BTW - I wouldn't bet on getting in side by side runs on the track at MIR. Unless things have changed they only ever let us run solo when the Supra guys used to rent the track...

I will not be there as my schedule has changed but you best hope Jason and family doesn't allow it or you might wish your car would have come with 16/16G and a driver instead.

Jamie, I don't know if you heard but the first R35 GTR went 9's this week (full interior). My friend just shipped his GTR out to AMS for the same treatment and a little more. Should be awesome.

Berk- Where are you? Here is your chance to see what that TT creation can do!
Yeah I did see that, I wonder if the car lost its streetability though now with all the mods?

I don't think it would. I will let you know when my friend gets his car back, I think he said 2 months since he is getting the car resprayed while the motor is out. We can all go grab lunch or hang out at a meet or something and talk cars.

I've got 3 questions;

1. Can you pay to play on that day?
2. Jamie are you going?
3. What time is everyone going to get there; 10 a.m.?

You can pay at the front gate, we all try to get there at 9:00 when the track is ready( good and sticky).

Mario I won't be able to make it as I am on vacation for spring break with my family at our house in Jupiter Florida. I will definately make the next rental, as I am hoping to see a good improvment on the 10.83 et with the extra 100hp on the rear wheels and I have also put in a new clutch also as I was having some slippage problems myself when I was last out. I am thinking the car is really going to put up some good numbers as it feels really strong, and much stronger than when I ran the 10.83.

This is correct. You can just give me the cash when you get there. Gates are supposed to open around 8 and track is supposed to be prepped by 9. They usually run a little late. I will try to show up early and speed the process along so we can get some good runs in early. If you need race gas from the pump they only accept cash.

This really sucks! I hate it Ahmad but I'm heading down to NC for the Easter holiday. I'm not going to be in town for this one. It looks like you guys are going to have a great day at the track. Text me with some numbers. I hate that I'm going to miss it.

Where was everyone? :-( Lots of GT-R, Mercedes, some BMW, race cars, Pro-Mod.... I thought this was a P-car get together but it was wide open. Lots of neat cars and whatnot but a boost leak killed my times. Dropped over 4mph 1st to second run and am boosting less than W/G level it looks like. Argh!

I arrived at about 12:30. You're right ... it looked like a GTR event : ) I did not run my 996tt ... just parked it near the lanes. I saw only one other p car -- a GT2 parked near a supra tt.

It is definitely not a strictly p car event. I like to get a nice eclectic group of cars togther for these. Sucks about the boost leak but I hope you had some fun.
