Golden Hour @ Thunderhill East S2000

Always a fun time when the sun is in your eyes for t3, t5, and t8. Fighting for grip on 5 day old a052’s but was still able to be within 2 seconds of my PB with 90 degree weather. Thanks for the fun chase Tony :D (red s2000)

[@janessam9531]

were you at laguna seca recently? I think I saw your car 2 days ago!

[@jakem8466]

I was not unfortunately. Haven’t gone to many track days this summer but should be out there again in September!

[@jasonwang3413]

Great stuff! I’m in the process of making my new (to me)2006 more track focused. Can I ask what you have done and if there’s anything you would do differently?

[@jakem8466]

its a long list of mods but in short: - HKS SP coilovers - 17x9.5 ZE40's w/ Nankang CR1 Square - mild aero - misc suspension mods - stoptech front bbk Wouldnt have done it differently. Still building as I have Penske suspension and a Cusco diff waiting to go in. Best advice is start tracking stock with good tires, brakes and fluids to really learn this car

[@jasonwang3413]

@@jakem8466 thx! Maybe I’ll see you out there one of these days. So far, I have kwv3, and some rs4 on stock wheels with some minor brake upgrades. Also did the roll bar and seats for safety. What camber are you running? Did you need to replace ball joints to achieve those settings?

[@jakem8466]

@@jasonwang3413 Oh that’s more than enough to start tracking, you’re good! I have -3.5 camber all around. Front upper SPC ball joints were used to attain front camber but luckily ap1’s can get a good amount of rear camber with stock adjustments

[@victormerino1007]

Great driving skills. It seems that the suspension is dialed in. Thanks for sharing!

Peppermint S2K is quick! Great driving also. :D
