Was that a personal drone or associated with the track?

sorry for the big pics. those things are huge. you got that right tiny E.
the wing is an NPR. i got it off ebay. its a universal and i had to make several mods to the brackets and uprights to get the angle trimmed out to the right angle. i also didnt like the angle of the uprights. they stood up too straight. i laid it back more like the APR that Proven Wicked sells.
i got 3 MPH back over that parachute spoiler i had on there and the difference is huge. you got that right. sorry im about 4 beers in. i crack me up.

Racing legend Andy Pilgrim driving my car @ NCM -- giving feedback too!



Great guy and super nice. Really gave me quite a bit of great feedback (was not a fan of the posi-mod in the diff for road course use) after driving we stopped to discuss the changes he'd like to see (was honest about the sway bars too)...

If you've never seen a full instructor led session @ and HPDI event, this is a complete session with discussion along the way. Its LONG (24 minutes) but will let you know how NCM does their sessions.



Great group of folks @ NCM -- sure wish we had that Festivus day @ LSFest.

He did great, and I found out what I needed to do -- think about it -- legendary pro driver giving advice on how to make my car better. How do you put a price on that (he did it as a courtesy too! for the group)...

That's just the kinda guy he is -- I had an axle pop on him as we really pushed the car hard -- looks like the stock diff bushings were not up to the power and loads the track puts on the suspension, with him driving it.

Learned a ton from him, that was a special treat NCM had for us...

My first trip to Road Atlanta! I was hoping to break 1:50, so I was happy to find I was consistently running in the 1:47 to 1:44 range when I had clean track. I went through a brand new set of Hawk DTC 70's on the front end. I've never used a pair of pads that fast, so I think my winter project will be a brake system overhaul and cooling ducts.
