My car was sliding all over the place last night. It felt really different than last time. Maybe the rim cleaner I used before going to the track got absorbed by the tires somehow making it slippery? I can't figure it out. I was sideways on the warm up lap. I didn't even feel confident to get on the gas much coming out of the corners or braking while going into them. That's why my line was all wack. I can't believe I still ran a 23 or whatever after almost coming to a complete stop in turn 1. I was hoping to better my 20.67 from last time. Maybe next time.

That was most definitely a LS/Vtec Turbo hatch that runs at VIR on a normal basis

And my car broke

its a built ls/vtec out of the yellow R. it was a type r but not anymore, the old motor i think was in the blue DA that blew up the other week. it came out when brady put the k series into his car. and thats kelems(sp?) old turbo kit

The car is built with random parts from all the other cars Brady has built and then taken apart.

i dunno, i did alot better last year with new Goodrich G-foce KDW tires in the turns than i did this year on bald michelin pilots. on these bald tires i would burn the tires off on the launch and my cars all wheel drive, it doesnt turn worth a damn either it just pushes towards the wall
