tell ya what, lets relax and enjoy this weekend and next time I come up to Mid Ohio we can mount the serious rubber and do it in a controlled environment. I'll even be the guy to concede in the interest of setting a good example

I didn't know a Z could produce an obnoxious exhaust sound

I like Mid Ohio, but unfortunately I'm pretty sure I'll be back in Austria at the end of June

I won't be on Street tires cause I haven't bought street tires in YEARS, but the AO48s I'll be on dun.... heat cycled out, worse than street tires.

The exhaust competition is people's choice.

You guys should come to Mid-Ohio 5/21 just after ZdayZ. :P I'm stopping on my way back north... It's a great club and last I looked there were only 25 cars signed up. If that number doesn't go up a lot it'll be 2 groups cycling 30 minute sessions all day for $250. I love 3 ***** Racing. I posted on the 370z forum and one of the Grand Am guys is considering coming for a shakedown on the freshly rebuilt car.

well I would except that I have a 14 hour race at daytona on 5/27 and promptly after that head back to Austria. If I don't give Michelle some time between now and then she wont be around when i get back from Austria. she only gets to see me about 25% of the time anyway. too many more races/track days wouldn't be good. not at least until I get a job where I am home more

That said I'm actively looking for a new employer. I'm tired of being a piece of road meat. last year I traveled ~85% and this year looks to be about the same. 12 years experience as EE, before that, 9 years working on diesel engines and such. Looking for less than 25% travel and based in Charlotte, NC

yeah raining is just drinking weather for me. There are only two things that can happen while racing in the rain, and they are both expensive. My NA cars oversteers so much in the dry it dam sure don't need the help from rain. I hard park in the rain, unless it is a chump car race

Sig I may take you up on that depending on my flight schedule. Can I register on-site?

For everyone else I have a convoy thread set up in events and here is an E85 event map.

You probably will be able to. You should call Ken @ (248)-622-6939 or email him boracing@comcast.net just to make sure.

You've obviously never heard my car. Ryan bought earplugs for him and Sammy just in case they ended up behind me again on the skyway. lol
