Nice, looks like you're having wayyyy too much fun with that car easty!

Looks great easty. Makes me feel bad since I've been lagging on putting my video together. At least one of us isn't lazy.

Love it! Can't wait to go back out to Cresson in May. I may try to hit TWS in June. How did you like it?

**alroumi** · 04-26-2007

Thank you for sharing, very impressed with the cars capabilities

Tws is a different track than cresson. Much higher speed and has many repeating smooth long corners. I love TWS, but Cresson is much more technical in my opinion.

The straight at TWS is also unique, I think corner one and two and the biggest challange of guts.

may not look like it on the video but you turn into 1 at 140+ and then have a short break and throw it into 2 getting to the edge and roll in about 80. I love that bit of track, good luck and take it easy.

If you see a grey elise and a silver old 318I parked up at cresson or TWS go and say hi from me.

**F111F** · 04-26-2007

I will look for them and say hi! Enjoy your travels.

Yeah Seattle, Not sure about those guys though. I did ask, but they are very slooowww at hiring. Last time I applied for a job with them I was working in germany for 3 months before they got back to me. I don't have the budget to wait around for them after this trip so I've applied for work all over the place including the east coast so see what comes up trumps.

Brian --- if it doesn't work out up there come by for a couple of days when you head back --- better yet get something in this area (CA)
Enjoyed the track video's

My uncle works for boeing, he said they are a different company then they used to be, (which company isn't?), they do more firing then hiring these days.

My friend i'm visiting at the moment waited 4months between applying and being offered a position. he was in a job he didn't like so not too bad. I worked for some good guys in TX and didn't want to walk away until it was complete so didn't do the same thing. I'll look elsewhere at the moment as i cannot wait the time if they are playing that game.

the way it all works guys tend to start looking for a different postion if they get a hint the current one may end, simply because it could take so long. then they often leave the current job premature. i don't like it, but it seems it's even expected by the employers now.

Yeah, boeing tends to make people wait, don't wait around, if you can find, try finding a job elsewhere, we have 50 states.

My employer is doing everything wrong, laying off technical people that actually works and hiring more manager's that isn't. (no offense to some managers here). We have 7 managers to one 1 technician. My father has always been a self-entrepreneur and don't believe working hard for someone else. I might take that route but not sure what I want to open yet. But right now, I'm working half the week and get paid extremely well, opening your own business requires alot of hardwork and countless hours, not ready for that just yet.
