    Looks like some track debris made a lap or two. You might pull the pad to see if anything is stuck to them, but I think other than that....merely a flesh wound

    Hi, I figured out that I own Scott's 2011 s197 RTR that was sold at the Mecum action back in 2012. Would love to know if he has any knowledge on the dealer installed RTR package? I am documenting this rtr for the history books and am getting it... (see full post)

    Your rear bar has way more clearance then mine did even after I spaced mine rearward. Drop link angle also is way better. Just a future note, if you add significant rear camber and an 11 rear wheel you may have to grind the aluminium rear top... (see full post)

    Guys,Looking for an 18x10 with 285 or 19x10 with 285/295 setup. What's a good budget wheel and tire combo for the street? I've been looking at wheels this morning and didn't really see what I was looking for. Years ago I had some SVE Drifts... (see full post)

    My sentiment - until you're four-wheel drifting everywhere, you don't need aero. Like many, I put aero on before I needed it - didn't help me get much faster. Getting in a Miata and on a driving sim did that. Aero makes it harder to find the...

    The GC hybrid coil over set with GT350 Stock DSC and dampers shaved 3 seconds off my time. I was on FP springs and different aero before I installed the GC set up.I would not use a DSC controller with that set up unless you want to program it...
