haha I freaking KNEW i saw a C32! I was the one that passed you going the opposite way just behind a bright yellow Mach 1.

that beginning side(for me) sucked ***** with the wet road and fog but good god the other die was beautiful and with the new pavement... chit I definitely destroyed my tires =)


Oh yeah and... yeah MB people suck ***** at flaking.. or just not wanting to drive their cars. tThe T1Rs worked fantastic for me, we were driving farrrr too fast but it held like a champ

yeah i knew it was you guys when i saw all those different cars riding together. It was pretty cool to pass you guys on the way down. I like the subies that was rolling with you.

for me, i'm still trying to learn to drive rwd on the corners. I gotta practice more of my throttle control and fading. I like ach better since you can let her open on the straights versus gmr.

does your 32 have the sport shifter.. or w/e they call being able to manually shift through the gears? I couldnt happen to see you fighting the auto trans through some of those turns. I seemed to stay mostly in 3rd (occationally going to 2nd in the really tight stuff or 4th in the straights)... though 13mpg was the result =)

yeah i have the manual shift option where it'll stay in the gear you select. I used it on the down hill since the supercharger was disabled by the limp mode of the ecu. I mostly stay in 3rd sometimes 4th in the higher speed parts.

When i had the code3 pulley i just left it in D since i had so much low end torque no matter which gear i was in. I still got 20mpg =). I wasnt really pushing it though, until i learn more throttle control.

on the down hill where you hear the tires screeching it was cuz i braked too late into a turn and i was understeering and got it back with more throttle to the rear.
