BY THE WAY, I BEAT CAVEMANS FIRST TIME OF AROUND 80 SECONDS WITH MY FIRST TIME OF 77! lmao
my first run i was being very careful learning the car better, caveman wouldve had a great first run but missed a turn and had to back up pretty far because of it (had to bro lol)

No worries about the pics...I got tons of in car video with my iPhone and my a few pics of the cars but not much. I'll post them up soon.
BTW...The Rx8 girl driver was bad ***! I honestly forgot her name (# 333) but she was a great teacher and she helped me shave off an additional 2 seconds off my time. ALSO!!! I let her drive my car...She ran a 60.2 with my street tires which means I am about 2 seconds off her time in my own car. Ofcourse she would have done better if she knew my car/setup but that was a slight ego boost. Her Rx8 ran a 57.xxx.

at least i didnt take out the entire finish line at the end of my run like that black 5.0 mustang did when he spun out! and i made a huge improvement over the course of the day. you gotta give me that.

yes three of my six were, but thats because i kept missing that damn one cone at the very end of the second slalom so it counted as a off course

Chris he's talking about me. You let me drive your car, worked on mine but didn't even know my name, now that's funny! Don't worry I forgive you. I'll be pulling the ESS this week to clean it up... thank you guys again for the suggestion.

Best Official Time - With Instructor (65.642)
Best clean fun run (63.2xx Thanks Teddie you ROCK! )
Teddie trying to break my car! (She got a 60.xxx time)
I needed to know how much I was holding back my car.
So it would seem I'm costing me at least 2 to 3 seconds.

Final Fun Run and best time of the day (62.0xx) with errors.
I did miss a cone in this session which would have only affected the time by 0.2 ish.

She co-drove my Spyder in different occasions, she's fast and her latest RX8's STX set up is amazing.

Well I'm sure after that day you will never forget her name. Teddy happens to be one of the top fastest Autocross female driver in the country and also the course designer for the SCCA Florida Region Solo Program and ER also.

Had she went out one more time in my car I am sure she will knock off even more time and make me look extra slow...LMAO!!!
Teddy...I have decided I would like to make you my competition...this is a compliment! My only issue is the rules for STX. I remember you mentioned the wheel width in STX cannot be larger than 9 inches which ruines my hopes to race against you. So I need help choosing a class based on my mods. I'll be doing some reading on the rules but if any of the guru's (Teddy, Andres) can help me out I would appreicate it.
Rims: 18 x 10 inch wide
Brakes: Racing Brake (stock size...front only) 2pc rotor, Hawk HPS pads
Suspension: Tein H-Techs (1.7 inch drop), Koni Yellows (Damp. Adjustible)
Exhaust: BHR midpipe, Greddy exhaust
Intake: AEM
Tune: Cobb AP
Ignition: BHR Coils and MSD wires
Drivetrain: ACT clutch and flywheel

10" wide wheels, clutch, flywheel and no cat puts you in BSP.
Rear seat delete puts you in SM.
If I were you, I'd put the rear seats back in and run BSP. To be STX legal would take too much demodding. The only downside is that STX has a much more favorable index than BSP if you care about PAX (and Street Modified index is even worse since it allows race tires AND F/I).
Andres - the next time I get asked for a job reference, you'll be the first one on my list. =D

'04 Mazda RX-8
I can't wait to get back on the track at Sebring!!!! When I went last year I had a blast except I had my old engine with stock clutch and crap wheels and tires. I was hoping to have my track wheels and tires with coil overs and frame braces by my next time at Sebring, but what I have will just have to do......

I'll stay in BSP but I hope upgraded water pumps and thermostats are allowed! LMAO! (face palm myself)
PAX?
What about my job reference...I said nice things too! Like wanting to kick your *** on the track...
If you ever complete that thing your going to sell it! LMAO! That's what you crazy PR's do when you make insane power and finish projects. You find another one to spend 100k on!
