Xyster101 Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 Took the car to Mid Ohio 2 weeks ago. Got some great footage driving on the track and also captured my 2 over steers. Had a blast while there. Ran in the HPDE section. My MR2 is running 15psi, larger side mounted inter cooler, SS brake lines, adjustable suspension, poly bushings, and race compound pads. Saw 2 other members up there, Eric in the red cougar and Anson in a black BMW. Video of the over steering (2 times): Blew the inter cooler pipe off at 1:35 here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=znzfOIPjyBo My car and Eric's: http://www.adamdaley.com/max/mr2/0410MidOhio/IMG_1825.jpg Eric http://www.adamdaley.com/max/mr2/0410MidOhio/IMG_1842.jpg http://www.adamdaley.com/max/mr2/0410MidOhio/IMG_1858.JPG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ansonivan Posted April 22, 2010 Report Share Posted April 22, 2010 Love the spin at turn one, it seemed like you had a nice slide going for a second before the rear really came around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CRed05 Posted April 23, 2010 Report Share Posted April 23, 2010 +1 Nice, I want to get out there sometime this year, new suspension stuffs are going on shortly. I'll race your ass on my stock shocks and all seasons Definitely very cool, I am jealous, that looks so much fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xyster101 Posted April 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2010 It is hella fun out there. I know a lot of you guys are into drag racing at the strip, but I am not into only 10 seconds of fun. Here you get to drive your car for 20 minutes at a time as fast as you can and you don't need anything special to do it. A weekend runs about $350 and you get to do it 8 times. If you are new, the group gives you an instructor to ride with you and there are some classroom sessions for about 20 minutes after each race. Here is a video from last year following a civic with some notes about the track and some more over steer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Hx9Ve-mPZY Last year my car was in the shop on the track day (blown turbo) so I took my fiance's stock 5 speed civic with all season tires. Still had a blast with that thing. http://www.adamdaley.com/max/mr2/MidOhio/IMG_1165web1.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
