Had a great day at Laguna Seca, good fun, good people, nothing broken.







and the owner of R-Crew Racing here in San Francisco, his EK is a beast!
 
yeah, 3rd photo is at the corkscrew. when coming up the hill and through your braking area, you dont see the other side of it. its like going off a cliff, just aim for the oak tree and youll hit your spots. the Gs are pretty crazy, you feel them in every axis. just dont want to have the "oh ****" moment like my friend here had. whats worse about that is corner marshals didnt show any yellows.

haha nvm, saw the yellow right at the top at the entrance of the corkscrew.
 
Sounds awesome and pretty scary. Would love to see what an ek9 could do round there. The video is pretty mental. Your friend must have had some quick reactions, you can't see a thing until the last second!
 
Awsome! The corkscrew looks so much steeper than on forza aha
 
Love that track on gt5 lol shame I'll never get round it for real.
Corkscrew looks more like a cliff from that pic, any videos? Seen your go pro on the bonnet so where's our video? Lol
 
Nice pics mate, looks like a cool circuit to be racing on :))
 
Love that track on the xbox, would be a dream to get to drive my EK trackcar on it!

Your car looks greatm whats the spec?

The guy in the silver EK looks like he is sitting on the floor!
 
Love the Seca on GT, and your car looks very well on it!
 
Thanks for the comments guys. My car has a stock ITR long block. The tranny was a 96 ITR, but I swapped out the gears for ATS, 1-5 close ratio. Suspension is all spherical bearings, Koni race w/ground controls. 600lbs in the front and 700lbs out back. Sway bars are stock CTR. Brakes are Alcon B-Type calipers w/300mm disks, stock size disks in the back. Also have 15x8 Volk TE-37SL +25 and Toyo R888.

As for videos, I'll post up a link. Haven't had a chance to go through them yet.
 
The last photo is actually Midori Green, may have been called something else in other markets. Has a built K24 (285whp), JRZ Suspension and similar brakes to mine. He is a pretty short guy, but he likes to sit practically on the floor.
 
I know that car! Nice to meet ya!

Our suspension setups are very similar...the R-Crew way.
