nasa was who I started with at Sebring, they use their higher level drivers to instruct the newer drivers ( the experienced drivers get a rate cut for doing it) and you get to learn how to drive at speed safely(ish) which saves the track and clubs from higher insurance rates (I forget the exact numbers but IIRCC they announced an insurance cost of like $3500 for the last event weekend)

(now I just drive the 370z around Sebring in Forza :-( ...)

Ah, Starke, was in the state psychiatric hospital there for a while (as a case manager, not an 'inmate' (life lesson learned; you can't argue with crazy)
I didn't know they had a road course, they're semi-famous for the dirt rally school/course; hmm 199$, nice.... How many hours does the day run?

(Bluemax headlight restorer and then Bluemax sealer spray, rubbed by hand for cleaning the headlights; I said next time he came over I'd breakout the PC r/o polisher and polish his turd of a car, the 1/2" around the headlights became shiny with just the overlap of the edge cleaning)

Just got home from a nice spirited run down I-40 and back home on Old Route 66 about 25 miles of boosted fun. I feel for my cold country brothars and sistars as the temps here are perfect for fun. 60* is like adding NOS to the twins!!!

Just received my EBC slotted rotors and red stuff pads. Hopefully installing soon!

D.Stillwell · 11-12-2015, 01:29 PM

UpRev tuned. Made 304whp with just Stillen intake and exhaust.

Baseline was 289whp with just the mods, before the tune. So I figure the mods gained ~9whp with no tune since most stock Z's dyno ~280whp.
