weather permitting (hopefully no snow!!)I will be participating in the Hooked On Driving (3/29) track day at Autobahn CC. BMW Club of America will also be there so should be fun playing with the M3s. Anyone else in let me know.

I will try to get to this event as Road America is my favorite track. I have driven several of my 1970 Bosses there before selling one and putting in a fresh motor in the other. New motor has no time other than the dyno runs. If you guys with the new ones run past me I just may have to bring the '13 LS up there to at least keep you in my sights. Not going to mod out the '13. I was following my son in his 911 C4 with my '03 Cobra when he went into the kink and decided to push one of the concrete barriers a bit out of line. No injury, but the 911 was toast. RA is a great track, fast and smooth once you get your corner entry points right. See you in a couple of months!

Let's just hope for good weather. I'm off to season my new rotors hoping for a better outcome than my second trip out there. Also going with Drew's suggestion on PFC01s to hopefully mitigate my penchant for destroying rotors.LS110 said:

Glad to hear the reconstruction is going well. Bummer that you will not be there as I was looking forward to meeting you, and it sounds like you will be missing out on Mama T's kabobs 8)

Gary - I was reading the other post that is discussing tire pressures. Curious what you are planning to run cold at RA and if you have different settings right or left, front or rear?? Typically at BIR I am running 1.5 higher on my left side given all the right hand turns and was planning to start cold at 26 & 27.5. RA looks predominately right turns as well.

I will probably start at 26 lf 26.5 rf 27 lr and 27.5 rr shooting for 32-34 hot.

Thanks for that info Gary!! I am going to set-up my tires tomorrow.
FYI - Going without the Goat Piss this round just in case that was the cause of the blow outs. My nerves can't handle a 3rd blow out in three track days.

You must be really excited to pack up this early. Have fun! How many sets of front brake pads do you have with you?

Looking good 8)
Your making me envious of that trailer again. Nice that you can park it there days in advance and know it is protected.

Well just had plenty of time today and since we're leaving early Thursday morning I figured I should get some work in this week.NFSBOSS said:
I think I have something like 4 and a half sets of front pads and no less than 3 backup sets of used rotors TMO Supporting Vendors
