Which Enkei's do you run?

You really should! Just wish I could do the Track Attack before the Ring! Chips happen, have a few on mine, it sucks, but life goes on. I am afraid of going off the track though, saw a 3 series that was pretty banged up last time out

From Sunday, lap one of two. Not the fastest out there, but it sure is fun. Hard to believe how many cars out there have full cages.

Love the way Eric hung it out when he passed the pace car. How long is a lap? You were out there for a while

That looks scary and fun, thanks for sharing! What was that beast that past you at 6:04? Was that a red M5?

About 21km. Have to admit the two laps Sunday are probably my quickest. First video I took was about 5 min longer. Of course my 9 yr old daughter was in the back seat having a blast.

Here is what I did with my Boss this past weekend, tracked the car at Watkings Glen. Had my fastest lap ever, a 2.24. In this video my fastest lap was a 2.25. Runing almost new P-Zeros. Had a great instructor.

I prepped mine to go to the track this weekend. Brake pads, brake fluid, springs, and ordered a panhard bar and camber bolts. All for nothing because I ended up having surgery last night for appendicitis. So now I cant go racing. WTF. The worst part is that I think that was the last track day for the year.

Better to have prepped and not tracked, than to have never prepped at all.

Tough news man, hope you recover quickly.

Is that like having a MGW and never installing it?

I just installed the Energy suspension shifter bushing and all I can say is WOW what a dramatic improvement over the stock bushing. When i removed the stock one it was a super soft rubber material. The Energy bushing is a strong poly bushing and made the shifts feel crisper and it also helped with the cold 2nd to 3rd grind. I highly recommend this bushing to any one. Install was easy and the end result was awesome.

Had it inspected ( NY emissions) .passed of course, its still stock.
But had the dealer do the TSB on transmission ( New Fluid type dual disc type as per 8/11 TSB).
And i had dealer change rear diff fluid, as per maintenance manual.( after any track use) ..
Dealer charged my $10.00 for NY state inspection and then they bent me over on rear diff fluid change $ 210.00 WTF. Charged me $20.00 just for the sealer for the cover.
