I try to get out to our local tracks twice a year - Pacific raceways and The Ridge. I like having the goal of track performance as a target as I install parts or modify the car. Next project is to install Opentracker's roller idler arm kit and up the caster to 5 degrees.

Money you enjoy wasting is NOT wasted money... unless your wife finds out.
