hey guys i know i havent posted in a while but id like to share this video from the last track day..ive been super busy with family and finances so i havent been able to do much to the car...i did however fix a problem i found with voltage to the fuel pump and was able to take a total of a little more than 150lbs of the car and driver..apparently it worked because the car really performed great as i was able to drop 6sec off my previous best lap time at this track.

so heres a video from my sunday session that i ran my fastest time of 1:47.5
im chasing a new boss 302r spec race car and a modified z06 both on hoosiers...the boss was sick..this wasnt like my buddys street car youve seen me chase before but a turnkey racer from ford..gutted..caged..big aero ect..super bitching car that i would love to own....now id love to tell you guys the corolla blew past these to track beasts like it was nothing but thats not the case..i made up ground in the corners but couldnt overcome the two hundred or so horsepower deficit i was faced in the straights ,nor the superior traction that hoosiers afford.....but im sure they noticed the little white toyota that wouldnt dissapear



so it looks like i really need a gt wing to get more speed and stability in the high speed corners and if i could afford a $1000 set of hoosier slicks i could drop even more time...but for now im happy to just improve every time i go to the track and fill the rearveiw mirror of cars that cost four times as much as little toyota....thanks for watching...comments are welcome

The video was great Josh! :tu: I enjoyed seeing you catch both of those high powered cars at nearly every corner. Great job my friend.

Wow, Josh. Way to stick it to those cars in the corners! I wonder what they thought of that little white car that wouldn't disappear.
