That will be tough to do back to back as BMWCCA is running Laguna Seca on the 18th.

Let me get this straight... You are swapping out parts designed by some of the top engineers in the world because some guys sponsored by a company told you it's "better??" But when you ask the same guy about tracking, "oh no, I have a kid now" or "I just detailed my car." or "i just got new tires."

Yes and no. Its a big free for all, some people love it, others can't stand it. At Buttonwillow its not too bad, easy to find open track. Never ran with them at Cal Speedway though.
