    Track day question?

    What a bunch of f'ing crap! If it's too noisy, don't build there or don't live there. It's like these morons around here who buy a house next to the airport and then bitch about the noise. Duh!!!!!!

    Direct from SRT: Revised 2010+ Transmission Prototypes!

    That's correct. I had the stock .74 5th gear when I ran the mile. Would love to have been able to see what a .80 5th gear would have done.

    Vipers looking for revenge at The Ring Today!!!

    If the Radical is a production car then so is the ACR-X and the Competition Coupe. Wonder what a Comp Coupe could do at the ring?

    What does the 60 ft time mean?

    If you can't bang the second gear shift without wheel hop or slippage, you're not going to get a good time. Equally as important as 60' in my opinion.

    Video link for the 'Ring record is on VCA Home page.

    Not sure but I heard the ACR said they both taste like chicken.

    Track Day Video 9-19-11

    That's a lot of speed going into turn 1. I raised my speed through the turn by 4 mph from last time. I know I could carry a lot more speed through there but I'm working up to it slowly. Not a good place to go off. That clip at the end was actually shot after my first session in the...

    Track Day Video 9-19-11

    From last Monday with the Suburban Corvette Club of Minnesota at BIR. Knocked over 2 seconds of my previous best lap time on the 3.1 mile course. 165 mph down the front straight and 143 mph around turn 1. :omg: We had a very good showing of Vipers. Five showed up and four made it on the...

    Wheel size (18 vs. 19) for track days.

    I've done two track days now using R6's on factory 18/19 wheels and R6's on my SSR 18/18 wheels. MPH in Hastings, NE which is a 2.25 mile 14 turn course, top speed was 124 mph and BIR in Brainerd, MN, 3.1 mile 10 turn course, top speed was 165 mph. In both cases the 18/18 setup was...

    Vipers looking for revenge at The Ring Today!!!

    Looks like there might be one inside the SSG just to the right of the passenger seat. Exactly where I have mine mounted.

    NARRA USTTC Hastings - Video

    You have a roll bar so you're good to go! I wasn't sure how I'd like the wider angle of the GoPro but I prefer it now over the narrower view that my camcorder has. I like being able to see more of the cockpit while still having a decent view out the windshield. I offset the camera mount so...

    NARRA USTTC Hastings - Video

    Thanks guys, glad you enjoyed it! Very safe track. You'd have to do something really stupid to hurt the car. I love the new curbing! Tires were warmed up. Just found the rear grip limit I guess. :D Camera is mounted to a strut tower bar I had laying around. Goal was to not drill holes...

    Hint at 2013 Transmission

    Thanks for posting that document Tony. Important information like that should be included in the owner's manual in my opinion. Obviously the old fill it til it comes out the fill hole method does NOT apply to these transmissions. I had to learn that the hard way by cleaning up all the fluid that...

    Track Claw

    Tried some of that on BFG Drag Radials. Not sure if it helped. Didn't hurt. Gravel and other crap stuck to them like never before. Makes the tires smoke like crazy during the burnout too. :D

    Pleasantly surprised by my registration fees

    1.25% times the base value of the vehicle. Can you say "luxury tax"? The one good thing Jesse Ventura did when he was Governor was to change the yearly vehicle tax...err, license renewal to a much more reasonable and fair structure. If that was still in effect, my renewal would have been...

    Pleasantly surprised by my registration fees

    Be glad you don't live in Minnesota as well. My renewal this year was $880. But hey, it's gone down $200 since '09!! :mad:

    Carbon Fiber Front and Rear Stone Guards / Mud Flaps Review

    Yet for some reason you just couldn't help yourself. :dunno: This is a part/vendor review in the SUPPORTING VENDOR REVIEW forum, not a request for cheap alternatives to the part being reviewed. :rolleyes:

    M&M headers for Gen IV? Questions...

    Yes, no CEL with M&M headers and no cats. It's still easy to fool the rear 02 sensing on the Gen4 ECM. This is for off road only of course. :quiet:
