93R #58 at the Track

A group of us from Idaho rented the track in Spokane a week ago Monday. We had a great time! I got over 250 miles of track time in the Cobra, well over 100 laps on the 2.25 mile track. I re-geared the car this summer to 3.55's (had 3.73 before). I have 0.8 OD in the T5, I still hit redline in 5th gear on the straight, at well over 140. Here are some pics from the day, see them all here - http://s1281.photobucket.com/user/drkhr ... en%20Track

Nice action shots! How did the old '93 compare to the '95 and 2000R's on the track?

Thanks Guys, I was hoping you would like them. I need to get on here more. I'm on a PC so much at work that when I get home I don’t want to go near one! I have a tablet now so surfing is a bit easier.

I like pic #4 best too. One of the guys running (Black SRT) brought his daughter up. She shot all the photos for us, ~5000 total.

Being as the only thing left stock on the car is the body (all but the hood) it does really well on the track. The HP to weight ratio makes it almost as fast as my buddies 2000R, which is not stock either (mine has a 347 and MM suspension). To start the day he left me behind, by the end of the day our lap times where about the same (he is a better/more experienced driver than I am). He was the fastest on the track, then the GTR then me. The other 10 guys got passed a lot :smile: . Just takes more practice. His Dad has the 95R (#4 Rosie Diner Car / Joker). It is not stock either (393 cu in I think) but does pretty good for a more novice driver.

Does looks like a blast, that last picture really shows the tire roll. Must have had some speed hitting that corner?

Good eye, notice the left front too :shock:

If any of you guys live in the northwest and want to try it, we have 5 days picked out for next year. We plan to run in Spokane again, Oregon Raceway Park and Reno. We love corrupting newbies!

When are you guys going to be in Reno (I'm assuming Fernley Raceway). I'll make sure I'm free that day.

That would be great. I let you know when the date is finalized. I do know it will be on a Monday as they are the cheapest days to rent the track.
