I have only attended 1 track event with this car which was at the streets of willow. Even with my flat-spotted tire I managed to run a 1:34.2, I think this is a very good time for a shakedown event. My goal next time at the streets is to break into the 20's. This is one of those set-ups that will continuously evolve, I already have different springs on the way, I plan to go to true r-compound tires, more chasis bracing, ETC.......... My next track event that I plan to attend is the speedventures event at the real willow springs course at the end of january. I hope I see more zilvians at that event though cuz there were pretty much none at the last event I went to.

DreamN · 12-22-2007, 03:20 AM

^ dude you're in reseda? you should come out to our wednesday night 240 meets on saticoy and louise. talk everyone into going to track events. i know as soon as i get my car swapped (going 5 spd) and get some nice tires i'll definitely be doing some track events.

how are those godspeed swaybars holding up? i have them on my car and noticed a difference, but seeing as I don't push my car I can't really give a fair review on them.

oh and it's great to see so many 240 folk interested in grip racing rather than drift.

Thanks for the heads up on the meet, I will definitely stop by soon. I am also sick of everyone doing nothing but drift with their 240's, I mean look at the action shots thread it is 90% drift pics. People don't seem to realize how potent the s-chasis cars are for grip, although it may just be because of the gay ass "drift craze" that is jacking up 240 prices and causing a lot of dumb asses to go ahead and yank the e-brake and crash into an immovable object of some sort. As far as the sway bars go so far I am happy. I am going to get some custom delrin swaybar to frame bushings made up as godspeed is too cheap to provide urethane ones. Honestly though I am just starting to REALLY set up the car, ask me that question again in a few months and I can give a more definitive answer.

jayesone · 12-22-2007, 08:44 PM

What time on Weds nights?

DreamN · 12-22-2007, 09:52 PM

9PM. There's a thread in the regional section about it.

How many of you are going to the drift/grip track day on the 6th? I'm hoping to get my car done for it. It'd be great just to go even if I'm not pushing it or anything. Just to get familiar with the whole experience of driving on the car would be worth the money.

I MAY be able to come for at least Saturday for the open track day with my friends. I wish I could stay the whole weekend as one of my friends might be driving two cars during the event.

I might stop by the big willow event. I just don't have the funds right now to go to the streets on friday.

So maybe I'll stop by for a while and check it out!

Hey, anyone plan to attend this one? A couple of Irvine meet people and I are going to be going.. Registration just opened:
http://www.speedtrialusa.com/streets.html

*Sonic Motor* · 03-22-2008, 01:41 AM

HI everyone...

Sorry if its a little off topic. If it bothers anyone let me know, I can always edit

Is everyone interested in a full track day with just the 240 guys?
I can try to get a day at Streets of Willow later this year(I doubt it) or maybe early next year.

I usually organize the drift events, but I think I can setup something for the 240/Z owners on this forum.

It would be kinda cool to do I guess.

I figure I would need about 40 people to get enough people to have exclusive rental for one whole day. Each person will only need to pay $125

No membership fees or anything. If it goes well, we can do more in the future
