Evo X upgrades

That's awesome. Car looks good. Your wing is bigger than his.

There was a black E30 track car with a pretty impressive wing. It was flat and wide, whereas my APR has a curved design. A good driver/fast car.

There was a red Evo 8, the STi next to me, and at least one GTR. The 8 was moving pretty good, obviously cammed. The gentleman introduced himself as Peter and was there to show his teen son how to drive it. Didn't really get a chance to chat with him...hung out with a couple Porsche owners most of the day.

Awesome man! Maybe you could look into a small pop-up tent (with some good weights on it) that you could put up over your parking spot. I always feel more comfortable leaving a pile of stuff like that under a tent, looks more established and people are less likely to just walk up and rummage. Plus, gives you(or your car) a break from the sun if need be.

need to learn heel-toe asap.]

Hopefully your pedals are set up well for it. It appears to be impossible with the stock pedal configuration in my car. The brake pedal is much further ahead of the gas pedal. I talked to a few other local viper guys who go to the track and they have had issues trying it as well on a GTS. I haven't practiced it or tried to apply it at the track. So far, my gear box has held up.

I would be more worried about the tranny than the motor.

Jesse told me yesterday that my intake was being polished and would be ready today. Their bead rollers came in this morning so they decided to use them on my intake...it didn't go so well. Would have been nice if I'd known that before driving over.

Situation normal.

You have some crazy luck man.

How long until they get another one done up for ya?

They are going to cut a piece of it off and weld on another one. Jesse was working on it when I came in. I assume it is going to suffer cosmetically but maybe he has some mad skillz. I told Mike I'd come by on Friday to pick it up.

I still love my Evo despite all of this (it's a fucking blast on the road course) but I'm leaning toward a Porsche next time. Buy something that I can rock stock.

Not exciting, but a video that starts with Peter's car, then the Boxster owner that I spent much of the day talking to (Oster?), the nice BMW with big wing, and I think the last car was Todd's.
