    I think your cv-axle is about to go on your car man! I heard it every time you took the right turn I was watching.

    I also had a blast! Been so long since I have been out there! Ran me a 69 in SM. Not too bad I guess. I think my funniest run was when I spun out haha!

    Heres my 1st run:

    You def picked up the pace in the last one. What was up with the spin out???? Just seemed like a really odd time and place. Was there loose gravel or something? Your cars has a really nice tone to it aswell. Good job

    I really don't know myself about the spin out. I was the only one to spin out there it seemed. my 2nd run was slow in that spot on the track for sure lol. I had some Kuhmo 710's on as well. I am going to go with my 450lb stiff springs for my rear made me spin out haha.

    I can't wait to go out on a shorter course b/c I was around 7k rpm the whole track. (Type-r tranny + shorter final drive)

    i spun out 2 but it's was in the 7 cone switch back's. i was probably doing about 80 when i spun out not sure, all i know was i was in 3rd gear and hauling ass.

    Heres my 1st run:



    That is my wheel rubbin in the inside trailing arm. They are 7.5 and dnt have a very low offset, i was tryin to get some spacers for the wheels, but couldnt in time.I ran a 74, 72, then I ran a 68.56 on my 3rd run, and a 69 on my last one. The dip right before the 1st slalom shot me wide, and i had to take the slalom the opposite direction. I was on crappy tires and just have some megan coilovers. I have all the strut bars, and am lookin for some sways then some better suspension. I will be at the turner feild event the end of the month, hope to see you there man.

    The noise sounded just like a cv axle (click click click... faster with faster mph) but I could be wrong

    But yeah man, I will be out there @ Turner for sure! Gonna have to check out the 4door ( you really need to change your sig!!)

    Yea, it really was. It seemed like the day was just dragging on til it was our turn to go out, then the time flew by. Registration isnt open yet for points 2, so you got plenty of time to make the next event at turner field. You should really come. The atmosphere is really friendly and helpful. Come on!!!!!!!
