Agreed. I was just there last Thurs and did the tour with a car dealer friend of mine. Being car guys, we couldn't stand to miss it and, of course, had to bs our way through without paying the cover charge :) They had a spider in there for an engine change at 14k miles. My buddy asked why/how...

Me too :thumbsup

What a great track. I just got back from racing CMC at a NASA event there and would have to say it's my new favorite track in the USA. Anyone even remotely considering this event should do it IMHO. The GT would be awesome at VIR.

What fun! The Mosler and Saleen cars. Now Saleen is gone again and some highly leveraged fools will certainly ruin the operation while dragging the name thru the dirt. Not sure bout it, but I bet that's what happens. Anyway, a guy brought a Saleen race car circa 1992 to the track at VIR last...

Wow Jeff, nice write up. Good to see you're making use of the IL winter too. Interesting to hear your report on the cat delete pipes - I just picked up a set of those. How did that installation go for you?

I wouldn't worry about cleaning the holes. They aren't good for anything anyway. Just trying to save you some time . . .

you might find that getting them really hot might get things back to normal. Rotors don't usually warp from track use but sometimes get an uneven transfer film layer or whatever. You get the shakes. But it can go away. Last time I was at Road America (not in GT) I swapped pads and had some...

What's the world coming to? As an Illinois kid, I seem to remember cruising around there on a trip with my father. I carried my instatic camera looking at old WWII airplanes about 30 yrs ago. I ate lunch at Flo's last about 5 years ago. Another legendary airport greasy spoon of my childhood...

Oh boy, I didn't think you take me up on it but that is going to be great! I didn't know I could be so excited about some chunks of polished aluminum. :biggrin Thanks!!

Shadowman, The only improvement I could suggest would be a heritage scheme with that paint . . .

none, I suspect, unless you're quite a few hot laps into a 24 hour race. They DO look cool though.

I just noticed this post. It sure looks like corrosion, and if it's magnesium, you're basically screwed. I fought corrosion like this on airplanes, and, only with a very careful application of a chromic acid solution followed by an abracadabra might you get a reprieve from pre-existing...

Wow - looks like a great day. Thanks for the pics!

Excellent!

Awesome! If I commit early on these, send money to the moderator for a subscription to the site, and promise a case of beer can I get some of the shoulder harness mounts as well? :biggrin

How cool! If there's any way to jump on the bandwagon, I'm in. Bruce

Sounds like a great project - a less expensive track car that won't hurt your feelings when it gets a ding. With sticky tires, the stock GT brakes, suspension, and engine (w/minor mods) are enough to go faster than virtually anything found at any local track day, especially if you can drive it...

pm sent on the rest of the stuff

I'm sure you guys are going to have great time. It's a very generous offer, abolfaz. I look forward to hearing a report . . . and to meeting some of you guys one of these days!
