Default Anyone going to Summit Point on 7/28 for FATT?

Well like the title says my g/f is doing the Friday At The Track at SP on the 28th and was wondering if anyone was going there as well?

My buddy blew the engine of our track car (944) there at a recent FATT day. Oil starvation for #2 rod bearing. Common problem for that engine.
What I'm getting at is that its maybe worth looking into a roadrace friendly oil pan, especially if you have many track days in mind.

Have fun!

Ah, another platform I'm familiar with.

She'll be racing? Or simply open lapping?

Or an accusump, although I have neither on my car and I run it at WGI, SP, LRP, POC (about 50 days---~4k miles) with no issues. But, then again a lot of the TX boys had oil starvation issues out there way.
