Going to the track...

I'll most likely be going to the SCCA/PCA event this weekend at Spring Mountain. I'm just going to go on Sunday. Anyone else interested? I know John will be there in his 914. It's $200 ahead of time, or $225 the day of. Hey Mike - I'd like to get corner balanced before then - do you have time for me to come over this week? Here's more info: http://www.lvrscca.org/RR/index.htm

Mike, if you're going to corner balance your car, call Mike (Zrolimit) or Brian (SmittyZ33) and see if they can hook you up with the lifts. I'm more than likely heading out this Wednesday to Oregon for a funeral for one of our troop. I'll PM you with the info.

I will be at Cal Speedway this weekend for the Time Attack or else I would go.

Rob - Unfortunately my scales are at VRT this week so they can do my car. Sorry. We can scale you sometime after next weekend though.

I wouldn't lower it all the way, they you might get too much negative camber. I would just leave it where it is unless your car feels funny and un-balanced. Lower it to where the fenders are right at the top of the tire so there is no gap. That should be pretty good I would think.

Just a reminder, avoid speeding on your way out there. NHP is all over Blue Diamond right now and they are taking no prisoners.

Hope you got a brake upgrade for that stretch of road, too.

I reeealy like the new long version of the track. You gotta come out and try it.

There was only one 350Z out there for 1 day. It was a rental.!!! The guy and his GF were from Cali. He races a Spec Miata. They flew to Vegas and rented a red Z for the day, She drove in the green group, he drove in the yellow group.

Yeah the new extension is awesome! I wish I would have gone to this instead of the Time Attack at Cal Speedway this weekend. I would have had way more fun at SMMR.
