I'll be bolting on every and all possible cheater parts in an effort to finally take the top step of the podium in my class. Who's with me?
just donate another pint of blood for rubber. Will likely bring fast and furious first two days then GT3 Cup on Sunday. It better not be another crazy hot weekend like the past two events ... I got no more fat reserve to burn off

I don't last long in heat unlike mooty ... even DRL's killer dogs were dying in the heat

here is a fun video of TH for those not familiar with the track - my friend Martin driving my fast and furious with corded front tires

of course not. that would be as lame as ALMS or F1.
it's all about who last longer...



stop that dirty mind. i was talking about who last longer on track. mikymu only does 1/2 session and 24chromium gets overheated by lap 3, DRL stays in his AC trailer all day... bunch of wimps.
That's why you need a FL native to show you how to handle the HEAT.

Gonna come up your way also. Steve Weiner owes me a few and rumor has it that ORP is a pretty good track.

Won't have a fun car then, but worth going out to TH in an ISF? Considering getting new MPSS for it and learning the track Playstation style.

Ah, hell yes! In fact, last time out... there was a dude in the open group (fastest drivers, no point by required, open passing anywhere on track) in a Fiat 500. Just be a heads up driver and keep out of the way of the faster cars, and your in!

My buddy is the one who drove the white IS last TH event. All Stock and he said it took forever for suspension to settle down before you can do any steering input. He got fed up and now he has coilover installed.

Your ISF will be better in stock form than IS250. Come and play.

The ultimate NorCal / PACNW tour is Laguna, TH, The Ridge, and ORP. You do that and I'll clear my calendar for it too.

Yes, although you might be let down by the car. Did a day at TH with my daily driver (gt3 in the shop) and it went into soft limiter after 3 laps, kinda spoiled the fun.

Back on track, Thill is awesome. Wish I could be there with you guys!

tell your friend, it's far cheaper to sell isf, eat the loss, buy GT3.
more fun
less frustration
more room service
everyone happy.
