I might try and make it out this friday as I am off work, and I have really been itching to run..... (normally that would be impossible because of traffic)
Zain, if you decide to go this Friday, let me know? I might come and check out the track.

I know I need some practice lauching awd at the track, but once I get the hang of it the car should be in the 13.6 - 13.8 range so you would have to put Zain in your car.

Or Bert can run it and pull a 13.3 for me.

I'm leaning toward the track day on the 19th. Might even try doing some practice launches between now and then, who knows

LOL, you talk it up like your going to practice launching a 1000whp car on slicks.

Its 300 hp and AWD, rev it up, DONT dump the clutch (quick slip), and mat that b!tch until you are thru the traps.

So easy, a caveman could do it...

You saw what happened when I tried launching the car when we went to capitol that one time. Let it out way to fast and bogged down. Just need a couple of tries to see how quick to slip the clutch but avoid burning it up. (It's only 220 hp or so.) Should be about the same amount of power shin has in the Z.
