Running at High Plains Raceway in Byers CO. Track is almost 2.5 miles long.

MP4S tires (300 treadwear), stock Z/28 (fuse mod only, plus an OEM Gurney flap), stock alignment, recommended 15w50 oil. Drip tray removed from hood. Saw oil temps as high as 262 on the last session (30 minutes), weather was mid 70's.

Had so much fun, I darned near ran out of fuel at the end of the day. The car runs/handles amazing, sounds great, eats up the pavement. I love it. Those of you who claim to never want to track your car, but otherwise enjoy spirited drives thru the countryside are missing out. The main differences are 2 fold: No oncoming traffic, no cops around.

Man, I could watch that on a loop all day! That looks like a brilliant track, has a beautiful flow to it. Kinda reminds me of a grassy version of Willow Springs.

Absolutely echo your comments, can't wait for the next 5 months to go by so I can get back out on track!!
