Yay we called it haha. Limp mode ftl.
Yup. Just sucks that it happened at the beginning of the race.

Dude if you roll out from Oklahoma just to hit Button I'll pay for your track day. Shit would be legit.
I'll pay for Kong's transponder if he rolls out.

i love that accord man! i think i was looking at those pictures on facebook at work :thumbs up na1 battle ftw
I love the Spoon CL7. Makes me want to get one. You have to go to Buttonwillow with us Dylan. Never thought I would be able to keep up with an NSX.

I am plannng on attending the ITR expo next year. But Cali sounds good too. Let's see one free day at buttonwillow(all paused for) or threes days surronded by type Rs. This is a hard decision. Which should do?

Just google mapped the distance to buttonwillow and it was 1578 miles and 21 plus hours of driving. Going to have to trailer my car there.

i would want a hotel after driving all that way. But camping isn't out of the question. You have any idea how much it would be to rent out the track? If we can get some guys involved, that is what we should do. what does everyone think? Maybe we should make it availble to all street cars.

in all 100% honesty do you think 205/40/16 zr rated tires will do well out there? and is there like n00b status brackets?

Like $300 for a two-dayer. Plus hotel unless you guys wanna camp :lol:
I'd want to stay at a motel. Red Roof Inn FTW!

I think we would have to get at least 15 people to go. If we get 15 "for sure" people, we would have to pay around $200/person for a one-day event.

I would go with 205/45/16 or 215/45/16. I would opt for an extreme summer tire. Here are some that I would recommend:

Bridgeston RE-11
Dunlop Star Spec
Hankook RS-3
Nitto NT05
Toyo R1R
Yokohama AD08

There are probably a couple that I left out.
