The ft. meyers events held by the gulf coast auto crossers are always fantastic.

Show up on saturday before 9:00am and you can participate in the novice program. This is best because you get plenty of runs while most people on the test and tune course spend most of the day picking ass.

visit www.gulfcoastautocrossers.com for more info.

if anyone wants we can schedule it so we can all drive down together. Last time i was there it got a little confusing.

for everyone my names john and i was at the last FSF event. I got third place in the white 200sx se-r. Just for introductions sake.

Well hope to see everyone there!

god damn eric! consider me extremely jealous!

is that the gsr tranny? and i guess the bottomend and cams are
a good idea considering your already in street modified! Your gonna need to grab a whole lot more asphalt with that 40hp or more so those tires are almost a must but the diff. will help alot too!

what tires are you gonna go with?

its a new type r tranny with factory diff and higher final drive ratio so i can rip through gears faster! for tires i am considering staying with 14 inch or a going 15 inch so i can get a 7 inch wide rim to put on atleast 205s maybey 225s but for sure it will be on spare set of rims so i dont wear them out fast! any suggestions? i know if i get spare set of 14s i will try to put 205s on them i just dont want the side wall to roll over! peace man eric

I was looking at 15inch racing tires the other day.
Hoosier (i think) makes a 225/45/15 racing tire! thats what i would get! Dont worry about the side wall just pump the tires up and with a 45 series tire you shouldnt be that bad. If you want an idea of the size of the sidewall call Wheeltec. They have a tire size ratio thing and can tell you if the sidewall is larger or smaller than another size tire.

but go with the 225 anyway. think about how much more grip youll have! Plus how sweet would it look to have those PAWS under each corner!
