Just got back from Willow Springs Track day
It was awesome!!! So much fun to run it wide open w/o worrying about getting a ticket. I hit 134 MPH end of front straight/ 126 end of back straight / 112 Long Sweeping turn 8-9.

Sport mode the best. Oil temp got up to 260 - kinda freaked me out a little. No brake fade at all. Wore out rear tires - new ones next week.

All in all - great day.

Yeah, got alot more pics - picture package - $60.00. Anyway, ran against:
SS Camaro - Pulled them down long straight
Mini Cooper - Lets just say...I was faster.
Mustang GT (2011) - I pulled them down the straight. Cornering - C^# was faster too.
Subi WRX - I wast faster down straight - they were quicker in the twisty stuff
Acura - I was faster down straight and held my own in twisty
Corvette - He was 3 mph faster down straight (he hit 137MPH) - We went back and forth in twisty
Porsche Cayman - I blew him away on stright and stayed with him through twisty
Porsche 911 GT2 - I would love to say I beat him...NOT - 148 MPH on straight, and he mopped up everyone on rest of course.

By the way, the pic is of me passing the Porsche Cayman..............
