well last weekend i had my first HPDE. it was a great experience and i cant wait to go again. this was at Summit Point raceway in WV. i met a lot of cool people and learned a lot that weekend. the car definitley felt very fast. i took corners harder and faster than i thought it could only real complaint i had was the brakes. they started to fade after a few laps. definitely gonna get some better pads for the next event.
basic breakdown of my setup
engine:
GSR motor
.25 OS jdm itr pistons
gsr head with headwork
s2s2 cams
itr IM
put down about 215 whp last september
susp.:
tokico illumina shocks
GC coilovers (500F/400R)
GC tophats
susp. tech. 22mm sway bar
ES master kit including TA bushings
brakes:
10.2" rotors
ITR calipers
Hawk HPS pads
valvoline synpower dot4+ fluid (500*F)
and i weighed the car in at 2200 lbs with me in it with 3/4 tank. its a 91 si and ive stripped it down pretty well. everything in the interior is gone except the dash and seats. plus i ripped out the sunroof and put in a CF plug. gave me near 2" of extra headroom while dropping like 25lbs. oh yea, the rear wiper was removed as well.
some pics from the weekend, ill have some more once i get them off my gf's camera. big thanks to the guy who took these pics.
as you can see the car looks pretty terrible but it performs great! i had a blast, and i think they only bad thing all weekend was getting stung by a freaking bee, lol.
