Signed up and participated in my 1st track day ever yesterday. Absolute fucking blast.



It was at Palm Beach International raceway using their road coarse. Got quickly bumped up to intermediate class after starting the day as a novice with an instructor. I was for the most part very pleased with how the car performed, although I realize even for as awesome as they are, Pilot Super Sports certainly aren't the stickiest tires out there. lol.

Even so, huge fun tossing the car around and making other arguably faster cars (couple vettes, etc) look silly in the turns was incredibly gratifying. As it becomes available, I'll post more photos and go pro footage of the event.

Went back to Motul 300v 0w-20 before the track day. My subjective opinion, engine response seems better than with Eneos Sustina. Worth the increased price? Arguable. I still think the Eneos is the better choice for a daily driven car that isn't ragged on all that often. But for track days or very spirited driving on a regular basis, I give the nod to the Motul stuff.
