I'll be coming in on Hwy 80 from California, not sure which day I'll get there, but I'll be driving through...we'll have to swap a few cell numbers so that we can meet up on the way if we can.

No word at all from Summit so i called our freinds at BeaveRun as a preventative measure. I don't feel optimistic about Summit but I do agree I hate for it to move again and was looking forwards to the new track! I suspect we will do a partial refund if we move to the Beaver. Thanks Trey...hopefull...

So Trey...what was the final outcome of the conversation concerning Summit Point? I would still love to go if the venue and date change, however it's going to take me quite a bit of time going up the corporate ladder for approvals.

Ouch!
Yeah...the amount of friction material left was equal to ~3 pieces of paper tightly packed, he was VERY lucky that it was pulled before it killed anything.

The Mugen clutch was designed for racing use only, a friend recently pulled the clutch out at ~12,000 miles and it was done, although it did have ~4 track days on it. If you want a racing clutch be prepared to pull the transmission and replace the clutch at regualar intervals.

George...are you sure on the +38mm Kosei K-1 rims? I know of several local autocrossers that are running 205-50/15 V700's and have had to roll the fenders to prevent rubbing issues. I'm also aware that Mario on Honda-Tech is selling his +38mm with 205-50/15 Falken Azenis due mainly to a rubbing issu...

Re: What kind of 0-60 times are you guys getting?

Using a program that calculates your 0-60mph time and uses your 1/8 mile time and mph, prior to the replacement of my clutch, flywheel, JDM FD, not so sticky tires, and retuning...it computed out as a 5.2 second 0-60mph, if I head to the strip this weekend I might get some more current times and see...

Every JDM cat-back exhaust system (except 1 or 2 straight through and under-the-axle design) will have small bottlenecks in the b-pipe. Why? Maybe it's to produce a desirable flow characteristic which can't be achieved by having a straight pipe design. Possibly, bottleneck is good for throttle resp...

The mugen exhaust sounds sweet, but in high performance very expensive exhausts, it's lacking a little in the performance department. Later, Aj The HyTech isn't all that raspy...mine is a lit...
