I was just given my event schedule for track driving this year with cost. I am fine with the price. Laguna Seca, Thunderhill, Button Willow, Sears Point.

March 30th (Saturday – 105db) – LS ($279)

April or May (working on a date) – BW ($189)

June 3rd (Monday – 92db) – LS ($239)

Sept. 22nd (Sunday) – SP ($229)

Oct. 21st (Monday) – TH ($169)

Nov. 24th (Sunday) – SP ($279)

I just wished for another Laguna Seca, but I am happy as a clam. the club won't accept any 90db LS days.

I just watched and listened to my car drive off, which is rare. I have my car worked on by others while I work and have the car returned by closing time. Boy Howdy does it sound nice.

I am having the track "squeel and sqeek" pads removed till March and Laguna Seca. We are marking them for reinstall.

Otherwise the car seems pretty much identical (except for not using Potenzas anymore...Yokohama I think.)

did they put in an oil cooler yet???

as a matter of fact they did start putting oil coolers in for MY 2012 and up, but it is not really good for track use as it is an water cooled solution but stands up well to spirited driving from what i hear.

In preparation for a nice, long day getting my hands dirty with the Z, I purchased a bunch of lube

Do tell what did you decide? I like the one I posted because its not so much in your face and once I get the amuse rear on that will be the only badge on the car.
