I'm gonna do some hpde's next year. Did brake lines and all fluids a couple weeks ago. Next up is an oil cooler and adjustable sways. Probably gonna visit VIR, Summit Point and New Jersey Motorsports Park next year. I had the RX8 at all three before.

NJMP is on my list for next year. But back to my home track of Summit more than likely. I want at least 2 events, maybe 3.

Do you drive with NASA of another organization? I've been with NASA for a few years and they seem good. I was thinking of joining another organization so I will have more opportunities to drive. It would make it easier to schedule.

say whaaaa...I love my Z. Just ordered an Ark exhaust for it. Hopefully get it in a week or so. After that I have to finally get the windows tinted.

I must say, driving it when its colder than 50 degrees is not fun at all.

I go with TrackDaze usually. Haven't been out with NASA.

Would you recommend Trackdaze? I was thinking of doing a road course sometime next year.

NJMP looks like an interesting track. I went their for the first time in July for their Go-karts, where a good friend of mine ran into 2 gokarts during the warm-up lap. Wish I had a go-pro for that crash.

I highly recommend Trackdaze events! They are generally safe and are have good instructors that can help you get the most out of your car.

If you have not done it already, I would recommend an oil cooler for the track and keep your fuel tank fairly full throughout the event to avoid the fuel starvation issues you can have with the Z. The first time it happened to me, I almost had a Corvette "enema" when I bogged down.

How's that new TrailHawk treating you? Bet that thing will be a blast when the snow hits

With how I pull on some cars out there, I can totally see this happening - first time it happened in my Z was terrifying.

Seriously, Trailhawk ... how is that going? Had it in the back country yet? I bought my 4WD truck with the idea of lots of backcountry for photography. Turns out, I could have made do with 2WD with limited slip around here. Not out west though.
