What's Goin' On!?!

A lot of things have happen within the last several months. It's all a learning experience and I have to believe that there's a positive to what's been happening. I've been really busy with work which can be both good and bad all at the same time. I'm glad that I have a job and friends that have looked out for me during my down time. The bad is that I was being over worked and it was getting stressful because TV shows have short turnarounds and you try to get the work to 100%, but at the end of it all you can only do so much and settle for 80%. A friend once told me, "Chrispy, the deal with TV is 80%, that's all you need." Anyways, the projects are now completed and pilot season is coming up and the deadlines are even more crazy. I'm looking forward to taking a vacation.

This week actually March 16th, some friends of mine are coming to Japan. I'm really excited to see them but I'll be in San Francisco celebrating St. Patty's Day with a few friends of mine(Jeff, Trish, Jay, and Ken). When I get back into town, I'll try my best to see them.

So last weekend was fun. I went back to Buttonwillow raceway and I had a blast. It's been 2 years since I been on that track. back then I never knew the lap times I was putting down. My ex girlfriend swears she's faster than me though hahahaha. We'll have to see about that next time around. The configuration that we ran was course 13 CW. The first session out I ran 2:14, 2nd session I ran 2:09, 3rd session 2:08.3, and 4th was 2:08.9. I'm not going to lie, I had 2 run offs, everything is ok. I took home a 3rd place trophy for fastest lap time courtesy of Ben from GT-RR/Bulletproof.

Setting up

It's about to get serious! hahahaha

Cooling down form a hot session

Third Place: 3rd fastest GT-R lap time @ 2:08.3


My next track day will be at Laguna Seca April 6-7th for a very special 2 day event hosted by Nissan. I was fortunate enough to get invited to this event. It's been 2 years since I last been there too hahaha. I plan on making a small documentary about the whole experience so I can share with other Gt-R owners. Anyways, I'll get back with you all later this week. ONE!
