I ran the event they had this past May. Its a pretty fun course, w/ good top speed on the front straight. Just keep an eye out for the smoothest point of transition from oval to infield; thats where you want to be;). It can be fairly rough in some portions of the transition areas. Have fun.

They wouldn't do it unless someone got called out, I suppose. But, I think that you should ask Brad/Erin to do it. I'm sure that it'd be fun to see two Supras land-barging it around the track, as well as a Ferrari 360 in general.

Sounds good - I'll be the one that's safely guiding the car into and out of the turns, and then hammering it and passing the 10 other guys that passed me before on the straights. I'm just going to drive with a hand out the window, that way people will know to "stay away from that mo'faucka - he crazy!" :eek: :lol:
Pit Pictures FTW as well - Nothing like seeing a cool car on stands from a ground-perspective.

Yes sir - not in good shape right now, but we're going to pull the head on it and get it going again soon.

Don't know - he was supposed to enter the wagon... ha ha! Bruce Lee!
ENTER THE WAG-ON!
But, I don't think that he will have the time/money to get the brakes done. They're in really bad shape. I'll ask him today.

Can't wait! Tires should be in tomorrow, along with some cheapo beater wheels. Suspension is on, as well as finishing up brakes! I'm so ready for this - I just can't wait to get out and drive!

What tyras did you buy Mood?
Nitto 555R Extreme ZR II's. Treadware 100, very aggressive from what I can see, and incredible reviews. Here we go:
http://www.discounttire.com/product/tires/nithz5.xl.jpg
A unique fusion of stiff sidewall construction and Nitto's popular Extreme Drag Radial tread design makes the new NT555RII an exceptional road course performer. Add to that its specially formulated soft compound, and you get a competition radial that exhibits impressive control and handling during severe lateral acceleration. Although the NT555RII is street legal, the tire's construction will offer a rougher ride when used for daily driving.
•High block rigidity, soft compounding and large contact patch provide extreme dry traction in race conditions.
•Two wide steel belts and two nylon cap plies stabilize tread for superior traction and handling.
•Steel sidewall inserts provide control and stability during extreme lateral acceleration.
•Spiral wound, jointless bead construction ensures high casing stability for superior control at high speed.
•Low void ratio and large tread blocks optimize dry traction.

That's high on my list of things to get. I'd love to be able to see if I'm actually doing what I think I'm doing on track.

My next investment will definitely be a camera mount (harness bar of some sort).
