Open up the LG Motorsports catalog, click on suspension ... If you brake through 1 and 2, lift through 7 and 12, you'll never see the 50s ...

And realize that CMC is a spec class, limited to 230rwhp & 300 ft/lbs of torque, allows only spring and shock changes, 16" Toyo tires and a minimum weight for 4th gen F-Bodys of 3200 lbs.

Last time I was at TWS, I was ***** out on the straight, close to 6K in 4th when a TT Viper, kind of like the Viper in the photos, grabbed rubber passing me on the inside. Impressive ...

we have a guy at work that daily drives a tacoma on bfg all terrains, and then slaps on the kumho race rubber on weekends and hits the track, its awesome, he can drive like mother and the only downfall is he gets passed on the straights cause the truck is slow, but on the corners no one can touch him

I've been out to TWS about three times since moving to Texas. I'm going to sign-up for the Drivers Edge this summer. Just looks like too much fun!!! Nice cars, especially the Maranello and the Aston Martin Vantage. Way cool.....

Thanks for the comments about my exhaust sound. I like it too.

Times? Actually I did not know you could get your lap times, lol. News to me. Probably a good thing though. I'm still not pushing hard enough in some of the corners to worry about times. It seemed like everyone was passing me during the 3rd session on Sunday. I held my own during the 4th session though. Finished with an S2000 ahead of me and a Lotus behind. Damn, some of those S2000s can corner!
