Anyone interested in buying my P3 V2 vent gauge? I pre-ordered it and it finally arrived. Since then decided i want to keep my ODB2 port free for logging. It's brand-new/unused shipped for $360. Spent $390 on it from p3cars (currently sold out until all preorders are shipped).

Figured i'd offer it up here first before the classified section

Was meaning to bring this up earlier but is anyone partaking in the Targa Trophy down in the OC? Me and a friend of mine with the white Audi S5 will be down there from the 21st-24th (Targa is on the 23rd)

Nice vent guage. I'd be all over that but I already have the ver 1. You guys without boost guages should get this!

Do you have any pictures of your car? Were you the one behind us at the start of the last run?

I don't have any recent pics of my car but there are several on this sight, both on and off the track.

I was behind you on the 3rd run for a few laps... enjoyed the sound and view. I complimented the owner because that's probably the exact color combo I'd get if I made the switch. Really nice car.

Was nice meeting you Dan, hope your buddy made it though the last event. What did you say was the name of that guy who solved his flexing hood problems?

Synd & Activ, missed you this time but i'm sure i'll run across you guys at some future event.

Nice to meet you too. Really considering that hood. Looked real good. Here's the info as requested...

Ahh yes I know which on you are re watched our go pro footage and we saw you passing us

, quick car! Hopefully get to meet you soon.

I'm going to the dealership to possibly pick out my car probably going with Manual, this will be my first Manual car nervous/excited.

Syndicategt · 07-09-2011, 03:19 PM

Dan, you should post your videos that you took!

Syndicategt · 07-10-2011, 12:27 PM

Good morning Sac town! Just changed my oil.....black as coffee

I think I'll be doing it every 5k miles for now on.

lawwailok · 07-10-2011, 03:03 PM

I don't have much good video as the track was congested. Here's a clip of me attempting to keep up with an instructor in his faster car. Few things I noticed while on the track, 1) I need to force a lower gear at turns 7 and 11. I'm losing speed on the exit and 2) I need better tires... not slicks but something more aggressive than these Hankooks. BTW, I think I need to be an instructor too. Don't get me wrong; I'm no pro. I just want to break the passing rules like they do! Anyway, here you go...

Syndicategt · 07-11-2011, 09:58 AM

Awesome Dan! Damn you made that M5 look like he was standing still at 4:30. I'm going to buy a GoPro for our next event.
Eric, sign up for Thunderhill on August 13th, it's a beginner track so don't fear the walls. Nice TE's btw!

If you want, I'll give you the name of an eBay seller that gave me a killer deal. Got a hdhero motorsport, lcd screen, and extra battery for $310 shipped.

Does it come with the memory card? I hear that's a issue with the Hero and not being compatible with other cards. Also, did your suction cup come with it?

No, it did not. And you will want a 16 gb card as each 20 minute session takes a little over 3gb at 720 resolution and 60 gps.

Shoot this eBay seller an email and see what he can do for you... layzieb94. Good luck.

Im trying to adjust my schedule so I can make it. NASA looks like a good group to join for track days. Does NOT look as restrictive as audi club track days I've done in the past once you get past HDPE 2 level.

Let me clarify. It did not come with a memory card. It does come with all the mounts you'll need.

I'll try....but a quarry truck kicked up a rock and smashed my windshield this morning. I got a grapefruit size crack/smash right now.

Again, what's up with Wednesdays and rain this year! Atleast the themps will be cool.

Are you and Tyler going to sign up for Thunderhill? More fun than the 1/4 mile!

It always rains on wednesdays!

I'm not sure about thunderhill, we usually just take our shifter karts out if we need a quick near death experience, its more of a rush to go close to 100 mph less than an inch off the ground

and I don't feel as bad if we wreck, I would be pissed if someone creamed my car.

Syndicategt · 07-14-2011, 12:37 PM

Trevor - Break into the 11's yet? How are the new half shafts, did you get DSS?
