Z looks great btw, I'm loving the rims. To bad I missed the event.
Oh, and what tires were you running in both classes? Because your times from modified to unlimited look almost identical.

Regardless, nice meeting both you and Philthy. Hopefully next event Phil's motor or turbos or whatever the problem was will hold together! But hey, that's racing. If you're not breaking ****, then you're not going fast enough, I guess!

It will be back on the track for the next event, with our one of our engines which have proven to be pretty bullet proof on the track.With respect the classes and my times, we ran the Hoosiers in the Sunday morning session, and those times counted for Unlimited (mounted on the TE37's). We then ran a modified legal tire in the afternoon sessions which counted for the modified times (mounted on the Enkies). I had almost no practice on Sat, which is why my morning session Unlimited time was about the same as my modified time. Live and learn.

There was a red Nismo Z that was turning 1:13.9 in mostly bone stock trim. Everyone had a great time....including Sandy who was recruited as a the trophy girl.
