rinse the pollen off
i feel bad for the guys that have had rough experience i'm grateful my local dealer has been nothing but great to work. always have parts, and their resident "supra tech" is a great guy and always gets my car right i would trust almost any job in his hands. (it helps the dealer is part of massive auto group and bmw is next door with the same ownership)Yeah nice story, still wouldn’t trust any Toyota dealership to work on this car tho
A lot of the autocross courses can vary in length/distance from start to finish depending on the size of the area that you have to work with. I won't ever argue that you'll really come close to what you'd get to experience on a track however.track vs autocross, in terms of fun per dollar, is way different in my mind.
autocross is significantly cheaper, but most of your day is spent standing around and watching other people drive and moving cones back. you get 3-6 runs, just under a minute apiece. if you're lucky, the course will let you go WOT 3 times per run.
trackday, you get roughly an hour of going WOT to hard on the brakes and back again.
Let me know when you're going to Autobahn, that's my "home" track. If work permits I'll join you all.A lot of the autocross courses can vary in length/distance from start to finish depending on the size of the area that you have to work with.

I've done 1 autocross session on what I would consider a mild length/distance. I plan to go to the autobahn country club in Chicago with my buddy this September and that will be my first actual track experience which I'm greatly looking forward to. Then I'll be able to have a good apples to apples comparison first hand.
I can't say anything bad about the autocross weekend I had though. It was an absolute blast. One plus IMO was the first day was perfect weather and nice and dry. Second day had some rain so it was a real eye opener as to what a vehicle is still capable of in a little bit of rain as long as you aren't hitting big puddles or anything anyway. I do know the track day is going to be much more expensive than any autocross weekend though which is a huge factor for a lot of people.
We plan on going the very end of September I believe. I will make a note to keep you posted once we both know for sure though. Would be great to meet fellow forum members.Let me know when you're going to Autobahn, that's my "home" track. If work permits I'll join you all.
Is it the NASA event that they're having there or are you going through someone else?We plan on going the very end of September I believe. I will make a note to keep you posted once we both know for sure though. Would be great to meet fellow forum members.
My aunt and uncle actually live less than 10 miles from the track so that's where we will be crashing since we're coming from so far away. The dates were also supposed to fall on a weekend as well.

This is useful.LOL. All good. Take a look at this sheet and if you have anything good to add (codes you have confirmed as working), please feel free to add them.
Does anyone know what this box is between the woofers? It has batteries in it. ??????Finally getting to upgrading the horrible stock installation of the Subwoofers.
Lots of dampening materials added so far and currently waiting on my 2" port tubes to arrive to allow these woofers to "breathe".
It's actually a full replica version of the Varis kitWhat lip kit is that? Looks amazing with the wheels!
