white rs

My buddy who has a 09 RA said he saw a white VIII out in the Jeannette, Irwin area which he has never seen before. It may be the white RS you guys are talking about. He said it was pretty much stock.

Sorry i have not posted in a while or have been to any other meets but the first one this year. but i have been fixing up the car. got the turbo rebuilt. went AEM to factory and now i'm putting in a tilton twin disk. I am still trying to locate an oil leak before anything. I hope to have her ready for the next meet.

Is anyone here coming up for autox this thursday at BR. We've been setting up more open faster courses that favor cars with some motor.

I'm excited to see how a bone stock X runs against the usual competition. Hoping on FTD

I plan on not making it easy for a X on Sunday! It should be a fun event this weekend. I have a co-driver also that should have some fun in my car.

Are you tempting me to bring the EVO instead of the S2000?

Sunday is the club challange in Ohio! Steelcity region won the first 2 years snd last year the flatlsnders from Ohio took the title. We want it back this year!( plus the $500 for the club)

I will defend Eric alittle on the tags. He and BR are trying. Hopefully they will
get things sorted out and get up to par on a few items. It is still a great deal for seat time.

Well, a bone stock X will lap BR in 1:09.6 on a hot track. I would expect a 1:09 flat on a cooler day. Pretty damn good for a heavy, underpowered 4dr sedan. For reference to all the non track drivers a 2010 GT3 will get into the 1:04's. 5 seconds is a lot of time but for a car that weighs a ton less, makes 150whp more, way better brakes, suspension and chassis isn't bad at all.

I suspect with just a rear sway bar i'd be able to cut a full second off.
I'll test that in a day or two.
