It was a little hard to hear the rumble, can you do another video with idle and driving off from idle? Also, whats the diameter of the headers, are they 2.5"?

So jealous that you get to drive Laguna Seca! The corkscrew must have been awesome?
Just a hint, the gear lever is not a hand rest, shift and then put both hands on the wheel, also some nice tail out, action, a slightly later turn in will give you a bit more stability.
Thanks for a good post!

Thats the size I have been using on the track. All the rubber you need for DEs.

I love this car on the rain in the wet. Embarrassed plenty of fast hardware last event and it was positively delightful under rain. Isn't it awesome when people come over and say "I read that these are supposed to be slow, what gives?" haha.

Looked slightly tail happy. Do you have adjustable alignment? Try running zero toe-in next time, you should notice improved stability and grip under power, I would like to hear your results.

Cannot wait for our Borla UEL to get here!
