It was much more fun than I thought it would have been. It wasn't much of a parade lap, since I got up above 70 a couple times.
    Your welcome
    I had a great time too,Two months ago I got new coil over shocks & rear shocks put in & it was a great opportunity to really test the car out to the max & it handled great.

    Hope you had a great time at MV12

    I did, I just regret that I didn't take more time off work to go to the entire thing. Saturday was a blast.

    It was a BLAST! Like I said earlier, I was having to get on the breaks a little too hard at times cause I was approaching some of the corners a wee bit fast for this tubby girl. My biggest issue was my tiny ass in the seat! I just may push up the timeframe for the racing seats I've been planning.. Always disliked these factory seats.

    A group outing would be AWESOME Paul, I am sooooo there! As always, my keys are all yours friend! Ride her hard, she can handle it and beg for more. My car too. LOL

    I'll check my air pressure next time (knew I'd forget..) and hopefully she'll take the harder corners better. I wasn't overly impressed with all the body roll. I guess it could have also been me sliding all over hell?

    We could all run up to Gingerman in Southhaven as well - 2.5 hour drive there. test and tune a couple of nights a week. its probably over now this season but next season would be great.

    Return to Autobahn

    I checked in with Autobahn CC for a return engagement and sad to say they close up the track for the year Nov. 1st. There is a full schedule for their members up to that date which means, like the Chicago Cubs and "da Bears", wait 'til next year.... The good news is we are welcome back anytime...They were impressed with our group, our Marauders and how we slogged those heavy behemoths around the track....reading thru all the comments, I think a good time was had by all....At the end of our conversation, I was told that the burnout on the entrance/exit road by our area was seen and not appreciated....

    I must have missed the burnout. Was it decent at least?
