Awesome stuff!! You’re really carrying awesome speed through 2-4!

thanks! it was def a little sendy on my best lap but we made it work 😅

Honestly i feel you on the traffic thing but for me once i see that’s the case i switch up my mindset really quickly and just focus on doing some racing instead of setting lap times. That way i prevent myself from getting frustrated at being behind someone because really it’s not bad that there’s some traffic it’s just your mindset going in was on setting lap times. You gotta let that go real quick lol

I could be down! the short answer is I wanted to go faster than was safe on back roads so did a little googling and went to my first track day 🤙

The Toyota motors in the Elise kinda suck... It would be decent with a k20 motor but then your another $10k into the car... Also the short wheel base makes them a handful with no notice. The FRS/BRZ is a great machine.

Stock FRS/86 wheels are not wide enough.

Hey man, we talked once before but right now I’m really trying to figure out where I want to take the car, I’d love to be able to track the car like you do and everything just mainly wondering what you’re reason is for not adding boost, thanks! Love the content

@dadhats 26 күн бұрын

the main reason is cost but also reliability and if I ever wanted to compete it would cause a lot of issues for classing. you can expect to pay at least 6-8k for a reputable turbo kit + labor + the increased cost of consumables. I def prefer spending my money on seat time but maybe one day I'll change it up

@JoshuaKelsey-di5cv 25 күн бұрын

@@dadhats hmm ok yea those are really good points, how are u getting seat time right now? Are you part of club or what does the cost of a track day usually cost? Thanks also for your help!

@dadhats 25 күн бұрын

@@JoshuaKelsey-di5cv not currently part of any club no. my go to has been running with track night and they usually cost around $200 for 3 sessions, most times they hand out $25 coupons tho. I've also ran with masstuning and netc where you get nearly double the track time but prices range from $300-$330

Not being fast is fine in intermediate. But they should still be able to point people by in a timely fashion. Was it straights-only passing?

Do you like lightning better or Thunderbolt?

I think lightning it's more forgiving and has better flow than thunderbolt imo. also it's much easier for me to compete with high hp cars at lightning for track battles

@@dadhats I probably should have checked there. This will be my first track day in a car at the track in this video actually. When in your journey did you get the oil cooler? I will have the UEL headers and a tune but nothing else major done to the car.

@dadhats 24 күн бұрын

@@timothyryan1972 typically it's recommended right away, I've heard horror stories about ppl blowing their motor on their first track day without the oil cooler. I got away with it for a few track days but don't remember specifically when I got it, you could sort by my oldest videos n check the description. I've been recording ever since my 2nd track day. I also started at Englishtown which doesn't have as many flat out sections, maybe that's why I got away with it for as long as I did
