And a lighter car and shorter wheelbase That wasn't my first time on A road course, just THAT road course. I've raced CalSpdWay and Willow Raceway too. I am looking forward to future events and vented rotors...thanks again for the great event.

Are you sure my car was lighter?
I ran with the spare and jack, because its under a sub box made of 5/8 MDF with two 10 inch JL subs.

We will do it again next spring, but earlier in the year to avoid the heat.

I'm pretty sure. I had my car weighed with me in it and a half tank of gas after the SC install and it weighs 3742lbs. That day at the track, I came with a full tank. 350z's weigh 3269lbs dry and I'd assume you weigh right around 200lbs...that's almost a 400 lb dif...plus the shorter wheelbase helps with the corners...WHY would you trailer your car in and still run a spare and jack in the trunk...unless it was for weigh balancing...YES, I will def be interested in the Spring run.

Actual Weight of my car with corner #'s, cross percentages, etc.

Total Vehicle Weight: 3742 lbs (with driver and 1/2 tank of fuel)
Left Front Weight: 1053 lbs
Right Front Weight: 982 lbs
Total front weight: 2035 lbs or 54.38%
Left Rear Weight: 867 lbs
Right Rear Weight: 840 lbs
Total rear weight: 1707 lbs or 45.62%

Left percentage weight: 51.31% (1920 lbs)
Right percentage weight: 48.69% (1822 lbs)
Left front/Right rear cross percentage: 50.59% (1893 lbs)
Right front/Left rear cross percentage: 49.41% (1849 lbs)

So, as you can see by the stats above, my car is not very well balanced at all...and that is a project on it's own.
