Yep, definitely need an alignment. Not immediately but as soon as possible as itll be out of wack. Thats my one concern. Kw has yet to send me their camber bolts, and I dont want to do any alignment till they come. ETA is mid July ):

thats why I said 'evo friendly'

have you thought about letting Mike co-drive your car with his wheel? that could be a nasty combo...

He's either not coming, or will be co-driving a 370Z in C-Stock!

Me and some buddies are signing up for a weekend of HPDE @ Watkins Glen August 13-15 (Friday-Sunday).
The cost is $350 for 3 days without an instructor, or $390 for 3 days with an instructor.
There will be 5 - 25 minute session per day, that’s over 6 hours of track time spread out over the weekend!
To give you an idea of how good of a deal this is, racing organizations like PDA charge $350 or more for ONE day at the track and you usually only get 4 or 5 - 20 minute session.

This is with PCA (Porsche Club of America), the same group that Ben (06RS) just ran with where he posted all the pics of those bad *** race cars. They put on a very safe event and have some of the best instructors in the industry. Not to mention everyone is very easy to get along with. At this price spaces are filling up quick, so I wanted to pass the invite along to you guys cause I know some of you have shown an interest in doing one of these. As of right now I don't believe they are doing one or two days, its all 3 days or nothing.

You don't need ANY racing experience to participate, total newbs are welcome. There will be instructors there working with you all weekend. You don't need any modifications done to your car either. In fact the less you have done the better off you are. The only requirement is that you have a mechanically safe and sound vehicle (which will need to get tech inspected), a helmet and a desire to learn. If you want to get in or just want some more info shoot me a PM and I'll get you rollin.

Keep in mind I'm no way involved with PCA other than being a member. I don't get kick backs for signing people up or anything like that, my only motivation is to get more EVO owners out there to enjoy their cars how they were meant to be enjoyed.
so tempting

Drove the RA in to the city, usually drive the wet sock vtec powered civic. On the way back with the rain coming down I was cringing as I drove over tree debris all over the road. Some larger pieces luckily pass underneath without a problem. I already have a broken fog lamp don't need to add to that. At least my fuel door is hella flush.
