only one driver. he has to clear it with us first if he wants several drivers.
we need medical and paperwork for all drivers and if instructors are needed thats another issue

I think I may try to get 928 Motorsports out here with the Porsche 928 once West Bend Dyno tuning finishes up the tune. Carl has been looking for more seat time then just PCA events anyways, especiially now that the car is over 700whp with a massive boost leak.

Slow laps in the TA. She was heat soaking and getting warm pretty bad. Really looking at going back to all motor again or selling the car and getting a road course vette.

Yup that's MAC. I have talked to him a bit and followed his build. Definitely helps give me a little motivation. Last I heard it dyno'd 246whp, but I know that is pretty low so maybe (hopefully) he got it all sorted out.

Yea those S1s are so light they make my ~1900lb elise look fat. I want to say they weight around 1600-1700 with the K-series in there.

BTW was MAC on track with it?

Flicktitty
06-17-2011, 01:11 PM
yeah he had it out in 1 or 2 sessions on monday, car sounded pretty good. i think he said it made 260 or 270ish. i couldnt remember i thought that was low compared to what yours did.

5 25 minute sessions per day. yes u get a lot of laps. if you rotors are ok put on hawk pads and new fluid.

01-25-2012, 11:30 PM
Yea your stock brakes will not handle it. As Joe said change pads and flush fluid.

I'll try to make it out for this one!

lilws6
01-25-2012, 11:54 PM
hmm rear rotors are new fronts seem to not shake last time i drove it. we shall see if i get some spare cash after my cam for some hawk pads. And i should probably flush the fluid any way.

You have to be out there this year. Having a year like last year is not acceptable.

Donny if you want to find out what it is like come up to an event in the spring with me.

You're telling me!

As an aside this event is absolutely on the short list, so by "try" you can consider it a done deal (provided the car is in one piece). The fact that it is close (RA) and a weekday is perfect for me.
