The Firm isn't a real track. And it's got some serious safety issues.
Sebring is $200 a day with NASA. $300 a day with PDG, but you get more track time. I'm running with PDG at Sebring on the 12th. |
I need to make it out to sebring. Hard to justify so much $ but i guess its not an every week thing.
There is an FCRC on the 12th should you be interested in seeing how you stack up to the ole NA 1.6 NA :) |

I'll be at Sebring on the 12th.
It used to be $400 for two days at Sebring and $200ish for one. It must have gone up recently. They changed the rules last year that beginners couldn't do a single day. I didn't wee a single day option for anyone now. Performance Driving Group is who I am with on the 12th. I don't pay for track days on the days I instruct, so the cost varies for me. |

You vastly underestimate how much it will take to turbo your car and not have it explode.
Besides rule #1 with any automotive project is that it will take longer and be more expensive than you originally plan no matter what. |

So they say the 1.6 vlsd barely handles stock power?

There was a vid of me smoking an 03 cobra from dig, but was asked to take down

Zoom Zoom
270 whp for 60+ autox runs (all with drag launch) and still alive. I think the 1.6 vlsd is pretty capable or I have a magic diff in my casing. https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...cf5ec1724c.jpg |
Too much roll i'm thinking. 700/400 springs needed

My friend's stock diff died when he left a stoplight going slightly uphill.
My old car had a stock diff for 180k+ miles supercharged, turbocharged and autocrossed for years. Sometimes you get lucky, but that doesn't mean you get to be a snide smart ass. |

Maybe I should have said it differently but I don't think it came off as intended.
Brain is right though, the vlsd maybe survives or w/e, but it doesn't perform like a Torsen. |
