Thanks for the suggestions! The guys over at Speed SF Track Events, who seem to host the largest collection of Supra's I've seen at any of the California track days (NASA included), recommended B & S Hacienda Auto Body in Pleasanton. I emailed them last night and I had a reply by 8:10am... by...

No, not totaled. The airbag going off automatically totaling a vehicle is just a generality. In the end it's all about cost to repair vs. replacement plus scrap value. And I did take it to the place State Farm suggested and the repair facility told State Farm that they currently don't have...

Soooooo, wrecked the Supra and it needs body work and who knows what else... at least the doors, hood, and hatch open easily with no apparent problems. Caliber Collision in Vacaville say that can't do the aluminum work or figure out how to re-establish power after the battery went dead. Does...

Did you ever find a picture of the inner workings of the stock muffler? I took my stock cat-back section off a couple weeks ago and replaced it with aftermarket. I had the same thoughts of modifying the stock muffler but couldn't find an example. I might open mine up to see the whats inside...

Any updates?

Cool, I'm trying to work with them but they won't friggin' get back to me. Otherwise, I love the way the exhaust sounds when I want it loud, but I'm a little disappointed in the muffle side, it's almost no difference in volume at all. I was hoping I could start it up on early/quite mornings...

I have the exhaust valve rattle too. It's pretty bad on cold start, but also rattles with the valve open at around 3k-3300 rpm. So far Vivid Racing has been no help and isn't communicating much with me. I've been able to get one person on the phone and they said a technical support person...

Resonance at high-speed is usually a problem that is solved by “Road Force Balancing”. I had this exact problem after purchasing a separate set of Michelin’s and wheels for track use. After the install, I took a test run on the hwy and around 90-100mph the car resonated where it previously...

A construction worker passed me in his truck a few weeks ago screaming, “IS THAT A SUPRA!!!” and I just assumed he was a fan. A few days ago, a co-worker did the same thing and I asked if it was a TickTok thing or something. Well, it’s a thing, and here’s a page explaining it...

Yep, the kid who went off track in the Supra was in group 3 with me. It happened during the second afternoon run for group 3. I was in the Silver #21 Supra parked near the fuel pumps. I skipped the first run on both days and showed up at 10:30 each morning. Only "mod" to my car is a set of...

He said a Miata cut him off but witnesses said otherwise. Generally speaking, if your goal is to come home without damaging your car, it is highly unlikely anything will happen because the rules keep everyone safe and from crashing into each other. However, there are plenty of stories of people...

That’s awesome! Sonoma is tons of fun and a little less intimidating due to the lack of blind corners and high speed corners.

Did you go? I never did talk to anyone that looks at this forum much. This Supra owner didn’t have such a good time. He was bragging about all his mods and track time right before this run... that’s him on the phone standing behind the car. I got the impression he was a bit spoiled.

Did you go? I asked around and nobody there seemed to be on this forum. Weather was good both days for all but one of the runs.

Sorry I haven’t gotten around to fulfilling my promise yet. However, since my post the MX+ did set off my alarm after locking the car one time. Also, I need to figure out where I put my CX. I’m a little disappointed in the MX+ anyway. I bought it specifically to get engine telemetry onto my...

When I get a chance I’ll test both my CX and MX+ the way you’ve explained above. In the meantime I can say I’ve used both the same way with my Bimmerlink app... I turn off the car, I remove my iphone 11pro from the mount and simply close my screen only (I do not close any apps), step-out and...

"The NASA HPDE cancellation policy requires a minimum of 7-days notice before your scheduled event. If for any reason you are unable to attend please send us an email at [email protected] call us at 844-477-8772. You will forfeit your complimentary track day if we do not hear from you...

hmm, I didn’t try disconnecting the app, I just unplugged it each time. In the meantime, I purchased the MX+ so I can get engine telemetry sent to my track app, Harry’s Lap Timer. The CX connected every time with zero effort. The MX+ has been a pain in the ass at times but I haven’t spent any...

Unfortunately looks like a high probability of rain on Sunday. It’s still kind of a long-range forecast and could change... hopefully Saturday remains dry.
