Had a blast and will def go back!!! My instructor was really good - Rick Houck. Had a turbo Audi and he got around the track very quickly!
Thanks Chad. It takes time to learn Mid-Ohio - it's much more challenging than Putnam Park, for sure! Your lines look ok. Speed will come. Maybe we can run together in the spring.

I liked the lines Rick taught me. That video was a few cold laps so going a little slow and not hitting all the lines...

Def let me know your schedule next year! I plan on a couple of weekends!

They are JIC's. I don't think they are in business any more. I like them, though!

I have all that! Except big brakes! I think my winter project will be getting an old race car my company acquired up for DE track duty. Have to put brake lights on it and un-weld the seat and put in a new one. Guy who had it prior was tall and I am not! I have to tip-toe on the throttle!

fredpayne is infamous around these parts
2003 Boxster S Upgrade

I have added 18" Wheels, 295 on rear, 245 on front, GT3 seats, a lot of carbon on the inside, A GT2 Front end and a wing on back plus side skirts. The interior also has a Pioneer AVIC-Z100BT stereo and interior has been painted to math the Orient Red exterior. I personally think it looks pretty good, I know I'm not through yet, but getting there.

Agreed with everyone here.

You're done, until it starts again... Really the only way to stop, is to stop coming here and seeing the other modded cars.

The car looks great! Love the booster seat touch.

As the Sistine Chapel was a sickness to Mickey Angelo! It's really a reflection of how much enjoyment ou get out of your car and that's AWESOME!

Everyone gets a kick out of the booster seat! I don't think the general population realizes it has back seats!

My company acquired a sign/graphics shop... My car was a "test" car! lol
