Yesterdays open track day

Here are a couple pics from yesterday. It was so awesome, they repaved the track and it was so smooth. They also widened some of the turns. Lap Battle is May 3rd and will be a timed event.

Looks like a blast. And I really like the red NT03's, they look great on the black.

Thank you. Colored NT-03 wheels were all over the track. There were mine in red, a black STI with orange, a black wrx with blue, and a yellow NSX with green.

Miller Motorsports Park. It is about 30 minutes west of Salt Lake City, Utah. It is one huge track that can be divided into four tracks: full, outer, east, and west. We were on west track yesterday.

Yes I am sponsored by Nitto, the NT-01 is awesome 235/40r18. I am also sponsored by Homeworx, NOS energy drinks, Munoa Performance, and Enkei did give me a better than cost on wheels (it probably helped that it is my 4th set of Enkei wheels).

Looks great out there. That's my dream rim, on NT-01s of course. More info on rim if you would please? Pics, etc. whatever you have.

How does the tire size you have compare to stock? My 245/45-17s are slightly bigger than stock (O.D.) and I want to go slightly smaller next time around (probably 235/40-17) until I'm rocking NT03+M. It's THE next rim I buy.

Thanks.

Here is a side pic. The wheels are 18x8.5 +38 offset, 235/40r18 Nitto NT-01. Last year I ran the 17x8 +35 Enkei RPF-1 with 235/40r17 NT-01 for the track. For the street I ran 235/45r17 NT-555.

Nice, that track is massive as I've seen on t.v. Isn't it something like 4+ miles for the full course?? I'd love to run on a track that size.

This was one of the first open track days, no timing. First weekend in May is Lap Battle which will be a timed event with awards.
