means is a slam. That is a very real sensation when you do this for the first time so I was at an advantage.. Now that I have about 80 laps around that monster under my belt, I am a lot more comfortable with rolling that puppy! So here is the video of my run around the track with the Camaros. This was by far the most fun ride I had that day. The run that I did at night with the lights on was by far my scariest! That run had all the maniacs on the track and there was a Camaro out there that was as wild as I was! Oh by the way, the hottie you hear in the background with me stopped me just before I hit pit row and asked if she could roll with the Junkman. Needless to say, I couldn't say no to her fine self so I had company on this trip, and a few others! If you missed out on this and live in the area, you are CRAZY! <object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BoFM2iWUo5w?fs=1&hl=en_US&color1=0x5d1719&color2=0xcd311b"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BoFM2iWUo5w?fs=1&hl=en_US&color1=0x5d1719&color2=0xcd311b" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Very nice AJ. Looked like a blast, and with two people in the car also. I wish the 1/4 mile track would allow two prople in the car. Some day you and I will meet. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mc2hill Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Nice job playa. That's really looks like fun. I could see how you may be a little apprehensive driving a new car there, but man, stay off the brakes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

08G8V8 Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Looks like the Camaro drivers might just need a little training from a NASCAR expert: <object height="385" width="480"> <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7O37IObEyMM?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="385" width="480"></object> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, that was the reflection of my GPS that was set up to monitor speed. You have to sit in the driver's seat to see the HUD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

70'sChevyGirl Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 AJ, you are quite the narrator. You sounded like you were having a blast. :rockon: It felt like I was almost in your car with you. :D I am more of a dragstrip girl and not much into the roundy rounds. It sorta makes me dizzy. Whats a dog leg?? Don't make me start guessing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope to hang out again real soon. You know it Steve! You saw her! Let me fix your position here. You are definitely not a "new AF detailer"! AJ' date=' you are quite the narrator.

Whats a dog leg?? Don't make me start guessing. [/quote'] I'll show you my dog leg if you show me your roundy rounds! By the way, the big "O" makes me dizzy too! The dog leg is what I call that little bend that runs into pit row. It sorta whips your neck if you don't hit it right. I hardly ever hit it right in all my videos! And there goes the "family friendly atmosphere" Teresa has a way of doing that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveB Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 That was funny. Junkman why didn't you let us know you were going to be in Atlanta? I would have come out to see the clinic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't know if I was going or not. Some drunk biker hit my car and I didn't know if I was going to have it fixed in time or drive it scratched up. I ended up driving it scratched up which really hurt to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
