Hey guys! My name's Terry and I have a little V6 setup for the track. You might have seen it around C5... I was the first one with a wing and splitter.
I've done a few other mods as well. Pedders coilovers, SS brembos w/EBC blue NDX pads and ATE Blue fluid in stainless steel/teflon lines, Airaid, MRT axelback, Trifecta tune, and hopefully the IPS TT setup in the near future. I've also ducted the front brakes and ran twin 3" ducts to the airbox from just above the splitter. I have TSW Nurburgring 20" wheels with Hancook Ventus V12 tires on ATM.
I've run 2 TDs so far. First was at Sebring on stock tires and brakes. Not much fun on the stock brakes! First session I tried to get aggressive with the brake markers, the pedal went to the floor in turn 17! I did, however, find out how much speed you can scrub off in a turn...
After that, I was basically coasting into the turns as this video shows.

And last February at Homestead with the new brake setup. I had problems with the new pads though so I only got a few laps till they started to shudder. I think I have them sorted out now. We'll see at my next TD at Sebring on Memorial Day weekend.

Sure wish I could of made it out to C5F2... I had a blast at C5F1... I woulda loved to get out there and show up a few of the SS guys! LOL!
I've road raced motorcycles for many years so, being at the track is pretty familiar to me...
Now, it's just getting the car to do what I want it to do.... that's the fun part!
