Homestead Miami - 1/26/2013

So I'm heading back out, car should be "physically ready by then". Though it may not be painted and such still. Going to put it through a one day event to see how it holds up.

LINK

If anyone's interested in heading out there, then I look forward to seeing you.

Going out with my Kosei K1s, adding in some spacers in the front with a set of RS-3 255/40/17 all around. Also buying track insurance this time ... ha

Congrats man! That's awesome to hear. Did you end up with the widebody fenders? Or are you planning on running 255's on the stock fenders. I am hoping to squeeze 255 rs3's on my car as well on some Koseis. I'd love to know how it works out.

P.S. Do you mind me asking how you like your UUC ssk???

Yea, I got the ER Wide Body wet CF kit, it'll be difficult to fit 255's in the front with stock fenders. Though, I suppose it could be possible, haven't tried. Biggest I've gone in the front was 245/45/17 and that was with a -3.0 camber.

The UUC has treated me well so far, no complaints, though I've known people that hate it, they've had issues with miss-shifts. I just tell them to learn how to shift like a man .

This got moved to PBIR (Palm Beach International Raceway), not may favorite track down here, but it'll do to get back into it for now.
