Lightning is such a good beginnger track, I like it alot. Maybe I haven't been on it as much as you guys, so I'm not bored of it. It definitely has some nuances that I'd like to work on. Having run both tracks, my opinion is if one can run well on Thunderbolt, then they should be much faster on Lightning. ***Dan should be passing me on both tracks***

There's not prepping you can do to an evo in ttc, only 5 points to use.and I would use that on a boost controller or tires.

^ actually, you don't even have 5 points to use because stock evo 8 is ttc +14 point, and then +5 points for all turbo cars (because ecu flash is free). So it would be a complete stock evo with a tune.

I never said I've mastered Lightning, not even close. I would prefer to spend my time on a different track though.

Also, your probably right, Marc. I haven't given a single point by in my last 4 days running Lightning. In my last 5 track days in general.

WTF is up with multi-quote

Thai, you can run smaller tires to get points back. trust me, I've already run the numbers and I think an 03-04 EVO with 235 Z1's, the right weight and a tune would lay a :17 or better down at that track with a good driver. whats that record again!

Pete, that right there is PROOF you need to advance a run group. Like I told you before you aren't doing anything, except building your ego up, by driving around slower cars/drivers all day. Come play in advanced with the big boys.

The only difference is you can pass anywhere and expect idiots to make bad passes.

I don't think that would be the case at Thunderbolt, I pointed cars by there last time I ran it (Mat). TrackDaze, I should have been moved up, no doubt. BMW event was a facking joke, I should never have been put in green to begin with. Then to deny moving me up due to "over crowding in yellow" was even more BS on top of it.

Multi qoute takes forever because our thread is growing too long again. We need Philly 3.
