The pics of your car on the roval are classic! I love the passing the M6 on the outside pic
Had a blast at SOWS this past weekend also... wasn't really planning to run the Yaris but got talked into it by the organizer and Jkutcha I was running on the S.drives which have a 300 treadwear, they're great street tires and lots of fun in the rain but not really meant for track duty. They didn't overheat as bad as Jkutchas tires, but I couldn't really drive the car the way I wanted since I was trying to save the tires. A lot of people are still surprised by how quick the Yaris is mostly stock. All I had on my car was the Silkroad coilovers and partly stripped interior. As for the other cars, Alex in the Super 7 will easily be in the 1:17-1:19 range once he gets the car and engine tuned and sorted. He only ran the very first session of the day (2 clean laps) and FTD at 1:23.3! That car has lots more potential. Some times for reference: 1:23.2 FTD Alex P. in Locost Super 7 with 4AGZE turbo on Toyo 888's 1:24.7 Taka in turbo AE86 with Toyo 888's 1:26 Turbo race miata 1:29 stock GTR 1:30 Turbo AW11 on Kumho V710 1:31 Turbo AE86 on RA1's 1:34 20v AE86 on Kumho V710 1:36 Yaris on 195/17 S.drives 1:38 Nissan 370Z (stock press car) 1:39-1:42 most AE86/Miata/240 etc.. on street tires. Alex P. in his Locost Super 7: |
