which car did you drive? i only saw one other z out there and it was mike's.

overall very fun event. does anyone know if redline will post the results? my best time of the day was 1:31.00 (sooo close to 1:30) on my ultra lap timer. temp was 82 degrees. eibach springs, hotchkis sways, spc front arms, and stock everything else.

there's still probably about 1-2 seconds to be had, i think, but i havnt quite figured out the best way through the chicane yet. turn 1 is also a bit unsettling if you dont tap the brakes before entering. on my miata, i used to go full through turn 1 and hard on the brakes before entering 2. but on this car, it's too fast if i stay on the gas and the rear gets all light and uneasy.

The car never made it there. When Robi put the OSD Giken in they didn't tell us the axle shafts were different. Robi lucked out and got some shafts from Fontana Nissan's rig there Friday and installed them today. We'll be out at Big Willow tomorrow for Industry Day and maybe Button Willow on Monday. I'm in Lancaster now.

Great times by the way! Sorry we couldn't hook up...

You're car was the base model so that's why the shafts were wrong, they definitely should have asked you that when ordering. Oh well.
