    Helmet and likely your own food/sunscreen/water.

        Run a soft line for now, just make sure it doesn't get pinched anywhere.

          I'll be the grandpa in the back dude, it's my first time on the track!

          BTW, is there a place you guys meet up before heading out there, or everybody just converge at the track? The E30 is like a jackhammer, so a small break to stretch my legs/kidneys would be nice after a 2 hour drive up

            I will for sure be there! Hopefully the 55°c motorsport thermostat and new oil cooler arrive from VAC quickly so I can be sure the engine temps are staying within reason. Last track day at MSR in texas, the oil temp was climbing to just over 125°c!

              Well, I'm fairly sure I won't be making it to wings this week, but I should have all my parts arrive by Thurs so I can get the car put together and ready to rock on Friday.

              As far as meeting points go, the Boulder area crew usually meets at Starbucks or at Wings, and we met Alex and Brad at McDonalds somewhere around Airport blvd/I-70 if I remember right.

                You're coming to wings. Brent will be there. No excuses.

                I met Ben at the one on I-70 and Quebec (old Stapleton Airport), works well usually...
