Post up pictures of your GTO on the track. Whether it be track days, autox, or and actual race. Interested in seeing what everyone has.

Where are your pics? Btw, what size tires are you running? I'm really tempted to get Koseis and some 255/40 all around.
Here are some pics of mine. New pics should be posted soon that include suspension and new wheels

I haven't gotten to he track yet. I am going to wait until I get a seat. I am running 245/45/17 all the way around with no rubbing front or rear. You could easily run 255's all the way around.

Dry Skid Pad + KDW2 = Fail
Wouldn't that be caused by not enough negative camber?

I said I had a ton of pictures...heh
2008 Autox Season - part 1 - Pedders Track II 3/8" drop front, 1/2" drop rear, Hotchkis sways front and rear, Rota P45's and Dunlop Direzza Sport Z1's
Good shot of the Dunlop Z1's...better tires!
I'm pretty sure I 3-wheeled the car for the first time here, mainly because I overshot the turn way too much, but the pointer cone is blocking the bottom of the tire. lol.

Very nice! I really want to get into SCCA autox next year. Currently, I just go to clubs like CVO (Chicago VW Org), Audi Club, Salt Creek Car Club, etc. Mostly smaller clubs. Some follow SCCA rules, but most vehicle specific ones have couple classes for the rest of the makes.
Here are results from last couple autoxes if you care.

Haha. Nice! I too drag raced for about 12 years. Now be honest, wouldn't you like to race 30+ cars instead of only one? How about your race lasting an hour instead of 12 seconds? Plus you could do 150+ mph instead of 108??? Doesn't that sound nice? :bootyshak

Last time I checked, this was the Road Racing section, not the Drag Racing section, Matt.
I say temporary ban for his shenanigans! j/k bud :gr_jest:

Wheels: Kosei K1's in 17" x 8.5" +40mm, they're light for a 1pc cast econo-wheel @ < 17lbs each
Tires: Toyo RA1's in 255/40 @ 4 corners, allows tire rotation from trackday to trackday, less understeer and better throttle-steering...
