Wet Skid Pad & Roundy Round
Glad we got those out the way its about to be road course time!
Wet Skid Pad
580whp Supra's with 295 front tires and wet skid pads just dont mix to well. Leh and I disconnected the front and rear sways and softend the shocks up to try and get her to roll a little more.... well it worked ok.... we have no idea how we did as the announcer was too busy trying to figure out how he had heard the name Leh Keen before to announce our time or G's... we will have to check the results when they get posted on the one lap site. Ussually an awd or fwd take that event anyways.
Roundy Round
Well i screwed up and forgot the wedge and bump rubbers at the shop so we couldnt slap the Ricky Bobby shake and bake setup on the supra... Leh looked like he was having a little fun out there even with a fuel starvation issue popping up on the 100 yard straight...with a little less than a half tank in the car the slosh was just too much. no biggy though we are going to 3/4s for the road course stuff and shouldnt have anymore issues with that.
Leh was on track with Luke in the TopSpeed STi/rota thingy and actually managed a little faster than luke even with the fuel starvation. Luke's gearing was wrong for the roundy round he tried 3rd and hit the rev limiter and tried 4th and the car bogged.
We are on our way to our first road course event at autobahn country club south of Chicago. We will post up some pics as soon as we get there and stop bouncing in traffic. its about time to show these one lap guys just what the supra and leh have instore for them
