Review of 2010

It has been a year since my wife gave birth to a strong and intelligent son "Alonso Marcus" - in which by the way he's actually my replica.. take a look




Autocross and Slalom for Kookie Ramirez:
Back then Kookie was trying to fight his cancer and was trying to help Kookie raise some money for the therapy.






and my rusting driving ability showing off... hahaha...



it was just a minor scratch, no effect on the underbody. (lucky!).. and now the timed lap! (tada!!!)



Decommissioning
1. SIR dubbed as "The Last Lap"
Attendance are as usual



Could'nt find any videos from this escapade.. sorry!...
but in a nut shell, there was
night slalom - most of the track were pitch black, and it ended 2 am. :)
wheel to wheel race with your buddies on wet track! I've spun Tammy more than twice! hehehe...
RWYB - Nothing unusual happened. Its race as usual.

2. Tammy

Yep... It's time... I felt its the right time to decommission Tammy from racing. She has been unreliable on track, but on daily drives she doesn't even have any issues. No blown engine yet as we speak... hehehe.. but she will stay within my arms reach... Tammy has a new master (Jimbo, my brother)... see you around Tammy! Thanks for all the good times! I still love you even if i think about the bad situations you've given me.. :))


Tipidracing has a new face - Roxy


Thats it for now... next blog will be about Roxy's steps on how to become race ready.
Meet Roxy before the change:

New Beginning

I bought a 1993 Mitsubishi Lancer GLXi. It took me 3 months to find this car. I wasnt really strict about picking a second hand car. :P These are just a few of the criteria i used:

1. No Major crashes - you need to have an experienced eye to know this. If you are not.. they'd just toy you around
2. Paint is clean - meaning OEM paint or dealer has the one who painted it at the least
3. All lights working - it means wiring has not been tapped. check wiring which is hidden also
4. No leaks - power steering, engine, A/C, tranny.
5. Car should be bone stock - i want to start from zero

I bought it last 2006
This is the new beginning of Tammy which was once a coding car...
cheers!



(Actually, I cant find a pic which Tammy still has the stock headlight, stock corner and cheek light) the pic i posted already has some few mods on it...
