Track Day at Reno-Fernley 2/14
 
Valentines Day Event!!!!! that we can all enjoy.

Guys, I'm going to Reno fernley raceway tommorrow to run a half day of test and tune, I reserved AM half day spots for Scott and I already, but if anyone else wants to run, you might want to give a call ahead. There is some driver school tommorrow, and we will get to run in between their sessions.

I'll want to leave Reno by 8:15 AM to get out there.

See ya

$75 for half a day! :)

(And don't give me any "It's Valentines Day" crap. We already established that holiday is BS. Plus if you're up here you can watch Daytona with the group on the big-screen.)

Don't think I can turn around that fast.

We could probably get the track to ourselves Monday... Anybody up for that?

MattR 2004-02-13 02:37 PM

MattR 2004-02-13 06:15 PM

So, I'm gonna have breakfast with a friend from work at 7:30 AM in Sparks, I'd like to leave by 8:15 or so. I'll be at the Black Bear resteraunt across form the truck stop in Sparks (I'm probably the only one who knows where the truck stop is). It's on McCarran.

damn yous... I'll be at the next one for sure. :P

dknv 2004-02-14 06:57 PM

that looks great!
And now I can see what you guys were talking about in terms of the additional runoff area. That is much better than before.

Anybody take times?

sperry 2004-02-14 08:56 PM

I clocked Dean at 58.8 seconds, and Scott and I were running right around 1 minute flat...pretty damn good I think..

oops, Forgot to log in as Matt...it's Matt.

Best Valentines Day Ever!!!!!!!!!!!

BOO 2004-02-14 09:14 PM

I ran my stock Bridgestone RE070's. They hooked up very well. Taking turns at 90mph + on my stock setup is pretty imprezzive I think. I love the RE070's, but Dean and Scott were both very well connected on their Azenis too.

I played with the diff a little, but the auto setting seemed the best because it maximized my corner exit traction. There is really no where on the track where i need the car to rotate tightly, so rear bias just scrubbs traction.

all in all a great day
