Lol I just found this thread and saw people are still posting in it. I live in Destrehan and I've had my Z since December last year. I have another friend who has a white one who lives in kenner and we've been trying to get like a little Z crew together to do track events and such.

I frequent the track and I'm starting to auto-x. I know I should have read a bit more before posting but does anyone else frequent the track still? Anyone going to any of the upcoming events? I met a guy in a silver Z like mine a while back and I keep seeing a red one but haven't had a chance to talk to him.

sup scott. just as soleil said, we have a crew that frequents the track and we're always involved with modding, hanging out, and local events. We're a pretty close group of friends and love to go hang out and act up. join in with us on the other thread.

Say any of you guys going to test and tune tonight at NPR. I wanted to go with Shane in the turbo Dseries, but I have to help my cousin move. He is going to see what the car will do with the new tune and set up.

nah. I usually never go to test-n-tune nights. I might go to a couple in the fall or winter though.

I was going to say the same thing, the weather is murder to do anything in regards to tuning an testing a car at the moment. We are looking for way at the moment to lower temps while we tune at the shop.

Last saturday a dude from FL came in to rent the dyno for 3hrs and tune his m3 turbo on Microtech.

Well at one point it was 110F in the shop and he still managed to squeeze 417whp at 16psi on that day. It was unbearable in the shop.

DAYUM! Thats insane man. Is there any downfall for tuning in extreme heat aka do you recommend me waiting until the fall to tune?

The only downside is the constant breaks to have the car get back to a reasonable temp, but on the flip side if the car can take the extreme temps and the tune you know its up to par for the real world.

So the main downside is the long tuning time just to keep things in safe manner for the engine. Nevertheless we are making plans to brings temps down and make it more pleasant to tune at the shop in the summer months.

I asked him this a few weeks back and the answer was no

I'm sure if you took LSD, your dyno numbers would increase
