Okay then!!!!

HPR November 16 lapping day plan

lets get it set up!

SurfDog · 10-06-2013, 09:21 PM

Pending weather I'm thinking of turning some HPR laps this Friday, October 11.

I'll set up the tent at about 7am and would be happy to take any of you Denver guys along with me for some ride along laps. (just bring a helmet)

I plan to run morning only (8 to noon).

Here is the info thread again:
High plains raceway Open laps Sep27, Oct4

SurfDog · 10-11-2013, 04:26 PM

I just returned from HPR and had a great day. I ran with two guys with Facory 5 kit Cobras!!!! Super cool guys with amazing Cobra cars. Also there was a random (non the370z.com member) 370 guy named Kim out there. We all had a great 8-noon session. (kim is probably still out there turning and burning, he bought an all day pass)

I will post some track footage soon.

My only two tech comments Are:

1. I wore soo much pad of my front (HPR plus) brakes that my fluid level dropped in the brake reservoir, and I got ABS, VDC, and BRAKE light illumination right at the end of my day. I recommend bringing extra brake fluid to top off if you push your brakes as hard as I do (ie VERY HARD)

2. For the second track day in a row, I experienced "Fuel starvation" on turn 2 at half tank. (again right at the end of my day). Luckily I was able to straighten out and regain power. I added 5 gallons from a jug which brought me to 3/4 tank and no more problems after that. I definitely recommend topping off tank in morning and bringing at least 5 gallons extra gas for a morning session. Kim filled up at the track at 9 bucks a gallon which got REEEALY expensive, poor guy...

All and all another GREAT day at HPR! Stay tuned for some track video of me chasing around the kit cobras over the next couple days. (I have to extract from the track app and upload to YouTube over my slow internet Which will take some time... maybe by Sunday!)

SurfDog · 10-12-2013, 11:13 PM

Okay it should work now.. try:
HPR 2 CLIPS - YouTube

enjoy!

Shadezz · 10-14-2013, 08:33 AM

Great video buddy!!! I sure missed out....looks like the mount did much better this time too. That puff of smoke was scary, but his pass was amazing...great cars. Dude your avatar on YouTube is very funny! Maybe let's plan another track day later this month and a group meet again. Before we know it...the snow will be falling and our days will be limited.

SurfDog · 10-14-2013, 08:46 PM

I'm in! ... but my next day off which coincides with HPR open lapping day (I checked HPR callendar) is November 16th. (I'm working next two Fridays, and will be surfing in Hawaii Nov 10th)

Chuy · 10-15-2013, 09:13 AM

I'm in, since I finally got a day when I'm out of the Army! Hopefully the furlows will be done really soon tired of my allowance being short.

Shadezz · 10-15-2013, 09:58 AM

Okay!!! Let's plan then! Please let there by sunshine that day....

SurfDog · 10-17-2013, 03:48 PM

If anyone is interested in the Nov. 10 HPR open lapping day I will be there - can't make the 16th. Would be cool to run with other 370's but I can seem to get free time when you guys meet up.

Also It has a twin turbo on it and hes willing to let it go for $23500! sounds too good to be true so I am will to pay someone well for time if they would go out and check out the car for me since im in sc.
