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.

Nope, these are 16's and on 5 bolt wheels.

Re: The last track day, who is going?
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.

Re: The last track day, who is going?
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.

Re: The last track day, who is going?
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.
