heard good things from codie's dad man... glad you boys enjoyed the track event.

when are we finally gonna mod that 370 of yours to compete with codie ;) ?

glad you had a good time... Its cool to see the camaro act can go around turns too.. I am not a hater or many cars and I like all the cars you went with...

its crazy how close you all were...

But all there times were solo? and you had a passenger? That makes your time very impressive... the 370z seems to be a great track car for people like yourself..

I can not wait to get out there... just need to do a few things to the car first.. if not this year, Def next year will be a busy schedule for road racing...

How did your brakes hold up ? No signs of ice mode?

When i have as much money as him haha. after going out this weekend ive noticed little things id like to change on the car. but all the big things will happen over the winter, or when money starts pouring in

we all had instuctors. mine was by no means the smallest. the car is sick around the track. it surpised the crap out of me the first time and it just keeps getting better. the things that you can do with the car stock suspension and motor, its mind blowing. i was passing vettes, GT mustangs, i even passed a ZR1.... this guy was by far that slowest guy on the track. no one knows why he was so slow. but i actually laped the guy twice.

Brakes were perfect. no ice mode, no brake fad, no boiling fluid. only problems i came across was the god awful fuel starvation. and i started to lose the clutch at the end of the 25 min session. I think its mainly due to the fluid bc i didnt swap it for high temp fluid.

i know why, the car is really expensive and the guy cant drive

We had one of those at ours. It was a brand new track prepped yellow viper, painfully slow around corners. Nice guy though.

ah , have perf throw in some motul fluid in and the SS line , makes a big diff !

That's why comparing cars based on HPDE is such a crabshoot, too many variables. If I have a 100K car, I know I would drive slow too. Heck, you should give the guy credit for showing up.

Yep, he drove 400 miles each way, drove it on track and drove it home. Nothing wrong with being a bit cautious especially when your skills aren't fully developed. I like to keep my car on the black stuff as well so I'd say I'm usually only driving 9 to 9.5 out of 10 to leave a little fudge factor. There were a couple of tire wall incidents over the two days, one of them quite heavy. It's never fun seeing a car brought in on the wrecker.

When I was in NJMP two years ago, I pushed my car a little too hard and went onto the grass. Thank god these new tracks have huge runoffs compare to the older tracks.

I have motul brake fluid. No brake lines yet. Didnt have the money for those along w everything else. Working on the brake lines, sway bars and a set of coil overs.

I do give the guy credit. It takes some balls to being a car like that out there. Butttt I think he could have beat on it a little bit lol

Coming home with a complete car and a little slower then coming one w a wrecked car.

You can replace those as money permits. When I went to the Glen, I had brake fluid, clutch fluid, carbotechs, oil cooler, tires and that's it. Now that I think about it, I still have the same thing on my car. I have two mortgages to pay, can't afford to dump it into the car.

Problem is the run off is on the outside of the corner. The two that crashed tried to save it, spun back across the track and into the inside tire wall. It is important to take note of where the run off is and isn't, an off road excursion isn't all bad as long as you don't hit anything.

yup, very good point. It takes practice to know where to go off without hitting things

I meant SS clutch line

I changed the fluid and kept the stock line, clutch has been good. Probably a little extra insulation around the line wouldn't hurt either.
