The LSD will help tremendously at Streets of Willow. Your car should be fast there for sure. :tup:

Mike, did you customize your LSD clutch plate packing at all or did you leave it stock, i.e. maximum lock up?

Just an out of the box Carbonetic. :driving:

who's having a track day at laguna? i havnt been there in about 5 years.

i'm trying to decide b/t this sow event and button willow on the 21st with speedventures. but laguna seca would be funnest.

Sore subject: it actually looks like I'm going to have to bail on it due to work :mad:

It's paid for and everything, so if someone is up here in NorCal and wants to go, I might be able to swap over my registration. I registered for the Novice class because I haven't driven Laguna before, so you'd have to be happy in that group. I think the rest are full. It's a Trackmaster's event, so it should be pretty well run...

Bummer. If I lived up that way I'd hop on it in a minute. I've never been to Laguna either.

on the redline website, there is a listed of "registered racers". is this just a list of those who are competing or does "racers" mean ALL drivers? i want to find out how full it's going to be. 100 max is too much in my opinion.

Thats ALL drivers. No competition at this event. Just a track day for fun to wrap up the season :). The finals were back in November.

I doubt 100 cars will be showing up. Be lucky if 30 showed up. Slow sign-ups for sure and close to Christmas.......mas track time for us :tup::tup:


:tiphat:

very nice. it should be lots of fun. i'l be there!

Ok, I was off a bit :icon17: 43 are signed up :tup: Weather is going to be perfect all weekend :happydance:


:tiphat:

which car did you drive? i only saw one other z out there and it was mike's.

overall very fun event. does anyone know if redline will post the results? my best time of the day was 1:31.00 (sooo close to 1:30) on my ultra lap timer. temp was 82 degrees. eibach springs, hotchkis sways, spc front arms, and stock everything else.

there's still probably about 1-2 seconds to be had, i think, but i havnt quite figured out the best way through the chicane yet. turn 1 is also a bit unsettling if you dont tap the brakes before entering. on my miata, i used to go full through turn 1 and hard on the brakes before entering 2. but on this car, it's too fast if i stay on the gas and the rear gets all light and uneasy.

The car never made it there. When Robi put the OSD Giken in they didn't tell us the axle shafts were different. Robi lucked out and got some shafts from Fontana Nissan's rig there Friday and installed them today. We'll be out at Big Willow tomorrow for Industry Day and maybe Button Willow on Monday. I'm in Lancaster now.

Great times by the way! Sorry we couldn't hook up...

:tup:

You're car was the base model so that's why the shafts were wrong, they definitely should have asked you that when ordering. Oh well.

even with the track pack lsd you need a second "short shaft" the only one which is a direct replacement is a nismo plate style locker...so be warned...!
