Damn goofy! You flew by that 911 turbo like it was nothing! Granted, you could tell the guy in the porsche was a beginner but still... dayum! What kind of suspension are you running right now?

Actually I think he was asking if he already had passed the silver vette (it was slow).

I had zero issues all weekend (other than a weird buzzing sound on Saturday that I didn't hear Sunday at all). No brake fade, no boiling brake fluid, etc.

I did have one set of wheel lugs that needed tightened and I recheck my UICP because the other X and one of the IX's blew theirs off and I didn't want that same thing

Definitely. The pictures are from different sessions

And actually with the driver that was in my group I could hang with him. Now the owner of the car is an instructor and he was lapping everything. EVERYTHING.

Oh... I guess I did have one problem. I had to keep going to the gas station. I filled up 5 times over the weekend. By the end (when I was really getting on it), I was getting < 5mpg. And considering that I'm not springing for a $600+ antisurge kit, I have to keep it topped off in order to make it around the track

Luckily gas is cheap.

ETA: I need a tune to lean out the car in a baaaaad way. The rear is covered in soot (enough to write in).

upper intercooler pipe (the one that goes across the top of the engine). The stock worm clamps are pretty poor at actually staying tight.

Looks like the first picture was a parade lap since no one has helmets on. So you didnt actually pass him or you did?
