Another track day today, it was a blast at least when it finally dryed up! ��


HHammerly 08-27-2016 10:14 PM

Here is some runing in the rain

Here is another video from last weekend, this was the most fun session on a drying track on 205 Toyo R1R's, everyone was tiptoeing around trying to figure out how much grip the next corner would have.

Somehow I'm just noticing this thread just now. Loving this build and how much fun you're having with it. I also have to steal the design for that track trailer.

HHammerly 09-20-2016 07:57 AM

Got the car hard top painted last month exidias going on the car tomorrow and an aligment next week, cannot wait for the track days to get here

HHammerly 02-24-2017 06:43 PM

New shocks are on the car, put on fresh rear uprights and while doing that found some of the rear a arm bushings that need replacement, unfortunately they are on back order so i will not be able to get the aligment and corner weiging done next week.
the car rides nicer on full soft shock settings 900/500 springs than it did on hard-s shocks with 600/350

Looks good! Willing to part with the Hard-S shocks?

zellers88 02-24-2017 07:44 PM

Looking good Harold! Are you planning on going to the April 1st track day?

HHammerly 02-24-2017 07:54 PM

Have not signed up yet but yea, i will be there on Sunday, are you going?

zellers88 02-24-2017 08:05 PM

Yup, only Saturday though. Didn't want to pay for both days Incase wringing out the new setup went badly. Sounds like I may have to swing by over there on Sunday though if you'll be there.

HHammerly 02-24-2017 08:10 PM

i will try to stop by on Saturday

zellers88 02-24-2017 08:30 PM

Awesome. Sticking with the Novice group for this one but will probably bump up to Intermediate the next time.
