Remember that whole "Race in Mason County" stuff? Well, fast forward a few months and they just completed paving on the track!

 

Thanks for posting, that looks like a fun track. I like the switch backs at 2:08. There are a lot of tracks in our area now

 

very nice, look forward to next year!

 

Bigger track to stretch the legs and toes on the FD.

 

How long do you think it'll be until the fd will be running?

 

Awhile. Doing everything myself (motor, turbo fabrication, cage and paint) with working 12hr days

 

That looks like it's gonna be a beautiful track when it's done. Thanks for posting the video.

 

Wend is it going to be finish!

 

I am planning to have two cars I will want to take to the track next year, can't wait.

 

What are the two cars?

 

This track will be turbo LSX friendly for sure I like the downhill switch back like Laguna corkscrew.

His FD and Miata.

 

45 miles from my house - sweet. Need to finish the car now - I bet Dan beats me also.

 

yay!!

 

500hp all motor 93 RX-7 and 500hp 09 GT-R actually. I wonder which one will turn faster lap times.

 

Can't wait to see your FD after that motor work. What upgrades did you do? FD battles!!!

 

Few corners for me to drift on :D

 

What do you do for a transmission in the 7?

 

Here are the details in case anyone is into LSX V8 motors.

Engine: 224/226 114lsa custom cam, ultra light roller rockers, Comp racing lifters, TEA ported Trickflow 215cc heads, and 2qt accusump.

Transmission: Camaro T56 6 speed upgraded to handle 700hp, 15lb flywheel, carbon clutch, and Kaaz 1.5 way differential.

Body/wheels - still planning but I have a 99 spec front bumper and wing, Pettit wide body rear fenders, and Ronin wide body front fenders. Looking to run 315 tires in front and 335 in rear. Not sure if I will actually do the wide body though since it is expensive to do all the body work, paint, and get custom wide wheels.

The setup should be good for 7200 rpm (1000 rpm over stock) and 425-450rwhp with a really great powerband and excellent throttle response.

 

So 24hrs of Lemons has already scheduled a race there on July 21st-22nd! I SO want to enter and I SO don't have the time Work is likely to be epic busy for the next few months... by the time it calms down it'll be too late.

 

Thanks for the info. I'll keep this in mind for when my engine eventually fails

 

Looks like lots of speed on the front straight can be achieved. Which car has more torque?
