I read it here as well. It may have only been the early 07s, possibly a select number of VINs. See what they diagnose and let us know.

Autox isn't bout power from what i understand but
More on the suspension setup and driver. A good LSD helps too. I'm sure a veteran will explain better. I wanna do road course more

Soo it was a bearing in the slave cylinder that failed and its covered throught the power train. but they need to replace the clutch disc because there was a lot of fluid in there, and potentially could cause slipping, and they are waiting for an approval to get that replaced under warranty as well...

Thanks dude.....yes sir my Z is NA....and HP isn't reallly a huge factor in the autoX world...Just as Stephan says, it is all about your handling and the driver.

Yes Stephan your right about that LSD...it has helped me with the cornering a lot !
Why don't you sign up for the HPDE with the BMW group we are going to run with on April 28/29 ?

That is way more fun than the AutoX....and the only thing better than the HPDE's are TT's.

My car is down at the moment. Gettin a built longblock out Of Cali and upgrading fuel setup along with a 6spd swap so soon as the engine is in and tuned I'll be signing up. Keep reminding me so I can make an excuse to get out of the shop and have some fun
