Title: Another Track day in the books
Post by: wildnphx on November 10, 2013, 11:18:57 PM

I had such an awesome time and I was giving the beast everything she had...  A few videos can be found at http://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9Z52kLAH5b2s86vrc34r3A (http://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9Z52kLAH5b2s86vrc34r3A)

Yes a few tar snakes but amazingly they never bothered me...  I lowered the tire pressure down to 35 psi on the PR3's and I was giving it everything she had...  According to one of the Track Day instructors... "Dude you are leaving black marks on the track coming out of the corners so hard"  I felt the rear squirming a little at times but nothing that was uncontrollable.  No chicken strips left that's for sure...  :)

Thanks for posting this.  I'm in Flagstaff and didn't even realize there was a track down there to do trackdays.  Is this place kind of new?  I'll come and check it out soon.  Mark
