than mine I feel that way about my car alot.

After the first two sessions its basically open since most of the cars are done and out by then. So I dont think there is any need to change anything.

[/quote]

well the point is that we’re not using the track to it’s potential since the first two session didn’t yield 12 cars on track most of the time. might as well get rid of the overhead and just open it up.

I should just sell it and buy something I feel better beating the snot out of on the track. and take the rest of the money for coke and hookers

I think short of the wheels on your car it isn’t more vulnerable than any other “nice” car out there, perhaps some of your chrome bling will get dirty. The paint isn’t new, and there aren’t a lot of aftermarket exterior items on there.

This is going to be an expensive day for me, supra needs 4 new rotors, pads, plugs, maybe tires? Toyota TT rotors are pricey, but im not running my pos cross drilled on the track. And I rather not run the iforges on the track but I dont want to buy a set of tires for my stockers that I may never use again.

Track the S4, track the S4, track the S4. The S4, I feel, would be better suited to this type of track. Watkins Glen, which is about 3 miles on lap, Supra all day long. The S4 has upgraded brakes and suspension, bring that.

We won’t have to worry about the sun. If it sets before 8pm, we’ll just run in the dark.

It’s less than an hour away and less than 5 hours of track time. No need for hotel.

I told you on the phone you are welcome to stay at my place.

the hotel you stayed at with TCCA a couple years ago for that buffalo meet is only about 15min from my house and is right by I-90. I don’t know what they charged though.

I just ran the mini at Watkins yesterday for a couple paced laps [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T3FwxQKUlDo](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T3FwxQKUlDo) but in all honesty this is my wife’s mini and I need to stop having fun with it. So I am going to buy my own =) then I will be attending as many of these events as possible.
