So here is it.. The ChipIn.. Donations accepted because we don’t have the money currently to make this happen.. The FRN 240sx’s purpose to to help girls who don’t have cars to participate in track days.. This coming weekend is “Drive Like a Woman” an all girl track day at Atlanta Motor Speedway. Where myself and Lieze Truter were to pilot the Corolla for the day in order for Lieze to have her first ’bout with a drift car.. Now with two broken cars we are placed in a hard spot. We have the pieces  just need to put them all together. Suspension for it is in KY and would just take some driving to go pick up and have installed (and pay for it).. I have a friend giving me some wheels that I would need to pick up that I would pass through while picking up said suspension.. and I have a diff that’s at Chad’s house in ATL just waiting to be installed..  So if you’d like to help two ladies out please feel free to donate in the chip in above.. or if you’d like to have your company name HUGE on the side of the car and you take care of it all we can arrange that… All money will be put towards the car and the trip down.. any help is hugely appreciated.. Thanks!!

If you follow me on Twitter, (which you should if you aren’t go here) then you probably know of the crazy month that Chris and I have ahead of ourselves. We are busy until the very last weekend in this month.. Let me tell you why..

This weekend we are driving at Elite Summer Nationals in Spartanburg, SC.. This is a yearly event held by Elite that includes a huge Car Show (held inside!), Drift Event, Sound Comp.. Word on the street is there will be other goodies on the inside too (prizes!!!!).. You will need to come by to check everything out..

The next weekend we are heading down to Atlanta for “Drive Like a Woman” for me and Lieze to tear it up in the Corolla since my car isn’t near ready. Should be good times.. We come back on Monday for this and pick Allie up from her grandparents house for her to start school on that Tuesday.. She starts 1st Grade makes me feel beyond old!

Then the next weekend (Aug 18,19,20) is the weekend that NASCAR visits Bristol! We are heading up for the Truck and Nationwide races but so far not going to Sprint Cup.. Saaaaaaddddddd

So we are rather busy this month… Please send help! and lots of Red Bull..

You can email her about these at lieze [at] misslieze.com and get a quote on your custom shiftboot!

Let’s hope that this works.. I’m really sore today from the level 1 workout, I’ve started logging my food into FITDAY and did my measurements. I am determined to stick with this and lose what I can and gain some muscle tone.   

Maybe I will look like Jillian when I’m done..

So it looked like this…

we cleaned all the dust and stuff outta it and removed the sound deadening (forgive me for the cell phone pics we didn’t take any with a camera)..

We left the dry ice set for about 10-15 mins and hammered away.. besides taking out a lot of stress we also dented my floor quiet a bit oopss!

All the sound deadening out…

This weekend I started with the tar removal that was under the sound deadening.. I will make another post about all of that~!

Thanks to work I had to work until Thursday evening which put us leaving Friday for the big event.. Which really sucks since we usually leave Thursday as to not miss any of the practice or anything.. This year I would be helping out BFF Lieze with the MotorMavens booth that was in the pits. Thanks to traffic and not being used to coming into Road Atlanta via I75 it was going to be taking us a lot longer to get there than planned.. We got there at 7pm just in time to watch the Top 16 (I think) of the ProAm competition.. and hang around with the ATL crew.. We hit up Taco Mac at about 1am and then headed to Andy and Lieze‘s for the night with a few other peeps (the KeepDriftingFun guys, some of the MotorMavens crew, and tons of others)… We crashed at like 3am and was up at 9am to get everything going.. Here’s some pics of a great weekend with great friends.. After working all day my cousin and myself had to drive back up to Knoxville since I had to work Sunday morning.. and miss the following days Turner field event ..

Lieze and I sold a TON of shirts and stickers! We sold out of the orange Keep Drifting Fun ones we are wearing in the pics but like one or two of the larger sizes… It was crazy!

FD Atl is the one time a year I get to see my friends from LA, Thao and Casidi.. Photo Op!

March was the Spring race at Bristol! I embarked on an amazing weekend with Chris and Brianne. We had pit passes to both the Nationwide and Cup races and it was going to be a weekend of EPIC proportions! Being a long time NASCAR fan being in the pits is something every fan dreams of.. To some it up in picture form here we go!

To get into the pits you go through a tunnel that goes under the track…

Once you come out of the tunnel it’s just crazy..

Bristol Motor Speedway is built like a football stadium.. It’s a track completely surrounded by seats.. The weekend was awesome though I got to see so many amazing drivers..

We saw the King, which was my only OMG moment really of the weekend.. It was great seeing all the drivers, but seeing Mr. Petty was really an surreal moment.

Kasey Kahne was hanging with his Sprint driver Brad Sweet before the race..

Ryan and Krissie Newman, during pre-race were so cute…

It did rain some but not enough for them to ever red flag the race… Lots of caution laps though..

Sucked that the 9 car had to have some work done in the middle of the race, very cool that we got to watch them do the work. Bristol doesn’t have garages so they work on the cars right in the middle of the infield.. It was rather interesting to watch them buzzing around to work on it.

It was such a fun weekend.. Bri ninja’d this pic of Chris and I walking back to the car.. Can’t wait for August Night Races!

So lately Chris and I have been playing Connect 4 on our phones a lot lately. We have gotten quiet competitive with the people we are playing against on our free game that we downloaded onto our Blackberries (hopefully iPhones soon!). So as we were in Wal-Mart this weekend picking up some necessaries we found the real deal! So we have had some epic battles this weekend, Chris however was the winner more so than myself. Next time we may have to document our adventures with the Flip cam to make posts like these more interesting….

Well we are finally able to access our sites again! For some reason our router was block our sites.. We had all our IT buddies (and myself, I majored in IT my first bout with college) come look at it and no one could figure it out. So we bought a new router!  So back to updating!  Not much else going on. I have a job now which isn’t much fun still looking for someone to utilize my talents! Hopefully someone in Knoxville will realize that college degress are cool but sometimes you don’t need them to do a job! So anyone needing an awesome marketing/social media/web guru?
