Definitely give you a shout out if I make any plans!
Also let me know which events you are going to.
I'm trying to go to at least 2 HPDE events while I'm home.

What are thinking of replacing your G2s with?

I'm toying with idea of getting a second set of Volks for the track.
18x10s on all four corners due to better rubber choices and being able to rotate the tires.
Considering the TE37SL Black Edition and TE37RT because of the available offsets.

I'm not sure. I like black wheels a lot.. but I'm thinking I might do something for the wheels to stand out. Not sure what though. IF I do end up getting wheels, I'll come up with something.

I'll slap you if you get my forgestar bronze burst wheels. Seriously. One badass backhand. ;)

I'm not sure what that is. The only wheels you've mentioned were matte gunmetal. And I thought they were Enkei's or something like that.

I'll hit him up and see if he ever posted them. I gave up on the video, it didn't come out that great.

Do you know which events? I'm going to try and go to most of the NASA events next year. I know they do one in February at VIR usually. Might try for that if I don't have to work.

I have a set of RPF1's that I use for track/autocross. 18x9.5/10.5 +15. I'm using hankook RS-3's 265/35/18 and 285/40/18 for now until I can find a way to transport my wheels to the track without bolting them onto the car. Once I figure that out I'll probably be upgrading to hoosier A6 or R6.

Ryguy 10-31-2013 09:06 PM
Well if anyone of you guys want to get rid of your wheels anytime soon (as in before mid dec) I might be able to make a deal with you. But I would prefer if they had tires still on them. I don't know if I could buy cheap rims and new tires too. But just let me know.

I remember what it was like before I had a neighbor with a lift in his garage. It wasn't fun.

Not yet. Waiting until I know when I'll be coming back. How ever I will say this, I will not be going to any NASA sponsored events. All of my track buddies have warned me not even think about NASA. They said their safety is a joke and you are just a $ to them. When I have an idea of which events I'm considering I'll let you know.

If and when I do get a set of rims for track use, initially my track rims will bum a ride on my friend’s trailer. Looking into eventually getting a small trailer for the track that my Z could pull. It would be handy for other things too. I don't have the room for a SUV/Truck and full sized trailer. Tire wise I would get Yokohama Advan AD048 for starters. They're street legal so I could drive on them to an event if needed.

Sorry.
Holding on to all of my rims, including my stock rims, for now.
I use my stock rims for my "winter" tires.

Ryguy 11-01-2013 05:14 PM
It's all good. I just got new tires a couple months back so I'm in no rush to get new wheels. I'm just leaving VA in dec so I was just testing the water thinking I might get lucky

Not sure who you've talked to man, I've been to 2 HPDE's with NASA and I thought it was great. The people were awesome, both my instructors were great and it was pretty well organized. I will be doing NASA next year but I am also open to the idea of other clubs.

Well I have heard that too. I have no dealings with them so I can not confirm anything. If it was just 1 or 2 people saying that I would take it as some one who had a one time bad experience. Considering the number of times I've heard bad things and the sources make me very cautious of NASA events.

I never take one or two bad reviews as fact.

Onelownismo 11-01-2013 09:13 PM
I'm curious what they meant when they said safety is a joke.

Mostly I hear that they run their HPDEs more like open track days.
Not enforcing passing rules.
Not dealing with aggressive/unsafe drivers.
Not dealing with people racing each other.
The strict structured rules are what make HPDEs a lot safer than open track days.

Yup. It was ****. :shakes head: We were there for about 40 minutes. Long enough to meet a couple of other guys there and then I was like, this is stupid, I'm out.

Well maybe if you gave us more of a notice more people would have gone!

Running4Mayor 11-04-2013 07:23 AM
Do anyone wanna go down to Coasters again this weekend? The drive was fun and I have a few more beers I wanna try out!

Most of those small local car shows suck. I usually don't even bother with shows anymore. I'm more about going then showing. :driving:

I posted it right after I got a text from someone else that invited me. We all got the same notice. I wasn't really all about it. Just thought I'd make a public service announcement. ;)

First comment... yeah. Going is more fun that showing. Showers don't really go anyway.

Second comment... no ****. 72 pt font aint big enough? lol

Third comment... awesome. I'm saving that day to roll down. We can figure out a good time to go that is good for everyone. And of course, after 3pm. :tup:

Does anyone want to buy a samsung tablet?

Onelownismo 11-05-2013 05:50 PM
Also, party at my place saturday if anyone is interested. It's going to be mostly people I work with so far.

Tigger 11-05-2013 07:49 PM
Yup. Good there for Saturday.

So! Who is going to Elizabeth City? I figure it'd be best to leave around 2 - 2:15. Meet up in Chesapeake this time in the Greenbrier Mall parking lot right across from the Red Robin parking lot. I think it's either Sears or Dillards side it would be in. Either way, right by Red Robin.

This will save some of us the unnecessary drive out that way and will make it a bit easier to keep everyone together from the start.

Post up if you plan on attending so we all know who to expect. Thanks!
