The passenger got ejected. Zampanella was still in the car and burned. the passenger died later, too.

Decades ago we would have been all over picking up 25 horsepower here, and 14 there. Now everybody is like, "That's nothing. What a waste of money. Just bolt on a whipple and do 875 hp." 🤣

Not sure what to tell you. I had to let more air out after the second session and again after the third session, each session I was learning to pick up more speed as I learned the track and listened carefully to the excellent instructor and did everything he said. By the third session he was...

Thanks! I almost forgot what the thread was about . . . lol

Oh, sorry. I guess I should have been careful to communicate better. I am not seeing any fluctuation. None. Zero. The fluctuations I posted where what I expect hypothetically a plus or minus 3 psi issue would be in the real world. My gauge is steady. Needle gives me a reading. I press...

Handling package and Trofeo RS tires or non-HP and P-Zeros?

Are you saying that there is a 6 psi swing in tire pressure? If so, wouldn't I notice that when I check my tire pressure with my handy-dandy cheapo gauge? It shows 35, so I lower, check again, and it shows 40, lower, check again, and it shows, 29? What? So I check again and it shows 35...

Lethal Performance...

If they are wearing evenly and driving well and getting good traction . . . wait. It is December, and you are in Canada . . .

I know you are probably joking, but the GT3RS is one of the best track cars ever developed by any company anywhere in the world. It is way out of my budget, but if I was a ultra-wealthy, I would probably own one.

Ok, so nobody got the joke. I think smurfslayer was referring to Rome and Athens, cities in Georgia, where I live. I have driven in Italy, though.

Are you camping or just parked next to a camper?

Bookmarked for later viewing . . .

On a cold day, a 2 psi increase in my PS4S tires tells me grip will be about normal even on cold asphalt.

Or worse life choices! This is the most expensive car I have ever purchased in my life. I could have purchased a $5k beater and invested the rest! LOL! 🤣

I found this discussion (2jz forum) where an engine builder is mentioning that you can tighten the ring gap a little using E85, but it depends upon boost and power level, as more power = more heat...

The most reliable coolant temp reduction from E85 on track I could find was one poster who stated 3° C (going off memory, so I could be wrong). Mainly I found lots of speculation, and, like you said, coolant temps just cruising around on the street, which is not particularly relevant to...

I also found a track guy over at TrackMustangs running turbos and seemingly solved the heat issues. I am going to ask him some, but his car is a full on trailered track car with lots and lots of mods, so I am not sure how much information can be useful to my more stock application. There is...

True, but the heat in the chamber and cylinder wall and rings will continue to build over that 20 minutes. It just is not the same as drag racing. E85 will limit the heat build up on the rings. Lower boost will also limit the heat build up (a sort of obvious statement, but, well, there it...

I have driven in Italy, but never in Greece, so I will have to take your word for it. Generally speaking, in Europe drivers try to get out of the way of faster drivers, especially in German, where I lived for two years. It sort of spoiled me and perhaps drives me a little more crazy in the USA...
