sweet. i think i will be at the miller motorsports gt live

 

see all of you at California Speedway!

 

i think i can do Tn, VA, WV.....

taking sponsorships from this point forward...its going to be an expensive summer

 

how does the competition normally work? i've done HPDE's and such, just not this. i was looking at the times that people have posted in the street class, and it doesn't look like i should even bother. any tips/thoughts?

 

It all depends on how you aproach it all. If you are just out to have fun and get a little track time and compete for just the fun of it, by all means sign up and join the fun. The street class is clampoing down a lot this year and the rules are going to chgange to limit the mods in that class that are legal in that class, so don't be too discouraged by the times.

 

ah, as i was looking at the website, i thought it was just purely for competition. i didn't know that a common driver like me could just sign up and go at it. i don't have a turbo, i am NA and those times are very discouraging

 

MC, it was cool for you to get that Z meet put together for the VIR Time Attack/GT Live event. I feel bad that we were a little too busy scrambling (runnning 2 classes) to actually spend some time talking to you all. It's not everyday that I can get out to the East Coast and compete and spend time with other Z enthusiests on THAT side of the country. Looking forward to making it out to VIR again for 2008, somehow....

 

Man, I would love to go to something like this! Some day...

 

Well, we can surely fix that.

Horse power isn't everything, I can show you a few examples of that.

I encourage, and am willing to help all track going Z and G drivers, because I believe in these cars and what we are capable of making them do out on the track. The more the marrier

 

scott they going to still allow FI in mod class are they going to be bumped up to unlimited??? I really want to run in the mod class this year, but without FI its not going to be to equal. I can run with the best of them but when it comes to the straights, my poor NA wouldn't stand a chance against a FI car. Using VIR as an example, I can clock maybe 135-140 on the back straight full course where a FI car should pull 160 all day. Just a thought, prolly going to enter in Modified anyhow.

btw: if you can't make it, no worries...i'd be happy to plant my *** behind the wheel of that Z haha - if you need a co-driver on this coast let me know, however.

 

I know they are going to put a lot more limitations on the street classes, but I am pretty sure that they are going to still allow FI, just probably put more limitations on it than in the past.

As for modified class, I am pretty sure that those rules will remain unchanged, and the same for unlimited class.

We are talking about the Redline Time Attack rules, right...... (cause I am)

 

yeah Redline Time Attack...only three out this way but would like to catch them all. Their site has up the 07 rules but I was just being hopeful. thanks

 

show me, show me! (except for SinCity350Z, i've already seen his )

 

here is a little example of HP not being everything. but this was on a short twisty course... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4rcabxuIdnY with quite a few beginner drivers.

 

HP isn't everything on short twisty courses, and certainly not auto-x, but there's a lot of straights to go fast on at laguna and cal speedway. i should fare well in buttonwillow though...hmmm....
