I say It is worth less than a similar mileage used GT350. When the mileage comes up in carfax for the next buyer. It is a yellow (not quite red) flag. You still need to explain it (but you might not even get a chance to explain it). Could be a good story, but most buyer won’t bother
an update. sold the GT350, bought a GT350R.
group of us (all race Miata), of 5 of us that tracks our GT350/R, ALL hit minimum of 285F. some as high as 300F depending on weather and track.
while I am okay with 300F (I do frequent oil change anyway), these cars run hot !!
it isn't Schroth, the School uses Safecraft.
this link is for the GT, but it uses Safecraft 4-point

Garmin VIRB Ultra 30. It has the built in data logging. Can also pull from OBD2 port with a $15 dongle (which I didn’t use this time as this isn’t my car)

5 tracks the car, but not much (2-5 times). of the 5 - 2 engines went kaboom. 2 (not the same as blown engine ones) had alternator bolts backing out while on track, belt coming off, engine overheats, goes into limp mode......

Bought a few from out of state.
1. Some state will charge you a sales tax. Some won’t. Don’t really matters as you still pay the same amount in the end. DMV will credit you for sales tax paid out of state.
2. New car must be registered at DMV. Cannot be done at AAA.
3. If it is used...

While chatting with bellwilliam, he swore by -3 to -4.5 front camber. My data also supports this.
I was talking to Sonny (driver for 949 Racing) and Dan M. (from Ford...
been saying it all along, with reading from a pyro. Front needs anywhere from -3 to -4.5 depending on tires and track. regular street tires (PSS) can get away with -3, but any of good 200tw tires (RS4, RE71R) or SC2/3R needs -3.5 or more. consider yourself lucky getting 2 track days out of...
