Assume way, I'm 12 hours away from you. Come up to the SCCA National Tour in Packwood Wa. and you can drive my Nismo sense you're such a bada$$, and sense your seem to know my car's setup, and hell everything else.

Seriously though, it's an open invite. If you make it over this way I will be more then happy to let you drive, and maybe there is something both of us can learn in the process. That's happening July 5-6 in Packwood, WA at the former Hampton Mills Lumber Plant. PM me if you're interested.

For the record, I know just about nothing and everything I say should be taken with a grain of salt. I'm also not a "badass". I just got humbled so bad in El Toro... Went home with my tail between my legs. I have this problem where I try cars that no one has before.. Over and over. This leads to virtually no success at a national level. I like spending money that I don't have and bitching about getting pounded ... Yet, I keep coming back for more.

If your primary testing ground is Packwood, that might explain why fuel starve hasn't happened. I've been to the Packwood tours twice. Not grippy asphalt at all if I recall. Awesome site though. Very beautiful.

Is your car ASP? Would love to talk shop. I just test fit some 18x11" +20 wheels square yesterday. They fit great. Should be able to stuff 295's front and maybe as much as 315 rear without any fender modification. Are you offering a co-drive for the tour? I'd be flattered.... But I ain't running the car with half a tank. I'll get too pissed when WE do fuel stave.

Btw, if you guys are still compelled to argue please do it somewhere else. I still plan on tooling my car for STR.... For the time being. Just messing around with other stuff as well.
