Hello and I hope everyone is well. I finally saved enough and got the forged wheels that I wanted and have these for someone to get started on track days. I hope these help someone get some track time.

***Complete 996 NB track biased wheel and tire set-up, Completely free***
Midwest Alert, Pick Up in Michigan (will drive about 2 hours from Ann Arbor), details as follows:
Availability timing: Now, but probably early July is when my schedule really opens up
Details: Pictures and actual sizes to come, hopefully next weekend
Usage: I have used these wheels, lug bolts and spacer set-up for about 4 years, absolutely no concerns
Wheels: OZ Alleggerita 18" (exact sizes and offsets to come, but this set-up fits a 996 NB perfectly), condition is very good (small imperfections from 4 years of track usage)
Spacers: Front and Rear Provided (ECS tuning)
Lug Bolts: Titanium extended bolts included, full set (Acer Racing)
Tires: Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 (tread wear about 80% or more remaining, fresh date codes, nothing to worry about)
Mounted Tire Details: Rr are the 180TW version (discontinued), Fr are the 240TW version (new)==>same tread pattern and performance (in my opinion)
Extra Tires: Fr 2 tires brand new 180TW version (discontinued)
Rough Investment: Wheels (800), Spacers (80), Lug bolts (250), Tires (1800)
Xposted in the 996 Forum...First to claim will be based on time stamp

Feel free to ask any questions, I will be traveling and will respond as soon as possible.

Default Private Weekday Trackday - Waterford Hills 8/11/22

Hello neighbors!
I am a new member here but a long time lurker in the B-car forums. I try to arrange a private trackday at Waterford Hills once a year, this year is going to be Aug 11th (Thursday). These are weekday rentals there and a max of 20 cars are allowed. (Current count is 10.)
Details:
Gate open at 9:00am
On track noon - 4:00pm
The track's insurance company says no more than 10 cars on the track at a time with no limit on the number of cars in total.

3 Run groups for 1st 2 hours and then open lapping till 4 pm
Cost will depend on number of drivers signing up. Expect it to be between $150-$200.
PM me if you are interested.

Thanks,
S

Hi ttt123, I just picked up a 2005 Boxster base. Looking to make champagne enhancements on a beer budget. Would any of your parts fit? I'm by 14 and Woodward, Royal Oak/Birmingham/Troy area.

Thanks!
