Just when I thought he was finished he told me how much he loves the Z1's but unidirectional tires are meant to be run in one direction and mine are backwards. No ****, dude! Unbelievable!

I thought I was going to make it through the whole day with minimal comments then I get nailed with this guy bringing the trifecta!
You should have told him it's the new Evo diesel, just came out.

It's surprising how many people will come and try to educate you but really have little clue about most of the advice they're giving. If I saw a car smoking on track or someone running tires backwards, I'd mind my own business.

I love when their faces go blank when I say that my AFR's are in the low 11s. I thought that was pretty basic knowledge. I guess only us ricers know the significance of AFR numbers.

I don't think I make bad power for how rich it is. It's like stock richness but a lot faster.

Mike, it's just the typical track guy know-it-all. You know, you're a doctor or lawyer but you know everything about how motors and suspension works. (Not that I do either but I don't lecture anyone or claim that I do.)

i feel really bad for their family.

the only wall i see is at the pit entry, seem like a bad design. must have been a freak accident. if you lose control at the track out on the last turn, you head towards the end of the wall.
