I've heard the same thing and I'm skeptical whether or not its true. Could just be a method to increase attendance at these events. But to answer your question, its a good deal. That course is fu(king sick! 22 turns is no joke.

i wish. chu and i were talking about e85 and track days and it turns out that i need a pump gas tune because there is no way i'm bringing 40-50 gallons of fuel with me.

i'd never make it to monticello, run a track day and make it home on e85. unless i had a buddy with a truck and several flo and go's

yeah, its a shame you can't do a dual map or just switch tunes.

Whats the point of all that powa if you can only drive within the range of your gas tank cause there aren't any E85 stations around?

Too far for me.. Knowing my luck, the car would break and I'd have to call AAA to get me home. That would be the longest tow-truck ride EVER!

Any idea how many sessions and if they are 20 or 25 minutes.

Is this going to be similar to a PCA DE is terms of classes, passing, etc?

Pete, have a little faith in the car.

I do have faith in the car... Its hard though when you keep hearing this damn knocking sound from teh front end.

I think I'm going to buy a front swaybar... Marc, you down for the install?

Anyone else?

I'm starting to think mine's bent and thats why it rubs/knocks on the driverside...

Agreed. On that note, I'm going to make an event in September, and for sure October.

I just can't do the coffee can mufflers, other than that the ebay exhaust don't look that bad.

That is a good question Chu... First time I ever heard it was at CBP last year while doing a super tight right hand and turn around. I'm guessing thats when it happened. That would be the right direction for it to occur, not that I've ever heard of it happening to anyone else.
