For some reason there tend to be spikes in the logs in that corner instead of nice long sustained results.

Start with Milwaukee SCCA and or WAI (both run at Miller Park) and then get your feet wet with Milwaukee Track Days (SCCA event) at the Milwaukee Mile. All of these events are pretty cheap. Thats what I recommend. Another thing you should do is come up to Road America and do a ride along with me in one of my cars. That way I can give you driving tips and show you the racing line at RA but you need to get some seat time in before you go there.

Tyler don't kid, you know any rides you give will be in the Fiat since the Cobalt hasn't seen a track in years. :P

But yes, for sure think about coming to watch at a Road America event. There is one May 3rd and 4th and another July 21st and 22nd that are great groups to check out.

That would really be a mind ****, you almost bought Justin's cobalt back in the day before you bought the sedan, and then now he buys your cobalt.

I've been doing autox for the past two summers with MSCC (www.madisonsportscarclub.com). Madison area tracks and Miller Park courses are tight, many slalom choices and mostly second gear. High speed can be found with the club events at Blackhawk Farms Raceway too.

So now that Term2 doesn't tune anymore, does anyone know of any good tuners for the LNF? I've got the ZFR and I'll need to be retuned this spring when I get my intercooler and IM spacer put on, but I'm not sure I want to spend the $500 for a dyno tune. I would much rather buy HP tuners and get a remote tune so that I can make small adjustments or log it if I ever need to. I've got another buddy of mine who wants to go in on an HP tuners purchase so that he can get retuned too once he gets a ZFR himself.

ZZP did a decent job the first time, but I'm running super rich to keep the detonation down. So rich that it misses when it's not 60+ degrees out. Small things like that, that I want to change.

I can save you some money if you find someone that will remote tune you.

$500 tune? My dyno tune was $150.
