during the fun runs the track felt like it had alot more grip, maybe that is cause i did about 10 of them haha. The more i run my car the more i realize these cars liked to be pushed hard. Pete was telling be he got about 130+ miles on the track day on friday, damn! I must do it, whens the next one you guys are going to?

There are a bunch coming up in early to mid June. I'm working out the schedule, and may join Mark for my birthday weekend.

I'm glad you're learning about your car. What I'm even more excited about is you doing my interior! lol.

Yep, I reset my trip counter when I got in paddock on friday. Between running back and forth to Lightning a few times for fuel and water, driving around paddock between runs groups, I had 147.3miles on the car. I figure around 130 or so had to be on track...

Friday was F'ing awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I didn't feel this way about autox after my first event.

I also done want to wait until the end of July to run again. I need to see if I can get back out there sooner. The harsh reality may be that I'll have to wait. Who knows.......

Also it totally got me to blow off steam. I've been stressed on edgy the past couple of weeks. I feel way more relaxed after being able to chill Thursday night then drive all day Friday.

Feels good, man!

Chu, wipe your calipers down with some brake clean the next time your wheels are off, they'll look better.
