Default Testing the sedan out at the track

Took the car out for a track day at buttonwillow raceway. Thanks to the guys at RedZone Performance once again for getting the car ready for the day.

They tuned the new K24 at 236whp with 190ft lbs of torque. For now it has stock type S cams, R manifold and R throttle body which all will be replaced soon. Last minute we decided to switch out the clutch, we used a Competition stage2. Thanks again Guys for always being there to get the car ready!

I am also running the NEW Function and Form Type Two suspension. We installed them a couple of weeks ago and took this as an opportunity to really test them out. They are definitely a step or two up from the old already great type II's. Without any tunning and I believer 12k front and 8K rear it handled great!

Keep in mind this is only my second track day so I definitely need a whole lot more seat time to use the car at it's full potential. The track was configuration #13 clockwise for the day. My best time out of 2 sessions with 10 laps total was a 2:20 gradually getting better throughout the laps.

unfortunately I broke another axle at the end of the second session. I know I know I'm probably gonna switch to the EKK2 mounts and hopefully stop the axle problem I keep having.

ok enough blabbing on with the pics!

Started the day on the trailer

The track configuration


She sat broken at the end of the day



These are all the pics provided by the Track photographer




















The Lexus that spun out at the end of this turn







I had a blast hanging out with everyone that was there Saturday!

Here's a couple of clips I managed to upload so far.


Heres another Vid, this one is where the Lexus(I think thats what it is) Spun out right in front of me going into the Esses.


and the broken axle video

Thanks Fellas. Hopefully next time out will be better, I want to try other tracks and maybe compete after I get more seat time.

Thanks. Why surprized? 17x8 NT-03's(belong to Jeremy RedZone) with 215-40 Falken Azenis.

the car handled great, if you are refering to the size. I dont think it would have handled near as good on 15's or 16's.
