Finally had the opportunity to give my gf a ride along! at Watkins Glen no less! She had been on track once before with an instructor in a miata, but they struggled to get clean laps in advanced class with much quicker cars passing constantly (miata life lol.) Time to give her the full track day experience in my brz!!

I just wanted to thank Ms. Hats for giving this a shot and demonstrating a lot of trust. For all of us who have significant others, even if we only go 5/10ths, it makes it infinitely more fun to enjoy a hobby with our better halves along. :bow:

Fantastic driving as always. Quick hands entering the boot. Reminds me of the first time my wife rode with me. She was super chill and comfortable in my GT3 Cup, but more nervous in the street GT3. The cage, containment seat and 6 point harness helped to relax her even though the pace was dramatically faster in the Cup. Towards the end of the ride she was studying my inputs planning to jump in the driver seat one day.

I have a question about your ethanol kit. If I put an ethanol kit on my FR-S can I still use 92 octane or would I become married to e85?

@dadhats 3 ай бұрын

I'm tuned on ecutek which let's you run multiple tunes that you can swap to. I have an e85 tune and a 93 tune. or you could get a flex fuel kit and let the ECU automatically compensate for whatever mix of gas/ethanol you put in the tank

@jonathanbirst3306 3 ай бұрын

@@dadhats I would probably have to go the flex fuel route. It's pretty had to get E85 where I live so it would mostly a track/autocross day kinda thing

Would you do the TEIN mono racing coilovers again at 8/8 or would you pick a different combo like 10/10 or 10/12?

@dadhats Ай бұрын

for exclusive track use I would do 10/10 if your car is built similarly to mine. the 8/8 just leans just a tad more than I would like. if you want extra rotation or have a ton of downforce I'd go 10/12
