AP Racing front calipers  
AP 13.5 J slot rotors infront  
Project MU pads (i think thats how they are spelled)

In the back im just running cross drilled brembos with metalic pads, stock caliper…dont want to strong of a rear brake…doesnt weigh much in the back.

Well would a JDM super light weight S14 silvia car jack be a good prize for enjoying my vids?

Thanks man, the two left turns that drop off were scareing the shit out of me all day…Those walls are really close in some places.

Paul from Neetronics said im making about 330 hp at the wheels with no boost controller running 12 psi off HKS wastegate. The back tires were smoking on the dyno and let go at 290 rwhp so its only his best estimate concidering that the car was still pulling like mad. Before I went to Mosport I finished setting up the electronics and im now running 15 p.s.i. The mid range comes on much stronger now 🙂 Ill get it dynoed properly when im finished building the car.

That S2000 entered the last corner before the pit straight backwards I think…the guys at the track were really pissed becasue he was driving like an asshole all day

Aaron is nutz…  
He piled 4 people plus driver into the white M5 and drove it faster then half the people at the track… I like him 🙂 I just wish I had brought the camera with when he was ripping that poor bimmer apart!!! Props to BMW for making such a rediculous 4 door

Wow really working the field there. That Porsche driver sure had some weird lines and that S2000 probably started over-correcting after losing it around the turn and finaly spun it further up.

I hit up Kensai to go on that day buy couldn’t squeeze by the mandatory first time Mosport course fee of $200 plus the track day plus fuel would have been like a $700 hit.

Aaron is nuts huh? At the limits of traction to maintain speed, there is no way I could control a RWD car through that…

Est. times:

1:39  
1:36  
1:41 cool down at end

Awesome driving Jon. That course is not for the faint of heart. Everytime I go there someone wrecks their car.

What tires and wheels are you on?

Thanks…at the end of one of my runs…Aaron would get me to draw the race line on his note pad…but my hands were shaking so bad that I drew a squiggly one right off the track…it was definatly the most intense driving ive ever experienced…

Ive got WED Sport Racing Wheels with Toyo RA-1’s…17x8.5 in front with 235/45 and 17x9 in the back with 255/40

Ya but whats the score with the race school experience needed? Is that just a Kensai thing?

I’m headed to a Bondurant road racing course so it would be pointless…plus I just remembered I’m testing some crazy production cars there soon.

Spring would be gangster with my new setup count me in as a prepay.

The race school was not manditory and there was no extra charge for first time at Mosport…The scool was 125 or 150 I dont remember…but I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to try Mosport…They dont teach you how to drive…they teach you how to drive at Mosport so you dont smash your car into the walls…
