    Totally agree, it definitely gives one confidence they are constantly looking for competition parts as well as testing what they sell. You don't often see many aftermarket companies out there racing with those of us who are Trackrats. Cool folks...

    Me Iikes , but then I raced Spec Miata for close to 10 years ------- intense, fun and very exact. Missed shifts, braking too early, missing your line and you get passed often. Thanks for posting and when did you start racing in these little buzz... (see full post)

    We will have a team heading out to Ponies in the Ozarks if anyone will be out there. This will be mainly our employees who participate in HPDE events and will be tracking their vehicles. Looking forward to seeing some of you out there!

    How cool is it to work for LMR - the company you work for will be involved in your HPDE event. Not a bad place to work.

    And since you served your Country with Honor and I seem to remember you are a USAA member, don't forget that you have the huge discount with USAA Perks on Goodyear rubber --- essentially 4 for the price of three. Goodyear USAA approved Dealer has... (see full post)

    I was tought to do a solid warm up lap or two to get heat into tires. Some seem to go hard right off the bat but yeah you end up with a lot of passes but then you are in the clear and i haven’t had this misfortune yet lol (see full post)

    Got bored waiting for people to get around to doing my machining for the front struts. Seriously hard to find someone to do some manual machining that isn't either inundated with work or who actually gets back to you about doing it even though...

    I'll own up to doing that also. Trailered the car to the track for the first time with the Mustang. Half a lap is not enough time to get some temp into Cup 2's. Looped it off track in the 2nd of 3 consecutive hairpins at low speed. Every photo...

    It's also a matter of the right pressures and suspension. If you are not taking good care of your tire pressures during a track day aka checking in/center/out temperatures and making sure your pressures are not rising to the moon by bleeding them...

    Again, not a treaded tire guy, but we ran the Goodyear supercar F1 at Daytona in a 12 hour race and they were as fast at the end, as the beginning
  • Gunslinger55
    Good to hear. And a set cost about half what the trafeos do. I’m gonna try themQuestion is tire rack hear cycle worth it? I did it on this last set of fronts and they look worse than my much older old ones but it could be other factors (see full post)

    I ended up with an X-Spec version caus there was one in Australia already, great smooth action but a pain going from 3rd to 2nd on track. Ended up putting a 3 inch extension on it and loved the difference. The springing in the MGW is quite firm...
