Corner speed, check this out. Yesterday I called Goodies Speed Shop here in San Jose to reschedule my dyno. A familiar voice answered the phone. It was the guy I'm planning to hire in April from hooked in driving to help coach me. Anyway, I met him during a World Series party, told him about the 1LE which was on order at the time, and we have since stayed in touch. He's even driven my 1LE. Anyway, this isn't about me; rather, this is about you.
He was at Laguna Seca when you raced and spoke to you. I told him about your videos, that you were passing other cars and that you had the same car as me. He got excited and animated like, "Oh, Yeah! I think he's from SoCal and I spoke to him. He was shredding people all over the place that day. Incredible. I couldn't believe those were street tires." Anyway, thought you'd like to know that people are talking about you and the 1LE up here. It's a small world eh.

I know that, i wasn't being literal.The point was that these tires are for performance on the race track,thats why they are so sticky,soft,and only get about 12,000 miles on them.

Wow Ozzy, it seems you've gone into the light assembly multiple times now. You must be an expert. I suppose when you return to the mainland,I'll let you help me install the halos in my car.

Did you guys change the axle oil before you all tracked your cars? If so what brand of oil did you all use?
