Thanks to Screamin for inviting many of us out to a track day that his buddies were hosting (though only 2 of us attended lol).

The group calls themselves SpeedEnvy. It was well run, and had refreshments and free swag. Despite their being over 30 cars at Shannonville (which is packed btw), there was ample seat time available and not much traffic to contend with.

I know Euphoric got some video...post some up XD

As for me, I finally took the car out after all the work I've done to it this past season.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cwdzLzzgcvE&t=441

Fastest lap record in the video is 2:02.9 with passenger, and I'm chatting with him the entire time. The car sans passenger will be mid 2:02's. Looking at the latest Ontario Time Attack results, I would have placed 1st in my class--beating out the next guy by something to the tune of 2 seconds.

All this with a full weight 4000lb sedan carrying a passenger...using suspension called "street comforts" and street brake pads (TRD ones haha).

The car is a HANDFUL. I am fighting it the entire time. It's really on edge, and it will snap from understeer into oversteer, back into understeer again multiple times in a corner. I wish I recorded my hands and feet because I'm really man handling the thing. But all that said, that is insane. Did not expect to do 2:02's with this thing. For context, a TT RS on Hoosier A6s did 2:04 during the time attack. I am on street tires...245's at that.

Though FTW. Euphoric does like 2:04's all day long, so he's right up there with that hoosier TT XD

Pls more ppl come out to the next track day. kthnx \:D

The event was primarily noobs. It's a very friendly bunch.
As long as passing rules are followed and mirrors are checked, it's nbd.
You should find one to go to if interested.

Thanks for post 4age, glad you and John enjoyed it. Given it's a more private day that just means more on-track time for us since you don't have a crazy amount of cars running around at once....it does feel more relaxed than other events from other organizers I've been to.

I thought there'd be more casc experienced guys we know there (thus more 'battling' fun on track for us ;\) lol) but I guess most couldn't make it or there was a recent event for them already. Regardless it's nice to be spreading the sport bringing in guys who are less experienced re. lapping but want to try it out and get more comfortable with their vehicles. Not to mention it's a good learning environment for them and many of us are casc experienced drivers/instructors.

Aug 15th is the next event, it's prob best to sign up starting Aug 1st since it'll be cheaper than buying 'day of' at the track.

http://speedenvy.ticketleap.com/trackdays/

Man I need to get r-comps for the R, when pushing at the limit the street summers just scream after enough hot laps =S. Never really timed but I think I'm 1-2 sec's off John's time. In Aug we can try to nail it down. Pretty much stock power (and nothing cray suspension) I just lose out to everyone on the straights \:\( - corners I can hang lol.

But yeah whoever can make it, try for Aug. Just sign up and pre-order online. Or you can show up day-of, just ensure to have the cash in hand.

lol, the Element is one of the organizers car, wasn't lapped. It's the base of op's with stuff they need as well as the swag/snacks/drinks/etc for attendees.

^Me? My suspension is actually too soft.
The track isn't that bumpy either. It's probably my camera mount flexing everywhere.

There are quite a few bumpy/shitty pavement spots but it's the camera mount. Mine does it too.

from a safety standpoint

i don't know if you remember the time you dropped by the team where i worked a few years ago; there was an older guy. Well for the longest time we saw he drives thumbs out and both the team owner and i repeated asked him to consider changing the grip.

never got around to it.

hit a wall once and didn't let go of the wheel; broke the thumb.

he wrapped after it healed up.

i mean chances of contact in hpde is so small it probably wont' matter in your case; but habits carry over and who knows if you'll get a chance to do w2w in the future.

that reasoning is the exact opposite Ive seen

wrapping = bad = possible breakage
keeping thumbs out = good = safety



edit: or do you mean to keep my thumbs out still,
but rearrange positioning more like this?
