had a good time at Pocono this weekend. first day was pretty crowded in our group but it cleared up the second day. i really liked running in the rain. gave me a chance to work on my inputs not being to hasty. helped smooth them out
the transition into 1 is rough, there are some slightly 'smoother' areas to enter across the turn but no matter what, i hit my head on the roof every time! the most eye opening part of the weekend for me was taking a ride in the instructors car. holy crap!! where they brake and how n where they place there car is amazing. i never experienced R comps n track pads... whole diff world |

Oh, and hitting your head on the roof ... sounds like it is time for seats, a harness bar, and belts. JK!

My suggestion to say something about the train was along the lines of "hey, there's a lot of cars in this group - for future events, can you break it up more" - not asking to get bumped up a run group. I agree that getting bumped up a group is a not-so-great idea because you won't have fun pointing people by every 6 seconds.

yea its a great time, ive atteneded this event the past couple of years. for the touring laps you donate $20 and the proceeds go to a charity that Cale Kastanek family choose, usually its almost a 40 car field.

CJ, now that you have 2 bucket seats, you really should look into a harness. You can buy harnesses that clip into the rear seats so you don't need a harness bar. Keeps your car streetable and keeps you even tighter through the turns. I think some of these are even compatible with a Hans. If I had a backseat that would've been my next mod... now I have to think about half cage next year instead.

See my thread here: http://www.nasaforums.com/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=65422 On another topic your car looks so good man! Wonder how much you saved by taking out the rear seat. You should have no problem hitting high 1 "teens" at Lightning! =D |

@Dallasboosted, haven't looked at that. The Brey Krause one looks much stronger but I'm not an expert. I don't think there are any public photos of it yet.
@Dan - I haven't committed to anything yet with the harness bar. I want harnesses and HANS bad but if it comes down to doing a full cage, that's quite a chunk of change and gahhhh I don't know. Thanks for the feedback about the car. I'm getting some more stuff done to it soon including custom brake ducting, that should be done for the Nov 3-4 event. The rear seat is about 50-60 lbs! I've removed ~120-130 lbs combined with the front seats. And the OZ Racing wheels I got are only 18 lbs each. Quote:
