I want to do a 1/4 mile and see what kind of time I can get. Any recommendations on where/when to go? I'm located in South Park.

I hear that motul RBF600 is good stuff, where can I get it locally, does pepboys carry it, If not whats other good stuff to run, I don't care about cost just boiling point. Also need to get transmission fluid for my neon when I get the new spec clutch in it thursday, what should I get?

Give Tom at spun autosports a call. I think he has some for sale and he is from the area. If not you will have to order it.

Justin, sweet new tires!

Race update: 2 weeks ago I once again blah, blah, blah broke a record and ended up 2nd overall. Heading to Reading PA this weekend for another hillclimb. Hopefully I can win some tires at this event. I'm up a set of race brake pads and I could use some more free stuff. I hope to get all of the new EVO race cars together before the end of the season to terrorize a local track.

Patrick sent me a link to a local guy in Gibsonia that carries it so I'm going to try them first thing tommorow.
As for your racing good job, setting track records is allways fun. Where all do you race, I'm allways looking to rent rides and race absoutely anything I possibly can in any class.

Still can't get my head (or intestinal fortitude) around doing a hillclimb....are there any "hillclimbs for cowards" that don't risk life and limb (kind of like the "little" rollercoaster?)

Congrats on the continued success!

I'm a hillclimber, I will go anywhere they let us race up a hill. (mostly eastern PA). One day it will be pikes peak! Other then that I've raced Nelson's, summit point and BR. I'm the SCR SCCA time trial chair so I also have been trying to get more TT's in our region. I'm also an auto-x driver when I get a chance. I kno your friend Dave H from last years TDI cup. I have heard all about you! Lol . I'm just a EVO owner that likes to race his car!

What the heck are you worried about Patrick? You have a bomb proof cage in that new car of yours. You really should come out and try one, it's not as crazy as you think. Just don't wreck! And you get to drive hills that racing legends have driven! Indy 500 winners and many other legends of the motersport world. You won't race with much more history then on the hills.

No truer words spoken!

I might tag along to one of your events...I'm really intrigued by hillclimbs, as it seems to be a great venue to race; and now that I'm bit less likely to die in my "bomb-proof cage" I'd be more apt to participate
