Chicago isnt the problem - Northwestern Indiana is. Instead of rotting on 80/94, cut over on us6 or us30. Joliet is far enough south to make it worth the bypass.
Damn!! I would love to be doing this event with you guys. Time just won't permit it right now.
I did the Summit Point event last weekend and had a blast!! Three of us coupled the FATT on Friday together with the SVTOA event Saturday and Sunday. With very questionable weather predictions throughout the it looked like we could have been in for a lot of wet stuff. But other than some cold weather through most of the day Friday and a brief shower Saturday and Sunday the weather was excellant. I hope you guys have the same luck this weekend.
On a side note my first track time with the T2R diff and StopTech brakes couldn't have had better results. The brakes were flawless and the T2R never missed a beat. Both tracks we ran had off camber turns that would have given the stock diff all kinds of fits keeping the inside tire from spinning. You can't even tell the T2R is there except for the power always being at the tire with the most traction. I ran one wet session on track tires and the rear worked just the same. Money well spent on both the brakes and diff! Now I need to start looking into some safety equipment.
Have a great time everyone that's going! I'll catch you at another event this summer.

We wish you were coming out to play with us as well, Darin. I am looking forward to meeting you. :rockon:
Next years R meet might be a little closer to home for you, so if the event works out and is agreeable with everyone on the location, You will be there!!!!!!

It's great to hear the mods worked for you. I am curious to see the brake kit that Terry is bringing (I assume it's the same as you have?). If it works, there will be a Brembo caliper setup for sale.
Talk to ya monday, I am leavin for the track. :banana: :banana:

Does anyone have any video or photos of this event that are willing to share?
Here's a link to my web site that has videos from Auto-Bahn 2005 and 2006.
Autobahn Country Club

Thanks for the link, looking through your site I found my car in the background behind ya'll on the left. Thats my car and my uncles friend Paul who still owns the blue Lightning.
First and only thing I've ever found for the 9k miles of tracking he has done. I'll continue to search I'm bound to come across something else
