Default June 1-2 @ The Ridge

Decided to take the Z out for a little time out at the track with NASA. Had a great time and I gotta say that I never believed the car would perform so well. Here are a few shots from the weekend. Got a few GoPro videos that I will throw on youtube later. Enjoy and hope to see some folks out at the next round.

Making plans right now for PIR in July. Not 100% sure if I will be there but I am sure trying to make it work.

I'll be there on Sunday, can't do both days. Any idea what kind of lap times you were running?

By day two I was around 2:10 to 2:13 lap times at The Ridge with my fastest lap being a 2:06. Had the wife taking those times from the pit wall as I forgot to take my lap timer to the track.

Ordered up new tires last night in preps for PIR. Planning to do both days so I will see ya there on Sunday and try to save you a nice spot to setup nearby.

You don't have to worry about saving me a spot, I'll be coming down with a couple of other cars, but thanks.


What tires did you pick up?

Got a full set of Bridgestone Potenza S-04 Pole Positions. I was running a different blend of Potenza on the car already and they did great at the track, plus tirerack was running a special on the S-04s.
