^What he said. If my finances pan out over Christmas, I'll gladly buy the fog light setup off of you.

Re: Getting started in HPDE/Professional Driving

Steve, If money is tight then do corner worker stuff for free track time... I'm not sure where you're located, but you'll get a feel for what to expect at a track day and you'll know all of your flags so you'll have a huge leg up on the safety protocol stuff. I second this. I did corner work for fi...

Re: Getting started in HPDE/Professional Driving

I hope none of this sounds/sounded condescending, but it isn't an effective way to bleed your clutch or brake system. Not at all, but I'm curious as to why. Whenever people talk about it, they describe the results as having a very firm brake pedal, more so than when done the normal way. This is the...

What's wrong with a gravity bleed? I've heard good things about it, but all the same, I'm all ears. My brakes were bled the proper way when I changed them at the Dragon by the way.

Thanks, I know. I actually changed it at the Dragon, so it was about 7000 miles ago give or take. I plan on doing a gravity bleed the next time it's changed.

Re: Getting started in HPDE/Professional Driving

I replaced the brake fluid less than 10,000 miles around with the Motul 600 stuff. Also, I don't have an R; I have a 98 GS-R sedan with a motor that was rebuilt to OEM spec 20,000 miles ago.

What I do plan on doing after it warms up is transmission fluid.

Re: Getting started in HPDE/Professional Driving

Thanks everyone, I appreciate all of your input. I will take everyone's advice into consideration while doing more research on what I should do. Everything you guys have mentioned would be something I'd be willing to do. And yeah, making my car go faster isn't what I'm aiming for right now, as tempt...

Re: Current Deals on Extreme Performance Summer Category

If I can get Dan, aka Conev8r in here, he ran a set a Kumho XS's at ITR Expo. He has pictures of them picking up rubber from other people's tires on the track. He also said that the hotter the tires got, the more they gripped, unlike others.

Anyone else have any experience with them?

Getting started in HPDE/Professional Driving

If this question has been asked on here, I apologize, as I didn't see it when looking for a topic on it. I figured since a lot of you are professional drivers in one way or another, this would be the best place to go for this kind of advice. Ever since I went to Expo 10 and the Team-Integra Dragon R...

Re: Expo 11 - Possible Event Location

I know I'm fairly new here and all, but I thought I'd mention this. When Team-Integra held the Dragon run this year, we had people coming from all over the country; Texas, Kansas, Florida, even two people from California. Now I know two from California doesn't seem like a lot, but event like the Dra...

Whaaaaaaaaat?! I can't believe you have to sell this... times must be tough, just like you said.

Good luck with the sale. I can't afford this on the salary of a college student, but if I win the lottery, I'll be sure to stop by for this gem.

Re: UKDM gauge cluster

I did the same thing when I bought a USDM ITR cluster for my GS-R. The only difference is, instead of just swapping all of the gauges over to the GS-R housing, I also swapped the mileage counter as well, so I would have the correct mileage. It's not perfect, but my speedometer read five miles over w...
