The diff was questionable to begin with so I brought a spare lol. It's the first diff I ever broke I doubt you will. Plus I was drifting so the shock to it is worse than autox I would assume...

But yea, bring fluids and hose clamps and tools and shit. You never know. If you do break something, LMK, I have tons of spare parts lying around and have contacts for anything else. Where in MD are you?

all right that makes me feel better!

i am in Belcamp, MD (google maps is your friend).

I hope i don't break anything, because i have to drive home, so i won't be pushing too hard (at first), but i will bring as much stuff as i can. Is there a place to safely put it while i am racing?

wow thats far away from summit.

Theres a staging area on the side of the skid pad where you can paddock. It's in sight of the track so no one will steal your stuff. Summit is very good about things like that. Racer's code too ya know?

well two hours ain't bad.

good that there's a place to put stuff. I am sure my Brother will be able to watch our stuff since we are in different classes and won't be racing at the same time i guess...

I've never heard of anyone stealing shit from anyone else at summit. It's really low... I've had a few ppl borrow tools without asking but they always give it back. But then again, the drift crowd is about 90% ppl you know and could track down...

That is a good thing to know. thanks!

been to Summit Pt for track events many many times with Porsche, BMW and whatever clubs... never had any issues. Noone touches your stuff.

What do you mean by 'work'? Any tire will work, your not going to rip it off the wheel or anything.

My 195/60/14 Azenis are stiffer overall then my 205/45/16 General UHP's. They grip better, they roll less, etc. And of course my 205/55/14 V710 r-comps are probably 10 times stiffer then my Azenis.

The actual tire is much more important then the size.

Thanks for the info!! it looks like i will be rockin' the stock weaves to the track.... it doesn't look like i will be getting hubcentric rings in time for the BBS RKs...

(yeah i know funny time to reply to this particular post)
