Re: Track Time
Yeah, new to me car. If I believe my Harry's timer, my best lap was 1:48.44 with several in the 1:50 range. Previously my best lap was in the 1:52 range so I was pretty happy. This was my first time at LS with the R-S3's and along with non-stock brake pads I was going much deeper into the braking which was a lot of fun. That M3 in the photo was a blast to play with. The guy came over to talk after a great session.
The only issue I had was lockout, which is a bummer since jnathan68 said there were no shifting issues after the new trans was installed. It shifts incredibly well under 6500 so it looks like I'm in the market for a clutch.
The car has H&R race springs, Koni Yellows, M&M C/C's, BMR LCA's and brackets, and the SVE 18x10's with 285's. It's a little low and stiff for the street but was great on track.
On a side note, I bid and was out bid on my old car # 733. I bid $14k and last I saw it was over $15k. Oh well.

What kind of lap times were you guys turning? I had some good runs with Ron at Chuckwalla!
