The last track day, who is going?

Cedar Falls has its last race day this saturday, if I can get some tires I will head down for the day to get some shake down runs in. Who else is going?

I have some 555 DR's you could use on some Kosei K1 wheels, but the tires aren't mounted yet.

Re: The last track day, who is going?

I would need them fit on a 15x7.5" rim, unless your wheels are 4x114.4 by chance. I tried the car in front of the shop and when I shifted into 2nd it made full boost and put the car side ways and tried to kill me, so traction is a big issue, I would be starting at 26psi(500awhp) but I do not want to hit the wall, or do a few 360s.

Man, that bolt pattern sucks. Cedar Falls should be a lot stickier than the street though. Last time we were out there, they started prepping the track at 8am for racing at 11am.

Sounds like you aren't sleeping John this week, that car needs alot of work besides tires to be track ready.

Re: The last track day, who is going?

I am 100% sure I am not going, just wanted to see who else was heading down, I have no time or money to make the pos track ready, maybe next year if I still have the car.

Umm they were 17's and to small for the new setup?

I'll be going 15" tires next season hopefully.

Re: The last track day, who is going?

Porky's shootout sucked last year, I got a whole 3 runs in and I went straight to the back of the line after coming off the track. They let the stupid wheelie van have like 10 runs though.

MAP was up here late, I think the car should go good at the track, but the clutch/tire monster strikes again on the spray. It made good power on just boost though.
