I'd love to do the Open Track Challenge, but I own a restaurant and can't get away for more than a weekend.
My tires, Bridgestone S-03's, held up great. They looked almost new after 6 1/2 hour track sessions. I would have had 8 sessions, but my power steering pump blew in some driving exercises on the skid pad.

As you can see there isn't much tire wear and drove plenty hard.

I have a Ground Control coil over kit with Koni's, 22mm sway bar and front and rear tower braces. It stays amazingly flat through corners.

Some pretty sweet pics, but kinda crappy quality. Any better/bigger versions?

The pics are all from my digital video camera. The video looks sweet. I'll try to post some clips when I get a chance. Next time I'll bring my still camera as well.

That looks like a blast. That BAER brake setup looks nice too... Now I'm doubly jealous...

I've been planning on going to a Club Event at Road America. I'm concerned the Carousel is likely to cause oil starvation. Is this a legit concern or just me being paranoid?
