Default New Z owner in Sebastian!

I introduced myself about a month ago and finally sold my other two cars,along with my old jet ski and trailer to help myself get out of a real upside down car situation and get into a Z.
I really wanted a 2005 and up but I found a great deal on a 2003 Touring and most of the issues I was worried about with the earlier models were already replaced (Transmission,window motors,clutch).

So in the past two years I've gone through a S2000,Fit, Swapped Delsol, and now a Z. No accidents, just bad financial decisions.

Any of you guys into autox with cfsolo2?

I'm in Sebastian as well. I rarely drive my car around town. It usually just gets driven back and forth to the track since it has no A/C. I run the car @ Sebring when I can. I haven't driven it in 6mo now I have been rebuilding the car. I put another new built motor in it (3rd times a charm?) and my third turbo kit.

Have you driven at Sebring? Planning on any modifications?

Ive been trying to get on one of the Chin events but haven't had a chance yet. I just drove the new full course at Central Florida Road Course last night and after the test&tune all night I can easily say the first upgrade will be the brakes. My brakes were on fire after the 4th session and I had almost no brakes for an hour after that. I was researching other mods earlier but after last night I've changed my mind to focus on brakes first.

There is a good deals on Stoptechs. The front is $1995 shipped for the 355mm disc 4 piston calipers whcih is what I use. The rear is the same price I believe for the 355mm 4 piston caliper as well.

I'm going to be going to the new PBIR track next Tuesday to work the bugs out of my new setup.

I really love CHIN and find it better than NASA for the amount of track time you get. Aug 22nd is the next track day at Sebring on the full 12 hour course. Registration opens on June 22nd. Let me know if you want to attend. I'll sign up as well.

Not sure if Ill be ready by then but I may be interested in the Roebling Road event or maybe even the November Sebring event. I would just really rather have my suspension/brakes worked out before I take it out besides the BCC autox.
