    Mine is a deticated racer because I can't register it for the street short of a VIN swap (Craigslist sell gone bad)

    Thanks for the info, who has been running ESP still? I know Charles (ACM) is, but do you know what other users are actively running ESP?

    Hey Scott, what class were you running this season? I assume Street Modified or maybe ESP with the stock turbo housing :p ? Just curious because I'll be running in ESP next season with a dedicated racer and I like your setup for the most part. I'm already pretty set on my setup but that might change before Spring.

    hmm, i see. With my car i want to stiffin it up. i the most chassis flex i think, is the engine firewall area. so i was thinking with my cage, i will run bars through the firewall to the front, so that should stabalize it a bit. I also want to do some aeroengineering, like doing some fender flare work and diffusers. Do you see any room for improvement whippin around corners??

    Hey, I'm going for the same style like your talon. I was wondering do those 10" width wheels really do well for you? Also you say your have 35/65 center diff! that would work well in autocross. thanks! :)

As usual, I was plagued with mechanical issues at the event. On Saturday I only got one timed lap before I had to retire.

Just before this event, I had added that new valve cover with the big vents. One of those vents was routed to my exhaust using a Moroso crankcase evacuation system. Just before this event, I had installed a new valve cover with the big -10AN vents. One of those vents...

Third outing and second lapping day of 2011 for me.

A few minor changes for this event.
  • I cut out part my passenger side fender liner and installed aluminum mesh to promote better air flow through my transmission cooler.

My second outing in the Talon for 2011... and it was August!

After fixing my cracked exhaust manifold and melted oil dip stick, I was ready for action.

The venue for this event was in a rather small & tight parking lot in Truro. That meant a small & tight course, which does not favor my car. It's also somewhat bumpy with lots of big dips. So I wasn't...

I've been slacking on my event reports, so I'll try to catch up.

This event was my first outing in the Talon this season. I had spent the whole preceding Saturday working on the car, trying to finish some stuff up, which spilled over to Sunday morning (details posted here). So I didn't make it to the track until the afternoon sessions.

I arrived, swapped on my brand new...

Final event of the 2010 season. Following the dismal results of the previous event, I wasn't expecting much. My traction issues would still be prevalent due to tire age and ambient temperatures, but it would still be a fun course as it was setup on a 2.5km (1.6 mile) 11 turn road circuit.

This time temperatures were even colder... Like 9°C (48°F) cold and windy to boot. I had on...
