i'm taking my 4th gen out to PIR for the lotus club day! i'll be running it on a set of toyo R888's with the cutout open, and a fresh tune from wongs performance.
we will see if the $9000 bill from LG motorsports was really worth it!!!
the only concern i have is left is brakes. worst case, i'll be ordering 2010 camaro brembo's on monday!

Have fun! Did you get a full LG suspension treatment on it?!?!
What pads are you running? A good set of pads with a more aggressive and better heat range, will help to keep them from fading so badly. |

That is cool man! Do you have a camera that you can mount or anyone taking some footage alongside track?
Have a great time!

Open tracking a car is so much fun I have a hard time putting into words. When I terrorized Pacific Raceways I don't think you could've wiped that grin off may face for at least a week!
You gotta be careful about who you have video/take pictures for you. Dirty Steve stopped by the track and took just as many pictures of my instructors ass, as he did of me in the car! |
