A few weeks back I expressed !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! . Well that day came and went. Car performed great (except that lifters started ticking as a result of the struggling wet sump, but that went away after cooling down), tires are chewed up and I lost some body weight in sweat. But hey, I had one hell of a time and the instructors showed me some awesome techniques.

I drove home with no issues ether. :)

Do I see a Miata setting up to overtake a C7?

That Miata was boosted and very quick. Not sure if it was quicker than the C7 though since the C7 was a beast. Those two cars lapped me too many times that day.

Sounds like a great day. Glad there were no issues with your car. Also, I like how you tracked your car with those shiny shiny rims.

edit: took a closer look and just realized that they're stockers, and you just cleaned them WAY better than I ever cleaned my 3ers basket wheels.

Actually they're the hard to find staggered 18" style 5s. Stock style, but not stock size. :)
