  1. HPDE newbie question

    Yes sir it's the: #3420: Aug 21st - 23rd, 2020 Fun In The Sun At Eagles Canyon Raceway Entry List Eagles Canyon Raceway Configuration: 2.7 Mile CCW What looking to do. Based on the description looks like a 2-day event. Is it a full day (4-20 minute sessions) or what's the typical day? Based...
  2. HPDE newbie question

    So I've been running around with other groups around my area (Edge Addicts and Driven Blessed) but want to run a few events NASA Texas who seems to host the HPDE events. My question is, would it be typical/mandatory to start with HPDE 1 on the first event even though I have track experience...
  3. Pictures in Race Mode!!

    Last time at COTA
  4. Had enough of aftermarket CAI & HIGH IAT's. So here's my fix.

    With the pipe insulation around the top, dremeled out grill just on the intake side, and the heat reflection tape, IATs show no more that 5*-10* above ambient no matter the conditions. Good enough for me with a JLT.
  5. What's your current milage at?

    34k miles and had evap replaced under warranty. Other than that been working as advertised.....
  6. Need help guesstimating track behavior

    Based on a quick Craigslist and FB marketplace search on that tire size it doesn't look like it's super common. So the aftermarket might be pretty soft on it. I guess I'll be a test pig and take them for a track day and report the experience. Billybob, it looks like I keep picking up steam on...
  7. Need help guesstimating track behavior

    So my last thread was about wheel spacers in anticipation of picking up the set of 18x11 Apex EC-7 ET52. So the feedback I'm looking for would be concerning the tires that came with the package. They are Falken Azenis fk510s 295/30-18s. Both the wheels and tires are pretty much brand new...
  8. Wheel spacer questions

    Yea I think part of the issue initially was me not giving enough background. So it seems like the easiest route at this point would be to use a Steeda 25mm spacer like initially linked until a bearing or whatnot goes out and can then look to install new hubs with extended studs. And for sure I...
  9. Wheel spacer questions

    So I think part of it is knowing realistically where I am with the hobby. For me I'm a long time Drag racer who's converted over auto-x then now to road course. So I have 5 on track sessions under my belt at this point. Will I get to the point where I will want to get into competing...
  10. Wheel spacer questions

    Yea problem is I don't have air tools in my tool arsenal. It's on the list but kids and other things always get in the way....which is why I was thinking replacing the hubs would be the easiest way. The car is a dual purpose one. I don't intend to make it a track only car so trying to find a...
  11. Wheel spacer questions

    So would these be a good option? Seems easier to go this route than to get a press and install new studs: https://lmr.com/item/M1104AB/15-17-mustang-front-wheel-hub-kit-ford-performance-m-1104-ab assume it’s a pretty straight install since it comes with the abs rings on it? Thanks again
  12. Wheel spacer questions

    What I figured but confirmation always good. What size extended studs did you all go with? I was hoping to get some that would stick out too much when running the SVE wheels.
  13. Wheel spacer questions

    So I'm looking at what are good options. I'm picking up a set of Apex EC-7 ET52 18x11 wheels and am looking at 25mm spacer for the front. My plan is run these on the track and switch to SVE GT350 20x10 wheels for the street. My question is will something like...
  14. How to reduce too high Cylinder Head Temperature on race track?

    I can get through 3 sessions going down to empty - 1/4 tank. I've been bringing 2 - 5-gal containers to the track with me for 5 session days... Luckily it isn't too hard to find E85 in the Austin area so if need more would just leave the track to grab more and roll back in.
  15. How to reduce too high Cylinder Head Temperature on race track?

    So running in the height of Texas heat (120* track temps) I didn't have any issues with overheating during a 25 minute sessions at COTA. What I'm currently running: Lund Flex-Fuel Tune (ran E85 at the track) 170* T-Stat (filled back up with distilled water instead of coolant during the swap)...
  16. Road course/Autocross peeps running E85 tuning?

    I bring more in 2 canisters..... not convenient what about what we do is.....
  17. Some track day updates to my car

    What chin spoiler is that?
  18. Need some advice to wheel and tire set up

    Thank you for the input and seems to solidify the decision on just sticking with 285 squared and not worry about hubs/studs till they need to be replaced. So there's been a few suggestions on tires. I'm at about 5 track events a year at this point (have a few little ones under the roof and...
