(Clint, I think I omitted your better times)
I'd love to know what the cars run at BW. Last time out, with a slightly different T2 (the longer, double apex one) I was running 2:10's.

I was running 1:34's at willow (big track, right?) but that was a few years ago and I'm much faster now. I hate big track though...not technical enough.

Havent dont the others, only Streets at Willow, BW and Cal Speedway.
Have fun!

For Buttonwillow #13 CW, any time in the sub 2.00.00 (2 minutes) is pretty fast. Fastest I have been is 1.57.3?? --In a highly moded 350Z-- and a 2.08.1?? in a stock G35 coupe--

For Cal. Speedway infield I ran a 1.10.3?? --fully modded 350z-- and a 1.17.7?? --completely stock G35 coupe on R-compound tires--

For Willow Springs (big track) ran a 1.31.1?? (couple months ago) --In a highly modded 350Z--

For Streets of Willow full course with bowl and chicaine a 1.34.6?? --in a modded g35 coupe-- and a 1.44.?? in a COMPLETELY stock g35 coupe--

My BW times were CCW Guy that runs the timing told me CW is faster. I believe it, although CCW flows better.

Does Cal Speedway ever let the cars run on the banking? the bikes get the front banking and its a riot hitting 160+ into T1.

wa2good-good times!

Yes they do, I have hit over 187 MPH there in a car on the ROVAL (as they call it)

really disappointed no one else wanted to go, but had fun anyway, met some peeps. I got 2: 20:982 on the #13 config. no off-roading even though there were dust clouds everywhere from the over zealous. No crashes either which is always a plus. Hopefully get some more interest at Irwindale...

hey jeff, glad you had fun. i had a blast. it's a pretty technical track that's pretty narrow to boot (hence all the dust clouds)! it was a lot different than seca or willow. anyway, i hate to admit but i offroaded once, right on turn 1 (going CCW). i was a little "over zealous." 2:18.811 was my best. planning any anytime soon? i want to go to the next seca in november.
