Absolutely. You guys should get the same spot near the road course again. We are typically always on the corner there.

You mean here, past the stop sign on the right? You can see my front end by the dumpster.

Yea, I know where I'll be. Of course that's where I usually am. If it were quieter, I'd share a movie. Have thought about starting a drive-in (sort of) behind the concession building, too noisy at night. Some car movie, of coarse, might still think about it.

That'd be sweet. At least it typically is quiet in that area.

That's why we camp there. Everyone who does roadcourse is right near it and it's about as far away from ground zero as possible lol

Yup I'll never stay at the track. I'm too old for that party life anymore.

Most of our guys tuck in pretty early(8-10) to get on the course in the morning.

For the most part it's not too bad. Reasonably quiet. Lots more fun and less expensive lol. To each their own though.

Do you guys stay in the rooms at the track? I've always been curious what they're like.

I had this clinking/cranking sound when turning the last few days, I did some research and it could be my pillowball (isc coilovers) mounts or endlinks... I drove the car out of the garage this morning and heard the noise when turning but while driving in the rain, after several mins it went away.... I have about 800 miles on the setup. I will jack the car up later to inspect but have you guys had or heard of this issue?

Definitely a suspension component.

Check:
-ball joints
-the upper strut bearings for play(this might be the pillow ball)
-make sure the top nut on the coil over is tight(I found this to be the issue on my buddy club n+ coilovers once)
-endlinks

Hate to think it would be a wheel bearing issue with such low mileage. Im at least assuming it's relatively low mileage for such a new car.


Just some thoughts off the top of my head. Good luck with your dx process
