Mike,

Here's two from that event last week.





Not autocross, so these will have to suffice...

Who took those shots? I'd love links to the higher res versions...

Richard

Heres a larger pic Richard, Dave from the Z club took them. I will see if I can get his original.

Looks like the track day was a blast! And the wheels look great in motion!

I thought about it but Sheila and I are due to wed the weekend before so we will have to pass. I wish I could because I have a first in bsp from Jacksonville SEDiv and would only need two more for an over all. Maybe next year. I take it your not autocrossing today with ODR.

hey,
ya. I just had it installed about a month ago. Brian in the very quick, yellow 240z installed it.
It's got some get up & go now. haha
I'm working 8-6 on that saturday, but I'm looking to get it off! we'll have to see?

I went to the last event at the Dixie classic fairgrounds in Winston-Salem.
1st time with the supercharger. Loads of extra power, but pretty smooth.
Of course still off the pace that Michael sets in his Blue 350z.
If I go, I'll let you take her out for a spin.

that'd be awesome!

i'm actually running a BSP car at NCAC. i'm driving Matt's silver 350z. i definitely won't be any match for brian, but we'll see who else shows up in bsp.

sm eh? that's tough! esp. wit the tegelers e30 m3 in that class.

i haven't had a chance to run against michael in a while, but my guess is he's only getting faster with those ohlins! hopefully i'll have my tires mounted and konis installed at the start of next season to give him some better competition. BS is going to be pretty competitive at NCAC. we've got scott grumbles in the mazadaspeed, michael, another miata driven by a guy named john i think? and an m coupe.. yikes! i wish i could run BS but i can't bring my car down to NC the weekend NCAC is since i also have to move all my crap into my house in winston. oh well. bsp won't be so bad! unless michael reads this and decides to let me take the blue beast for a spin.

No, it is black artist's tape. sort of hard to come by, but twice as thick as normal artist's tape and still ph balanced.

lil Talledega in the rain.


in the dry.


Hauling ***. I left my the right sized sprocket at home on accident so the kart was topping out at around 90 instead of 120 where it should have been for this course. Didn't get FTD because of it but it was still alot of fun.
