I might hit up the Jan 19th one, if not I'll be out there on the second. I bought another 8 and this one's on lowered springs so we'll see how the suspension works compared to the old stock one.

I might show up. I doubt I will run though. I over heated my driver front tire at the last 3 events so it looses grip like crazy once it gets warmed up. I wont have new wheels and tires by then.

@autoxgt...

Add 2 psi to that front tire. It will kill a bit of the grip, slip a tad sooner, and let the other 3 tires pick up the load. You should not see much of a performance hit, and that tire will run cooler. That will kill a little body roll as well, so the car will feel a bit different.

Still going as long as the weather holds out.

Sat is a 20% chance of rain.

Today was fun and the weather was awesome.

Nice meeting you to.

I'm uploading video to YouTube now so it should be ready soon.

Don't get down on you're lap times. You were driving a good line, you just need to get a little more aggressive and use all that power you have.

The video has 4 or 5 of my runs and a couple of Firecran's runs just before I left.

Nice video and good driving man!

Yeah, I'm to worried about spinning out and hitting something
The power band is like a on / off switch but i still had a good time.
