I remember the IROC series being run there .... or is my memory jaded?

Yup. Until the city more or less grew around it and squeaky wheels complained and complained about noise until eventually it was shut down.

40 min highway driving = warm up lap.

Lol, obviously he is a lone wolf with no concept of why we do what we do. He doesn't know that most the time we are between 60 and 90 mph at the track! Oh well I will keep all my real cf aero that does not work under 90 mph!

While I don't track my car, (seems I have a healthy respect/fear of concrete ) I'd be interested in something like this for the heat dissipation. Midwest summers get a little dicey, and while I drive mine daily, that will not always be the case. I'm interested.




On a side note..... the iggy list grew by one.

I am always amazed at how hot the engine gets. I will lift the hood when I park her in the garage and then go inside for a bit and when I come back out it seems like temp in the garage has gone 20*! I think hood vents are useful mod regardless if track or are boosted. And I am with cooltoy, they look cool if they are done!

Just stop, please. Go find someplace else to peddle your sagely advice. It is not wanted nor needed in this thread.

Please stop, or mods will come in and clean this up. Post only if valuable input is provided, or at least something funny.

Dude, I learned a long time ago. If you want to keep the resale value up. Don't mod. Me and Hotrodz are both over 60. You're not telling us anything new. We know want we are getting into. Been there and done that many a time. Everything I have has been modded or breathed on. Helll, even my motorhome is modded. And that started out at $328,000. All my guns got trigger jobs and other things to increase accuracy. My thing is. If I can improve it to SUIT ME. I will. End of story.

For those not interested Please keep the negative comments out of this thread.

This was intended for those who would be interested and not for the negative low information members.

This would be a GREAT part to bring to life more so since it's getting track experince input.

Good Luck Guys!

Oh come on now. Nobody does mods anymore, and certainly they would NEVER think to cut up a perfectly good hood! or other body parts

I'm not sure about anyone else or if it'd be functional but I'd love to see a hood vent similar to the hood vent on the Evo 9.

Actually Cool Toy could you shop something up like that? I'm curious to see if it'd look as good as I think.
