i'm in for porsche and planes event.

those guys ***** foot so badly. it isn't like the pca trackdays where there are some seasoned drivers. last year, there were a lot of guys that buy porsches as status symbols then think they'll have some fun with them..

let's just say last year it was my second autox and i beat some people straight up.

It's actually a really nice event. They give you lunch, and drinks at the end

I think you guys should make the trek to Warminster Autox versus Reading, even though I have no idea where you run in Reading. There will be 20 Evo's (almost ) at Warminster, that has to make it worth the trip! Plus there is the Brick House by Turnpike entrance for after drinks if anyone is up for it. Brick House is like Hooters but nicer IMHO.
Warminster Air Strip usually makes for a Slalom intensive, transition happy course with one or two sweepers. Basically there is only so much room on runway side to side, but it always seems to be fun courses there.
Chu will hook you with the sweet workers assignment (waivers) if you let him know.

Last detail its my birthday next Monday, so you regular Philly Autox bishes owe me a shot on Sunday to get me ready to be old! I think I am having early mid life crisis...

honda-guy.... how does your car handle at speed with just Aero in back of car and nothing done to front? I would think car is a little out of balance like that, could use some front Aero help to balance it out. Just a minor splitter in front? Educate me...

because of my TTA classification, i didn't have enough mod points for front spliter at the time, but i have removed some stuff to gain mod points back for a front splitter which i'll be working on soon. the car has TRE maxlock with 1.5 way diff, so it does rotate nicely on power exit. it push slightly on high speed sweeper entry, but it does stabilize the rear on high speed transition and braking. i don't have ABS, so rear does get twitchy under hard braking. the angle of attack is not very high now but i'll change it when i have the front splitter on.

i have not driven the car without the rear wing, so i have no comparison. i know the wing made a huge difference on my s2000 which was very tail happy.
