Good for you Tu!! People that haven't gone to one of these events have no idea what they're missing out on. It's a blast. You get to drive at whatever level you are comfortable at... How many can say they've driven their car at this track or some other cool place... and most of all you meet great people. What could possibly be better than all of that.


Yes -- you find out what you "need" very quickly... whatever that happens to be. But to me - that's also part of the fun. When you stop improving your car and yourself - what else do you have to do? LOL

You're right about having fun and meeting great people. I wasn't the fastest one out there, and did not expect to be. Heck I expected to be last. My main thing was having fun, and be able to drive the car at TMS.

Uploaded a couple of videos from the event.

Autocross


Road course. This was the last session, and my fastest lap.

Awesome pictures and video Tu. It definitely looks like a blast. I'll have to make it out next time. :D

Do it Jason. You'll have a blast.

Minor updates
 

After the USCA Texas event, I wanted to do a brake upgrade, since I felt the C6 Z51 was just adequate, but not good enough to my liking. So a quick call to Ron Sutton got me this box.

Wilwood Aero6 calipers with BP-10 pads.

Installed in the car. It was a noticeable improvement in braking.

Looks great behind the Formula S6 wheels.

The seats also needed improvement as the Procar seat flexed too much during the TMS event. I ordered up a pair of Recaro Specialist S seats from Dale at Schwartz Performance.

Planted seat brackets.

Installed in the car. The initial impression was: wow, these seats are awesome. Sure worth the $$$.

Now I'm trying to convince my friend that he should put these seats in the Mustang fastback.:G-Dub:

18 days before we leave for Power Tours. We're going to do the leg from Memphis to Baton Rouge.

Way to play Tu!


Nice upgrades for sure.

Awesome upgrades!

Greg/Jason,

Thanks for the compliments. I started to really enjoying the car more and more. Picked the kids up from school the other day in the car, and they loved it.
