Snapped a few more at work today to hopefully give a better look at the tails and gurney flap. Cold and overcast here, brrrrrr. Car is also filthy.

Thanks ATL BRZ - I like the look, very similar to what I have in my head. Mine is being delivered at the end of the month. I can't wait. You have a great example of tasteful style.

Quick question, what color paint did you use on your tails? Looks great!

Yep! Just ran them through an auto-level filter and resized after.

You and brzranger have the cleanest black BRZs I've seen so far. Good work, I'll get there once I get my car!

I installed my SPC rear lower control arms and Stoptech performance brake pads today. Got it aligned afterward and the car feels awesome now after finally getting the excess negative camber dialed out in the rear. The oversteeryness is back with -1.2 front and -1 degrees rear camber.

The Stoptechs bite much harder than the OEM pads. Can't wait for the track day next Sunday at Atlanta Motorsports Park!

I had a great time at Atlanta Motorsports Park yesterday for the iTrack Motosports Santa Run. The track is amazing, designed by Herman Tilke, who has designed many F1 tracks. The elevation changes are hard to capture unless you're driving it or above in an aircraft.

Arial shot:



I took this one from the top of the tower:



Thanks to Andrew Nuse. Link to full album on Facebook.



@ironchef, @Dave-ROR, and @BadCompany235 all tracked their 86's as well and we had a great time hanging out and enjoying the day. Unfortunately two off-track incidents and one big oil spill kept delaying the sessions all day so we only got to go out for 3 sessions total so I feel like I barely got to know the track. I'll definitely be back at AMP in late April with the Porsche Club and hopefully get some better track time.

More pics to come. I purchased 10 high-res from the pro photographer at the event.
