sorry wasn't following your build journal, and I just noticed you needed your center console back, or atleast did. Wouldn't have helped anyways as I was, and still am deployed, so I wouldn't have been able to send you it :<

Sorry for setting you back Travis

Working on custom rear diffuser for my car... the evap canister... the emissions charcoal canister located passenger side tucked just inside the rear fascia... it is in the way of the diffuser... can I ditch that thing? anyone know if it is going to throw the computer into fits?

alternatively, I could relocate it... do you think it'd be a fire hazard to move it into the inside of the car in the hatch?

thanks

I ended up removing jsut the cover for this canister for my GTM 3" dual exhaust to clear

we did that as well... thinking about dropping it all together... will probably do that at the track this weekend and see what happens

All, I have a set of Hoosier 100 series race slicks on order... going to fit them to my 10" front and 11" rear wheels and see if I can turn a really fast time at PIR... fingers crossed!

Thanks Raul!

Hey, take a look at this google maps... is that a racetrack? should I buy it??? Did I mention that I'm moving to Florida?

14567 Fruitville Rd, Sarasota, FL, 34240 - Google Maps

This property sits on 55 acres and Zillow says the price is within reason... hmmm

I'm dying to know what that is... maybe they just wanted their driveway to look that way???

BTW, UVA '01 here... how's Cville? :)

Zooming in, it looks like there's a couple houses off of it. Probably a "neigborhood".


Cville's great. 3 months away from finishing up at UVA, but staying down here to keep working after.

Wahoowa!

Wahoowa brotha!!

upon closer inspection, you're prob right... the 55 acres for that particular house extends west - does not encompass the 'race track'... darnit!!! going to need another dozen racers to buy up the whole thing! lol

ChrisSlicks 02-05-2011 07:22 AM

That's an odd looking development. Looks like it was built years ago but only one house ever got built off it.

Just buy the 55 acre property to the west and we'll rent some earth moving equipment and build you a race track. Paving is going to be expensive though.

RCZ 02-05-2011 08:48 AM

Might as well move closer to this one!

Sounds like I have at least one investor! I've got the real estate agent taking a look

Sweet! I'll be close enough for the odd 3-day weekend trip!

All, just posted today's vid here http://www.the370z.com/track-autocro...tml#post928679

Inching ever closer to the elusive 104 target... tomorrow will shoot for a 1:07.5... Would need FI to fully close the gap - there's no question I am approaching the limit of what this car can give with stock powertrain... car is now 3,150 roughly with driver and half full gas

travisjb 02-06-2011 07:24 AM

Now that I have my setup issue largely worked out... and ABS is back (had a sensor that was dislodged)! :tup: the F3R pads feel much better... and going through all that I think made me a better driver- more sensitive to the thresholds of braking on this car. I still think that for an extremely short track like FIR East where there is a lot of intense braking with brake zone bumps etc, having a pad with better feel would help... but at PIR and Chuckwalla, the F3R is proving to be very effective... just thought I'd drop that quick note... off to the track! :)

Cool, hopefully we will see you at Road Atlanta, Barber and the Florida tracks!
