thanks. I'll double check next drive. really annoying coming up to someone in the braking zone and the car freaks out

Something I hadn't thought about last time I was at the track. What settings do you disable for HPDE days on track with ptr set to either sport or track 1, Is there a config that will disable the lane keeping and collision avoidance, or do you disable those yourselves before the track day?

Might be just an issue of having a lot of work and insufficient staff. I don't know about Southern California, but up in Central California there is a definite shortage of auto techs. Combine that with difficulty in moving from brand to brand due to having to learn all of the ins and outs of...

Apparently that depends on Cadillac. From what I heard there, Cadillac owns the cars, which is why there aren't a ton like the Corvette school

Not a problem, the implication of my statement is that these will sell well. My presumption is that anything sold as "track focused" will be bought by the back road hooligan crowd whether they need it or not

I can see these being bought just because "If it's better for the track, i can scream on the twisties" and 90% of them never being tracked

Ah hah! I've experienced that, thought I was nuts.

I did all the crazy high speed stuff back in my early 20s. I've got the damaged back and neck to prove it. That's why I have to ride such an upright bike like my Tiger 800

Scouts are fun bikes. I've got a Tiger 800 from 2012. Great bike til I bounced off a toyota corolla because I "came out of nowhere". Helps to avoid motorcycles if you watch what is coming up before you pull into the road

Car: CT4 Auto Track: North Best Lap: 1:38 day 1 (poured day 2) Autocross: 34 something, also in the rain I was in the slow group, so was top of the Auto-x and about middle overall It was fun, got stomach issues on day 2 but squeezed cheeks and drove on. Track was kinda disappointing because...

Posts #7 and 16 look good. #7 shot #2 has the car framed with a disappearing set of lines. Looks great, draws the eye to the car. #16 shot #1 has a great angle, but maybe over expose it a little and play with something like lightroom to bring out some highlights, or get the sun over your...

Granted I got a 4BW, but my dealer threw in a $7k discount. I would still have liked a T-Shirt or a nice mug, but for the 7k I saved, no problem

And since I know nothing about the V8 in the 5BW, it isn't the usual Direct injection tick is it?

Was driving in Tour mode this afternoon. Used the toggle to enable PTM to Dry. Steering firmed up, held revs, supsension got stiff, exhaust got loud. I'm assuming I was now in Track Mode with PTM Dry

Pulled into the local Target parking lot by a guy with a nicely set up Charger. He pulled up and told me “Cool Car, I’ve got a 5 in the same color”. Best I’ve done so far.

I actually haven't been down that route since I was a kid (that was a long time ago). I used to live at the base of 130/Mt Hamilton road in San Jose. Used to run that on my motorcycle all the time.

Don't email them. Call them until you speak to someone.

driver with a floor jack jacks up the front slightly using the elusive jack points, you reach in and put the blocks in place. They go in fairly easily when there's some lifting force applied. It wasn't raining when I did it, but the light in my garage isn't very good

find a safe spot to jack up the front from, remove the block, put it in the trunk. Those are included to ensure that if your car is pulled onto a flatbed (the only way to transport) it will have enough clearance to get onto the truck. There's a long thread on jacking up these cars...

I'm down in Hollister, but I'm interested. I only have Saturdays available to me.
