When I left yesterday the GTR's were ruling. I believe Lock's Cobb GTR was fastest and Cronin was close in either the Z or the GTR (annoucer was unsure which car but said Cronin ran a 1:45.xx). Didn't get a chance to see the J's S2k, but it looked fast. The K&N G35 seemed a little off on the ignition/fuel tuning (massivie backfire or possible mis-fire) and the chassis looked like they were still dialing-it-in at mid day. But nothing looked like it would be too hard to sort out. Today should be an interesting day for the overall in each class.

^how was your ride height with the new wheels?

terrasmak

No problem, i ran 275/40-17 front and 275/40-18 rear, and set my suspension where i had 10mm of clearance on the 3.5 inch rule. I didn't feel like wrenching at the track in a mad scramble to pass tech.

I hear that there were a lot of issues with the timing, etc at this event (and others).....

Terrasmark....you have any issues? How were your lap times?

terrasmak

I ended up with a 2:03.7 best lap, had no problems with timing. I did have problems with overheating the front tires because of turns 1 and 2 then the heavy braking into 3. I did start to get brake fad, probably overheated into 3 (cooling ducts are next). It was a great time, i'm sure i have more time to gain in both driving and car setup. I'll have brake ducts for Willow and am going to see what i can do for installing my Motordyne Y pipe for a couple extra HP.

BTW, thank you for the pics, and how did it sound out there. That was the Motordyne Shockwave with stock cats and stock Y pipe.

What tires were you on???
I ran 1:56's on NT01's last year....

Pretty loud considering that setup, but it sounded pretty nice as well. If you want a good reference Z time you may be able to find a guy named Scott from some of last years (or earlier this year) events at California speedway. Sorry I cant remember his last name, but he drives a pretty stock Nismo with sticky rubber and gets to most of the events in the area (Cali Speedway and Willow) and has pretty solid lapping.

Hey terrasmak,

You say you were getting fade... how many laps before it set in? And if I'm not mistaken you had pretty good hardware on there right?

terrasmak

iTrader: (8)

Nitto NT05's, R comps would be a hell of a lot faster but would bump me up 2 classes.

3rd lap and the brakes were fading, 6 piston wilwood kit with Poly B race pads. They just need some cooling, plain and simple.

What were the air temps out of curiosity?

terrasmak

iTrader: (8)

high 80's low 90's , no cloud cover , track surface really freaking hot. Lap times cam down for everyone the second time attack session cause the wind picked up and cooled the track.

Zazz93

iTrader: (2)

Yeah... A couple of ducts should do the trick.

Change your pad compound first, I have never gotten fade there and have no ducts...Try Raybestos ST-41/ST-43, Ferodo DS3000 or Hawk DTC-60/70 if available. What fluid are you using????
