It wasn't a race, just a track day event. As far as that grinding noise, it's more of a rattle and it's coming from the 3 link suspension...it's been that way for a long time. One of these days I will figure out a way to get rid of it.

The noise seems real bad since the camera is right above the rear diff, but it's not that bad. On the other hand, I'm glad you guys are mentioning it...I need to fix that ****.

The 13b swap sounds cool, or maybe a turbo?
I've been on Toyo RA-1 tires for the last two events, they are nice! Track days are fun, all you guys should try to make it out there. Around here we're allowed to take passengers so they can see what it's like. If nothing else just go to get some ride time.

Thanks man. Actually I have been running on a set of 225-45-15 RA-1's, but not shaved. I end up having to rotate them (front to back) a few times to get them to wear well, but except for really hot days (+90 F) and/or long sessions (+25 minutes) I don't have any problems with them getting too hot from not being shaved. If you are just starting out I would'nt worry about getting your first set shaved. What's your setup like right now?
