Hey thanks everyone. Yep, I took the day off and went to Thunderhill. What better place to spend your B-Day but at the track driving.
Damn the car is working well. Those new wheels and Yokohama slicks are not to be believed. And this was also the first time with the new Brembo front brakes and 14" rotors. What a great setup. I had a I am sure a couple people I gave a ride to will comment on their own.
I also took my wife out onto the track for the first time (this is a pic with her in the car). I think she is hooked now. She loved it and wants her own car to take out... What have I done?

Great pic Bob. Looks like you had a great b-day. Seems you may have to get another p-car to tinker with. I sometimes toy with the idea of finding an older SC for the girlfriend, and myself, to drive (kind of like the bowling ball Homer Simpson bought Marge). Glad you had a nice day.

What? You don't think 1000lber's are enough? A couple of things. First, there is little droop in the front end, and second I was tuning the Motons and added some more bump stiffness. It was running pretty flat later in the day. But it looks cool
