Thanks for sharing the video! I have already started modding same as you as you but went with Pedders instead of Pfadt. Waiting for my sway bars and then some track days! One question, what was your rear tire pressure set at? Noticed the slight oversteer coming out if that one corner.

Freaken awesome video. I can not wait to find me a track to have as much fun.

Can you compare the factory Goodyears to your Michelin Pilot Super Sports? I was contemplating purchasing the Michelins. thanks

AWESOME!! That looked like a blast and you took those curves and straights at good speeds. Your car handles very well with the upgrades you have done. What track is this? Thanks for posting the video.

Nice run, clean passes. Looked as good as a Bugatti Veyron @ $2.45M less cost, first class laps.

I run in the advanced group and posted the 2nd fastest lap of the day. If you track your car, you need to install the above mods, you will NOT regret it.

Middle Middle is where it's at with the Pfadt ZL spec bars!

That looks like a lot of fun! And I am glad that I wasn't the only one thinking that I heard voices! I just figured you were talking to yourself!

Nice video!
