  1. First AutoX with the Supra

    Thanks for that suggestion. You're right about the tire changing. Hey, I'm an old dude and I don't need the extra workout! And you are also right about my not needing to be the fastest guy out there. I'm not quite able to run with the youngsters any more. But I do try!
  2. First AutoX with the Supra

    FLtrackdays and I are already friends. But he doesn't do autoX. I'm just stating what I did last weekend and would like to hear from others who do autoX with a Supra. Especially in the B Street class.
  3. First AutoX with the Supra

    I just did my first autoX with the Supra last weekend. I haven't run an autoX over the last 2 or 3 years. Before that I ran 5 to 9 events a year over 6 years in a 2021 Miata and a 2019 Toyota 86 and a 2012 Miata. I don't claim to be a very good driver at autoX. And I did this event as a kind of...
  4. IMSA Racing

    I'm in SW Florida (Cape Coral). I've been here 25 years. I lined in Columbus for about 25 years before that (big Columbus Chill fan) and was born, raised and lived near Detroit for 30 years before that. I raced SCCA from 1980 thru 1997. I've been doing autoX and a few track days since I moved to...
  5. Picked up 2025 6MT with all TRD parts

    Nice looking car. What are your plans for it? Any autoX or track days in Thailand? I just got mine 2025 in January and I'll do my first autoX with it this weekend.
  6. Trunk/Cabin Sound Barrier

    My neighbor has a loud Harley and leaves for work every nice day at 6:20am. He starts it up and drives away as quietly as he can (HA!) But my wife and I just turn and look at each other and say,"It must be 6:20. Days with shakey weather, he drives his Audi A6 to work. I'm OK with it either way...
  7. Official NITRO YELLOW Supra Club Thread

    You mean if the vents were red? Actually, I'd like them better if they were/are real vents and I could light them up from the insider with a dim red glow from some LED lighting!

    Strych9 said: "Man... The 25 (and test #23) was the car I was on with RLL. I miss it like you can't imagine." That do you mean by being on that car? You worked and crewed for RLL? BTW, I lived in Columbus for 20+ years before I moved to SW Florida in 1999. So I've been a RLL fan for a long...
  9. IMSA Racing

    I enjoy IMSA a lot, but F1 and IndyCar ar my real passions. The balance of power in IMSA makes for good racing, but it's so artificial and they keep changing it. So you are at the whim of the IMSA gods as to whether or not your brand will be competitive. I've done a few Daytona 25 Hour races...
  10. Official NITRO YELLOW Supra Club Thread

    I love the different vents in the side of the hood. The ones on top of the hood are a bit much for me, but they look OK if you are doing track days and looking for that race car image.

    Max never gives an inch to any other driver, and he feels that's the way F1 should be. But when anybody else fails to give him room (after all, he is the current driving champion) he gets all pissy and calls in in over the radio that 'so and so' cut him off, or bumped into him... or whatever...
  12. Formula 1 Talk

    I said nobody else is even close to 12 points. That's not made up, that's a fact. I wasn't talking history, I'm talking about current status. Magnussen doesn't even drive in F1 anymore. So he really doesn't count as far as current point levels stand. But you go ahead and call me out all you want.
  13. Formula 1 Talk

    Has he really? He has points on his license from 5 other 'errors' in just the past 12 months! Nobody else is even close to having been penalized that much or that often. Lando has only one penalty and it's 3 points just for not slowing down at a double yellow flag. He didn't intentionally hit...
  14. Trunk/Cabin Sound Barrier

    Excellent info and suggestions. Thanks!
  15. Formula 1 Talk

    All I have to say is Oscar drove a great race. Lando did as well... except in the first turn. Charles made the best of Max's tire troubles at the end. So did George, but the call by the Red Bull team to let George back through was premature... and according to the stewards, he wouldn't have been...
  16. Thinking about tracking?

    Anybody know who to contact about the July NASA track day at Barber Motorsports Park? I'm signed up and have most everything I need. I just want to see if there is anything they can tell me about how the event will run, will they have helmets to rent (mine autoX is an old 2010 Snell). I drove...
  17. Trunk/Cabin Sound Barrier

    That's an interesting idea. I can't say that I really noticed the road noise in my 2025 Supra. It's so much quieter than my 2021 Miata RFB was. But I do kind of like the idea of making the back area separate from the cabin. Let us know how well you think this works.
  18. Formula 1 Talk

    Yes, you can park along the Causeway. I Photoshop out the posts and rope that line the parking area. I'm always looking for cool places to take photos... and if I can include the Supra, all the better! I hope they have a photographer at Barber when I go for my track day. I understand how you...

  20. What did you do to your Supra today?

    Probably true... that's why I don't even like putting numbers on mine for track days or autoX.
