hmm… I hadn’t heard of that being a thing, but after some forum searching I now see people talking about that. I’ll have to research that some more, thanks for the tip!
Hey Patrick, I remember that weekend last year-had a great time ! Sorry to hear about the codes. If you need access to a lift, let me know-I’m just up the road from you. Happy birthday BTW.Track Date: May 21-22, 2022
This was a really fun 2 day HPDE event put on by The Drivers Edge at Eagles Canyon Raceway running counter clockwise. Even got to hang out with a couple Mach 1s. These two guys are retired friends that bought their cars to enjoy on the track. I really love meeting friendly people like this and it adds another level of enjoyment for track days
The only downside to the day was getting a SES dash light later in the day during one of the hotter sessions. Read the codes (P0300, P0305, P0306 Misfires), cleared them, took her back out for more.
Thank you sir! Yeah, that was a great weekend. It was my first two day event and really enjoyed the extra track time.
Going to Mid America Nationals next month for 2 days at Hallett. Always a good time!
Nice! I’ve done four track days this year so far, but May has been too busy to fit one in. Need to look at where I can go in June.
Thank you sir! I really enjoy this community and sharing my experiences
. Unfortunately, one day I connected my phone and it wouldn’t connect to CarPlay. In fact, EVERYTHING seemed to be operating in super slow motion! Any time I tried to interact with the Sync touchscreen, all the inputs were crazy delayed.
Great thread, I’ve enjoyed reading each post! Was curious as to where you got your decals, those look great on a black mustang!Track Date: May 16, 2022
Monday Funday with The Edge Addicts out at MSR Cresson on the full 3.1 mile CCW course. This was a really great event as I got to have a couple of sessions with my very first HPDE instructor from my first event in 2021! She drives a green 2019 PP2 that you can partially see in the first photo. She was happy to see I was still driving and improving
This was the first track day with the new suspension and what a difference it made! The car felt much more planted in the flat And planted in the corners.
Another first for this event was using the Schroth QuickFit Pro four point harness. At 6’2” and 210 lbs I was getting tossed around a bit just using the factory seat belt (even with locking the seat belt retractor). The harness does a great job of securing me and keeping me from moving around
Thank you, I really appreciate that!
I appreciate the detailed reply! I'll take a look at both sites and see what they're offering. It's a good point about the vinyl decals and not being reusable. Magnetic might be the way to go, hopefully they're secure enough to keep the wind from getting behind them an having them blow off!Thank you, I really appreciate that!
Those were the Boss 302 Replica Number Set from Spinnywhoosh in self-adhesive vinyl. That was my first experience with applying vinyl and despite my nerves, they went on really nicely. Looks like the price went up since I bought mine as I only paid $60 for my set.
When I got them, I had made an assumption that they were reusable, but a quick email to Scott at Spinnywhoosh clarified that “…those are good for only one use. They will hold up for 3-5 years just fine but once removed they're done. My apologies, I have that listed on most of my product pages for racing numbers but looks like I missed that one.” He’s got the product page updated with an appropriate warning now, thanks to me
Since they were one-time use, I made the best of the situation and kept them on for two weeks for the three track days I had scheduled.
The quality was first rate, and I may look into getting the magnetic versions in the future but worry that the 15” magnetic meatballs may not work with the body lines on the door. Right now, I have a smaller set of 12” magnetic numbers from trackdecals.com in a similar style (although they don’t look as good as the Spinnywhoosh version).
