Ya Ed has my numbers. If he wants to invite more Evo's I might be able to get some to come. But still it was a great event,sorry to see the guys at Eq take a hit, but wow it was a great day. Best track day ever! Makes NASA look like a parking lot....20+ cars on the track at a time? So ya Ed you know our/my number if you want to coordinate for more Evo's.

Ya I got a rough tune on that thing...I try to self tune. I might need Ed to just triple check my tune. LOL. At first I was running too lean before the even...then I reflashed at the track and too rich. I think at the end of the day I found a good AFR, but I still need to data log some more. But really I need some better tires and rims. I also boiled my brake fluid and loss some pressure in 14 and pulled off right away into the track exit where I had a TOTAL loss of pressure in the hot pit and glided into the paddock, where I reversed to stop the car, haha. But thanks for the kind words

ahh i see. i was wondering why you backfired almost every time you shifted. (and it didn't sound like you were flat foot shifting) i think i remember seeing you coast up to the paddock. thought you blew your motor, good thing i was wrong. hopefully i'll be seeing you at the next event since i'm hearing people say Ed wants to organize another one.

Great pictures Steven!

First of all, HUGE thanks to everyone for coming out to our first track day! It went better than we could have hoped for and we all had a blast! The overall atmosphere was exactly what we wanted and really reflects well on our tightly knit Subie community. We definitely wouldn't be where we are without all of you guys supporting us every step of the way! We owe a lot to the community and this is a perfect way to give back to you guys.

Finally, thanks to everyone who chipped into the donation box! We were surprised by how much we got at the end of the day and it definitely helped bring us closer to breaking even for the event. We will DEFINITELY be organized more of there small, intimate track days in the future and we hope to see you guys back again!

Again, HUGE thanks to everyone who came out!
-- Ed

LOL well also that could be I'm cat-less. 3" custom exhaust, no fuller or anything...so dumping the fuel and stuff I'm sure I was spitting out nice ***** of fire. Haha. Ya no motor failure or overheating issues, besides the brakes, haha.

Smile Video Footage!

Here is the video everyone. Created by: Darrell (He drove the stock black STi)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gd3YTRyv07c

For some reason the video editing software didn't capture Adam's flybys and many others. I am going to take a look at the raw footage and create a little compilation of all the flybys that were recorded. If you are bored watching me drive you can fast forward to a couple fly bys on the front straight @ 5:40ish.

Enjoy!

Thanks again for posting this vid!! Do you have any more of the silver MR2 at all? Just wanted to see my car out there. Heard my exhaust for the first time @ 2:29. Thanks!

I should bring my vid-cam by the shop so everyone can take a whack at it with a hammer.
