Perfect day indeed. It was cool but sunny. I spent half the day trying to get the car to grip though >_>. It was a little upsetting, I couldn't plant the rear coming out of corners. I might need to work on my suspension setup. When I was following Sasha for those 2 laps, I realized how a car should sit coming out of a corner. I would follow his line exactly and he would be planted powering out of a corner while I was going sideways on the same line.

i think im going to skip it, i'm just to busy and trying to get money together for other projects.
just a heads up thu right now at Canadian tire they have a impact drill that plugs in to your cars lighter socket for $35 bucks! which is so much cheaper than the 279 dollar cordless impact iv been eying up. swapping around tires with an impact is so much easier cuts the time in half.

^lol....I would say so...they are damn good! I haven't done the long track before so my lines def weren't on. Looked like a lot of the guys run ra...so they were going pretty well. Would have been good if you could have made it out. Wasn't getting passed much at all lol.
But man the NSX is FAST!

2nd time damn, cause you are going to fast lol. That sucks! Do you fix it yourself? NP glad it worked. It's at mazdamark's right now getting looked at. But from some others that have had the same kind of problem, under the same kind of situation (track), looks like it could be the front seal on the eccentric shaft and or the OMP copper gasket. Waiting to hear. Thanks for taking a look!
