Infineon 10/31 roll call

dieguito37 · 09-24-2009, 01:27 PM

I bit the bullet and signed up. Too much fun to be had. Going to stay in Vallejo because it is CHEAP and I sleep like a rock after a track day.

I cant make it...couple of reasons..

1) Chorded my front tires at Buttonwillow (now I know the reason why I was so slow...:-)

2) Lack of fundage - next couple of months are gonna be tight for me. I also might be changing jobs.

I'm in. First time at the track since April. It's been far too long. I hope I remember the way around Infineon

I am in, 3rd time there, but this time I have the Toyo's and an LSD. Oh, and Spring/Shocks with it lowered. Cannot wait for turn 12 with the LSD in place, no more one tire slipage.

I'm a noob; first time at Infineon. Looking forward to meeting you guys. Say hi if you spot my car in "D"

Hey Orion and Blue. Great weekend.

Hitting 2:00 consistently and did a 1:58 although sliding a lot.

R compounds would help but the new brakes, softer ft swaybar and new Dunlop Direzzs were great. Car never felt more balanced with a little oversteer bias.

Hey, it was great meeting you guys. Thanks for all the tips. You guys were right; I was actually faster/smoother after I took out my tune/piggyback. Wow, didn't expect that! It's a hard concept to sell for sure....take out power???.....NOOOOO

Great track, great instructors, BMW CCA really puts together quality HPDEs.

Steve, You would have loved it. Lots of room.

I missed almost 8 months of track time before this. I feel your pain.

orionredwing, I have never been sure about anything as much as "Make your 335 reliable before you do anything." Get the cooling right then get a reliable tune. It seems like the remapping Harold is doing -- not a tune -- has been working without fault.

Good meeting you.
