Awesome pics and awesome car!!!

I was curious what the specs of your RPF1s are … offset, spacers? I've been looking to get a set for track use. I remember chatting back and forth when you first posted your CE pics and you said you run A048s with the track setup … I'm assuming 265/35? Do you run them full-tread or shaved? I wasn't sure if it's necessary to shave them or not.

enkeis are18x9.5 40+ all around, u suppose to use 25mm spacers for the front to clear the brembo, but i run 17mm instead since i use alcon brakes, they are further away from the center cuz of bigger rotors, allowing more clearance, 265/35 unshaved............hope this would help

i didn't plan to use the volks for the wet at all, i used to run michelin PS2s in rain pretty good, great control and grip, after i switched to the cheap dunlops to save money, i had NO intention to use them even for the dry, OMG they were so bad in the rain on the track(the rain came so sudden during the track day that i had no choice), i'm not kidding at all, those dunlops on wet are WORSE than my snows tires on 2inches of snow!!

PS. there was another blue evo that day that was running advan neovas in the rain, i bet he was having lots of fun since he was killing the vettes in the rain!!

Wow the pics look amazing. Im always a fan of seeing tarmac black evos on the track. Your passenger/ instructor looks like hes holding onto the oh-**** handle for dear life! Time for some high bolstered seats and harnesses!

From the pics it looks like its a track day, not wheel to wheel racing. There are quite a few clubs in the northeast that you can get track time with, without breaking the bank. Here are a few i can think of off the top of my head:

SCDA - www.scda1.com
COMSCC - www.comscc.com
CARTCT - www.cartct.com
PDA - www.pdadrivingschool.com

Guarenteed to be the best $250 you spent in your life.
