Default Takeda Enterprises Mission Track Day Sept. 29th

OK, so this will be my last track day of the season (didn't I say that 2 events ago?) Anyway there are a few more spots left so let's get in some track time!!!!!!!!!!!! Only $220.00 I'm already registered so I hope to see some familiar faces there.

That's because I haven't tracked my Z at all this year Sold my 17's and track tires and picked up a Corolla GTS, so I've been driving that all season. There are definitley give and takes, and the Z is infinitely faster especially on bigger tracks like Infineon and Thunderhill, but the Corolla is well suited to Mission. I do feel the lack of torque and hp on the front straight but it's still very fun in the corners. Plus it's fun catching bigger displacement cars with a monsterous 113 hp (at the crank)

Car is still mostly stock aside from some necessities but I'm building it up to to handle r-compounds next season. Should be a lot faster at that point. I took a year layoff from tracking cars but drove with: PDC, UBCSCC, and Inside Line this season. I'm forgetting one other. Liked Inside Line the most as we had a lot of track time and we had 2 experienced groups broken up by hp which is nice when you are driving a Corolla. Plus a co-worker of mine is the guy who organizes the Inside Line days.

See you there, should be a fun day!

Lol - got to pick up a cheap project car Alex. Something that you won't sweat going off track with. Went off track at T'hill when my Z was relatively fresh and new. Sucks hearing rocks and debris hitting the entire front end and underside. Not a good feeling when it pulls double duty as a street car. That's the main reason I wanted something else for the track - to keep my street cars clean
