See maybe I shouldn't have suggested this track day stuff lol.... well the vendors probably are loving it ......

Let the arms race begin

We were just talking about whether it was worth it to mess with the transmission.... you Sir are a brave soul.....
I don't mess with transmissions unless they are broke.... those things are a trip.... so sensitive.....

On the other note.... a little trash talking in good fun is cool.... but being mean spirited isn't.....
I had to work and missed this one..... if the schedule didn't have to be changed I would've been there with good cheer and lots of BEER

Capitol Raceway in Crofton has a pretty nice test and tune on friday nights. Went this past friday and ran a 14.645 @96.31 in my LFX. Best time so far after two trips!

I think most of my time at MIR will be in the Midnight Madness Bracket Race Series. T&Ts are great but I like the competition of the bracket race plus it is cheaper and you get plenty of practice runs before the races.

Yep, they started runs again last weekend.
This next couple of weeks are just test and tune, people need to try out those off-season mods and knock out the cobwebs.
