Brought the car out of the garage for the first time yesterday in about a month. Swapped out the tires and loaded it directly on the trailer and took it to a track day rented by a local site Horsepower Junkies. There were some great cars there and I spent most of my time just watching.

I made 2 passes the whole day. First pass as a 10.86 @ 127.84 with a 1.59 60 foot time and a 6.93 @ 103 in the 1/8 mile. The second pass was a 10.83 at 128.13 with a 1.58 60 and a 6.97 at 100.65 in the 1/8. The second pass felt really good and I thought it would be a new best, but the bottle was a little too cold and bottle pressure was down.

Here's a video of the second pass with a naaasty burnout for the camera
YouTube

Fun outing and the car performed flawlessly again and was the only C4 out of 200+ cars...representing the C4 generation!

I am meeting some friends and heading to the local track in just a few minutes. But I won't get anywhere near those times, but it will be fun no matter what. It is just an old 1/8th mile track that used to be 1/4 mile.

DA was good. +400 for most of the day and +200 towards the end. When I first checked at 9am before heading to the track, the DA was -1,500. I wish it had stayed that way...

I hadn't even paid attention to my reaction time on that pass until Josh pointed it out today from the video. .501 Near perfect light.
