Track Day Chat

Did my first track day in the Z. Fun and eventful day. I should have done more research before going out there. Had no idea of the fuel starvation issues

Did my first track day in the Z. Fun and eventful day. I should have done more research before going out there. Had no idea of the fuel starvation issues these cars have. When I noticed the sluggish with 3/4 tank I was in full denial. Oil temps got to about 250-260 on a 70-73deg day. Unfortunately, it was the first time I had to get the towed off track.
