Default You're car won't be ready by June? Holy cow! I would let you take mine if I could get a ride ;-)

It would be fun to see what my car would do on a track with a good drive and the 275's. I'll have to have Josh take it for a spin someday and see what he thinks in terms of sheer grip. I know he had a way nicer car, but they say there's no substitute for a larger contact patch!

Default Ummmm, not sure about that but I can ask...

what are you willing to pay? The tow out there, the car, etc....won't be cheap if they say yes. Can't hurt to ask though. Last time I was at Miller I rented a Civic 4-door from Hertz. It rocked on the track...side to side!

Oh, and I won't be going out there for the event so I won't be able to "tow" it with the M3.

Default Friggin CEL/limp mode again at Laguna on Monday

The friggin wastegates are staying open when they should be closed..or vice versa. AND I am having more fuel pump issues. I dont want to drive it out to Utah..or have it towed..($$$). I am looking at other options.

This was bad since I was running probably a 1:47 right before it happened.

Default I wonder if I can rent a session from everyone..and therefore get a car that way.

One from John Stahmann in the instructor group...a couple from the NorCal guys coming out...one from you...one from NeilM...etc...etc. That would be eight sessions. :-)
