Last week I went to a track event at the Miller Motorsports Park, and man it was fun.
this was a UT mustang club event & there was 42 cars there - most were 05 and newer, and there were 5 Sheby GT500 KR's there!

My car did pretty good! it was a good time.
We had a basics class, slow lap, 4 practice laps, and 2 timed laps. then they served us dinner at the club house. this was on half track, just over 2 miles long.
My car really did well, with the gearing and the turbo, I hardly had to take it out of third. hard corner to 85mph, all 3rd gear :headbang:

I've got some vid on my bro in law's camera, I just need to figure how to get it off there and posted.

just wanted to post up and say - It's ABOUT TIME I put all these parts to the test!

I'll bet that was a blast. I'm 15 min from pocono raceway but IDK open track days are freaking $$$ so I gotta stick to the 1/4mi stuff.

That would be fun Rep!
if I come to So Cal, will you come to SLC to run at the Miller park?!


Thanks Onyx.


I hear ya ram. this one was 100 bucks, but normally if you just show up and pay it's like 300.
our local mustang club worked out a deal where we can get open track 1x per month for 20 bucks. I'm all over that!

that's an awesome deal, I need to find a club like that! I'd love to try an open track day at least once. You should rig up a camera mount next time you go.

Kinda early. I'm gearing up for Buttonwillow with NASA a few weeks after that, so I doubt that could make it to that one. Let me know if there is anything later.
