Alright fellow F'ers....track season is upon us. I recently put up a poll for a potential track meet @ Atco or E-town on the FB NEISF group (https://www.facebook.com/groups/NEISF), looks like E-town won the vote. The ISF track meet in November 2013 was really fun. Who's in?

Depending on who confirms, I'll set up a meetup location and we can roll in together at 10AM. If we stick together, we can probably end up racing each other, which would be awesome.


Things to bring
- Helmet (snell 2005+)
- $40 for 3 runs, more cash for food, spectators with you
- DR's if you have em

Things NOT to bring
- Lots of gas in your tank
- Spare tire
- Jack

Qtr mile. I did a track meet like this last year, had 5 F's come out. It was fun

I8ABMR

very cool and cooler of you to try to organize.I wish you guys the best with the turn out. I have never been to a drag racing track with my F. Used to do that stuff in college and it got old too quick for me to go back. Road course is more fun, but it also gets old if its always at the same track

Bumping this up, less than 2 weeks away. We got 6 confirmed. If you guys have any braggers who think they can beat you in the 1/4 mile....invite them out! Should be fun.

If I get my suspension and OS Giken LSD installed before the 26th and it ends up being decent weather, I will do my best to drive up and attend.

What we need to get set up...probably for next year, is a group track day. We could look into Summit Point or VIR or ???

Agree. How are you liking the 245/275 setup Garth? If I were to do a track sesh I'd def need new rubber, still on the fence regarding upsizing since it makes the car heavier, but sticking with stock tire sizes makes it lighter, but may not handle as well.

I love the 245/275 combo. I would like to go wider, especially in the front. I'm going to wait an see how much traction I have with the 275s with the OS Giken before I buy different wheels and tires. if 275mm PSS tires provide enough traction in the rear with the OS Giken, I will likely go 275mm all around.

In the PSS, 245/35R19s are only 1 lb heavier than 225/40R19 (23 vs 22). 275/30R19s are 2 lbs heavier than 255/35R19 (26 vs 24). Overall that is a 6 lb weight gain, but you are getting 20mm wider rubber on all 4 corners. I'd take the extra rubber for the slight gain in weight. The 245/275 PSS tires are lighter than the original 225/255 RE050s though.
