Thunderhill on the 14th was awesome. It was nice seeing all you guys. There was definitely a very strong 86 presence, we are slowly taking over! Here are some short vids!

Beautiful lines there Ryan! I like the spin out video too, lol, I'm sure you did that on purpose to showcase the infamous "Subaru train"

Haha thanks, and yes that's exactly why I spun out... just trying to be a team player!

I was @Thunderhill this weekend (Sunday) as well with City Tech. Set a new personal best of 2:03.3 (bypass config) in the S2000 (stock engine, street tires).

I may or may not have video. Just got a new GoPro and I can't figure out why the recording turns itself off mid-session when I start the recording from the GoPro phone app.

Your entry speed into that corner ....

Hehe nice lines and nice footage! Are you a track addict now? How does the UEL sound being at high revs all the time?

Thanks for the videos Ryan, very nice lines. Your entry speed into that corner was very high though! I remember our coach in one of the classroom sessions saying he probably takes it slower than any of us, and he was way faster than any of us.

Nice recovery on the spin, too, good thing your car started right away cause that usually isn't the case if you spin enough.

Here is my video from the day, threw some fun bits in there too:

Looks like all the cool kids are throwing up their vids

Bumper cam (on tow hook). Thought it would be an awesome time to try out my external mic, had it all wired up, running from the front bumper to the trunk, by the exhaust but genius me did not turn on the mic so enjoy some Flume instead!

Inside cabin shot, mic wired up and turned on this time, but guess what, not plugged to the GoPro! One of these days I guess...

Thanks Kevin, I really like my set up and the way it sounds. It does loose a bit of the uel sound in the higher revs but its all good. I 'm addicted for sure, I'll be doing at least a few track days a year... And yah I definitely carried too much speed into that turn and my timing was pretty bad. Glad I got the spin on video though lol.

Great video Chris. Crazy that your best lap is a full 9 seconds better than mine. After watching your video though it makes more sense. Your line and timing is way better. Thanks for sharing. I am already excited for our next track day, hopefully it is soon!

Looks like you guys had some serious fun! I thought I was content with some twisties, but maybe next year I'll try a track day. Is everyone prepped with brake pads? Did I read that someone swapped their rotors?

Mainly for convenience. I've done my first 2 track days on stocks. Got some cheap rotors as dedicated track rotors to save me the trouble of having to constantly bed-in when swapping back to stock.
