My wife just asked me the same question. For the first 15 years of marriage she didn't want to know. Pre Covid I estimated it was $1500 per weekend. Here is my breakdown today for a 2-day weekend event Tow vehicle gas: $100 to $200 ( depending on destination) ( three hour drive for closest...

Here is the response I received from Vitour regarding "professional" Heat cycling: "We don't see significant benefit in professional heat cycling on P1. They still perform best with 2-3 laps of autox or road course to remove the outermost layer which the professional heat cycling services will...

I pulled off my Proxes RR's to inspect and scrape off collected marbles of rubber from the last track weekend. As I finished the last tire (Front Driver), I could see some cords exposed very slightly. Knowing what to look for I reinspected the passenger side front and did see the beginings of...

I called GoodYear customer service and she said she never heard that question is 12 years. I called Tire Rack and they said NO need. I also sent an email to Vitour, Indianapolis, we'll see what they say. I'll take them out on the street and run them around, heat them up best I can and then let...

Is there any value in paying Tire Rack $100 to heat cycle 200 treadware track tires? I've had them heat cycle Nitto NT01's (treadware 100) and Toyo Proxes RR's (Treadware 40)

What size race slicks work on the S550? It seems most are too tall.

That is interesting, all the other info i have gathered on the P1's indicate they should be long-lived as far as the 200 tread ware category. My other option is the GY F1 Supercar 3. I'll probably try the Vitour first then the GY Supercar 3 next

I have a 2019 GT PP2 I use at HPDE's, All the normal suspension upgrades. Track day wheels are BC Forged KL11's 10" up front, 10.5" rear Currently I'm running Toyo Proxy RR's, 295/30/19 (replaced in 2025 by the Proxy R's) on all 4 corners. The Toyo RR's (and R's) have a 40 treadwear rating. I...

Congrats on your sale, beautiful car! I was hoping to find a red PP2 when I bought mine but no luck for me. What's Next for you? Any vehicles on the horizon?

If you are in SE MI (or Lansing) and have an interest in using a trailer to haul your car to a track weekend, as a test or on a regular basis, please send me a PM. I have a 20 ft all aluminum open car hauler with winch. Trailer weight is 1300 lbs, as light as they come. I have race ramps if you...

The manufacturer says empty tongue weight is 200 lbs. which makes sense on a tandem axel trailer that has a total weight of 1300lbs.

I did not check empty tongue weight, I can do that next time. Thanks.

thanks for the heads up!

I appreciate everyones input, I'm not experienced regarding setting up a towing package. I purchased a Tongue weight scale and positioned the car to exert 500 lbs tongue weight. (recommended tongue weight is 10 to 15% of total weight being towed). Vehicle Max tongue weight is 600 lbs Max...

After taking care of all the S550 suspension weak points, MGD shifter, etc., I decided this year I'd spend my annual upgrade allotment on a Guardian Designs steering wheel. Next year I will spend my annual upgrade allotment on a Livernois 93 octain tune for $600.

I did the same but added the Vibrant bottle style resonators.

It finally arrive! Definitely a premium addition. I was going for the GT350 OEM, premium Plus look and went with the 2-seam design but extended the lower leather up to the horizontal spokes in the wheel. Pictures don't do it justice! It's a lot of money for the upgrade. I looked at it for years...

I was looking for a mid-size SUV that can tow more then 5000 lbs. I highly prefer regurlar gas rather than 91/premium. That leaves the Jeep Grand Cherokee with towing package, Nissan Pathfinder and apparently, in 2025, the Toyota 4Runner. I went with the Pathfinder. I got a great deal year-end...

It has finally arrived. I'm very please with how it truned out. Pictures do not do it justice! I probably won't get it installed this weekend but some time next week.

That will certaily work!
