what about drivers ed... (do u need "safe driving" class or something of the sort) If you've never been on track it would be advisable to take a novice class so they can at least teach you the flags and how to handle yourself while on the course. The main thing you learn is to be safe so you won't ...

Had a nice little leak going under the valve cover. While I was replacing the gasket I decided to paint the valve cover.

Trackdays

Ok, so I am a major track whore and want to convert other people into being tarmac junkies too. It's the reason we mod our cars with all the fancy suspension and power producing components. Don't let it go to waste and lets use it for its intended purpose. I'll try to update this every month w/new t...

This was a good time. Hardly anyone there. Lots of open space and no traffic.

I've been searching hard and found that pikes peak acura does alignment and CB. Not sure what they charge but I'm guessing $250ish which was the going rate when I left socal.

If you could find a place around here that corner balances as well as do sport alignments that would be awesome. I had a corner balance (with me in it) on my last car when I lived in Socal and it was a night and day difference. I have yet to find a place in Colorado that performs this service.

I've been to two Sevenstocks. The one at Mazda HQ was so-so. The magazines made it look more extravagant than it actually was. The plus though is that you'll be in Socal and there's lots to eat and see. The one at the track was better because you get to see and run against them (each other). Edit: T...

G-man - thanks! THe person i bought this car from pretty much threw the whole FM catalog at it already. I've been tracking cars since 02. I've mainly driven AWD (but used to own an FC) so it will be interesting getting back behind the wheel of a RWD again at the track. Video recorder used is the Har...
