First350 and I will be doing a track day at PR, hopefully Rahtok and others can join us. I believe that there's no WWSCC events until August but there are a few SCCA and other regional autoX's as well as a regional ProSolo events in Packwood.
I'll be at the NWARC trackday and probably running IRDC races at PR on 8/4

I think me and my bro will be there. I'll be there w/ the Z but just to be able to put miles on it. I'm thinking I might run in ST2 w/ the S14.

Congrats First350 on your Enduro victory! One more win for the Z and one step closer to another championship for the Z!

Woo-Whoo!! 350Z FTMFW!

Congrat to First350 for winning the 2007 WWSCC Improved A Championship! It might be a little pre-mature to celebrate, but as fas as points go, I think that the rest of the field is matematically eliminated point-wise.

First350, when we have a Z/G meet next year you gotta come wearing the jacket. Even better... instead of having them put your real name on it, have 'em put you forum name.

The season is not over yet, still one more event. 2nd place will go to either Jeff Chin (Silver S2k) or John Floyd (Red S2K). Jeff was First350's nearest competition but he didn't show up at the last event and as a result lost his option of droping any of his low times.

I'm looking forward to '08 where I can challenge First350 for the IA title. But a buddy of ours is gonna be driving an angry STi in the same class against us. It'll be an interesting season.

thanks Drivesolo - it's been a great year! I've still got lots to learn...next year will be challenging going against an STI and your '07 Z (I'm starting to go over some suspenion mods that could help close the gap for next yr...can't let you win by too much!)

Wasuber - hopefully you can come out to some more events before the season ends...you've been getting faster and faster every time!

You know... if we have 3 350Z's running in IA next year, it would look pretty bad for us if anything other than a Z wins.

One more event in Everett this year? oh noes! I should have gone to more guys but I'm in the same boat as drivesolo (baby) Next year I'll be at every wwscc event for sure. Of course I'll be 3rd or 4th place, but I'll burn off those toyo's so I can get some real tires put on

nice! there's also BSCC (Bremerton) events...a bit farther drive, but much faster and more open courses!

At some practices early next yr, I should still have my current Hankook R-comps on the car...if you want, you can try them out and see the difference - you won't want to go back to street rubber!

YESSsss... once you feel the grip of R-comps you will go back to your regular street tires and wonder "How do people drive on these things?"
