Indeed, Jonnie Fraz on here owns stealth-custom-fab.com he was nice enough to pay for Andrew's and my entry fee at Thunderhill this past weekend... CJ who is a partner at Loud Liquid Graphix did all my stickers for free for repping their name.

I didn't come out friday night obviously, because I was catching up with a bunch of friends since I got out. I may tonight, not for sure though. Only cause there's a few Halloween parties and Kyle's 18th bday too. Plus my ref ticket and my GF broke with me so I gotta see what's up with that too

Well I had my first major crash the other night. I was trying to go faster than I usually go and just got into the turn too fast. So the end result was me going backwards into a square curb. It looked a lot worse than it really was, but all in all it wasnt that bad. I took out the passenger rear lower control arm, upright a.k.a. knuckle, brake line and wheel. On the upside I went to Pick n Pull and got an LCA with the knuckle for $26 so all I need now is to get a new brake line and install my poly bushings into the new LCA/knuckle. I should be back up on the road by thursday. Ehh that's drifting, it's going to happen eventually the only question is how bad will it be.

Wheel and tire damage.




Brake line damage.


Here is where the knuckle broke, right above the ball joint.


The rest of the knuckle still attached to the ball joint on the LCA.


Bent LCA mount.

The tire 'looked' ok. We won't know until it's mounted and has pressure again. If the sidewall bubble's we know it's bad - otherwise it'll be fine. It's not like the tire is going to have to last us a couple years of driving, just a couple weeks (or less) to kill the tread.

I'm sorry to hear about that. But that is true, it happens to everyone. It's just a matter of how bad. Who is LGND2NV?? Have I ever met him??

No prob..Anytime Good times id have to say!

It was good to be out there again, it reminded of just how much I missed hanging out with all you guys and cars. I should have it out by next weekend though. What's with this Loud Liquid guy??

[mestizo]

Well I didnt get a chance to get my car finished in time to drift it this weekend but it should be done this week. I ordered up some more parts as well. I got a set of SPL V2 toe rods, steering angle spacers and SPL V4 pro outer tie rod ends. So when the toe arms get here I'll slap those on and finally be able to adjust my toe on the rear of my car to where I want it. Man I am feenin for some drift. I am not sure but I may try to go to Thunderhill this weekend and slide but I am not sure yet I'll have to see how my bills go and then decide. If I don't go to Thunderhill I might try to go to Buttonwillow with Andrew... who knows at this point money and time are the deciding factors right now.

[Jonnie Fraz]

I am willing to help out again this month with entry fees.

Drew was saying this weekend is the skidpad again and then next weekend is open track at Thunderhills
