We did not get weighed and didn't see anyone else get weighed.

They did have scales at the event though, but from what I understand they are there only if someone "contests" a car as not following the rules or something like what @ka-t_240 was talking about.

The event was a lot of fun! I think you'll have a good time.

Got to see the car 1st hand yesterday @ Sonoma Raceway with the SpeedSF/NorCal 86Cup event.


Nash was kind enough to pop the hood and show us some of the work you guys are doing. Nice job. I dig the Works spec Ohlins, STI calipers, brake ducts, and of course the CARB legal, intercooled turbo kit.

Good to hear and thank you! Glad you were able to check out the car. Were you driving that day?

Btw, we are still looking for a volunteer to R&D the automatic transmission compatible versions of our turbo kits. The volunteer would get a large discount on the turbo kit & labor.

If you know anyone that might be interested have them contact us.

Cheers

Yes, I was driving in the event. Crazy wet that day... never been on track with so much standing water and rain. Quite an experience.

The turbo kit's intercooler and heat exchanger was an a clever setup. I've never seen it done like that before.

I'll keep it in mind that you are looking for an auto trans owners but I personally don't know anyone with an auto. Most of the 86 owners i know are track regulars and they are all manual trans drivers.

Nice, I was with the white STi w/ orange wheels. We drove the car there non stop from Fargo, ND. Broke a wheel in half Sunday, and somehow manged to get the car home. Got really lucky a shop was able to find us a wheel from his customer.

First video from the event, this one from the Speed/Stop Challenge. There's a even a nice spin in the middle of it too. Enjoy.
