This is a pretty lame video as it was taken with my DROID cell phone attached to a phone holder suction cupped to the windshield. There is an irritating rattle from the cell phone holder but overall I was happy with the little token from the day. It was better than nothing but no GoPro Camera either. I edited out some expletives when we were stopped by course workers and also when my buddy in the blue Z06 two cars in front of me missed a couple turns. LOL All in all we had a blast on that little lap as we were only supposed to be driving at a snails pace but they didn't really care. We got up to about 60mph or so in a few little bursts. My car was running good and even chirped a little tire on a short burst.

No, I was only at the Grand Prix, Friday and Saturday. I decided early on that I would see plenty of Indy action during practice and time trials during the two days we were there. I'm not a big fan of Indy Racing but this weekend definitely ignited a spark for it. Those cars are so damn incredible.

I like the sounds your car is making. What mufflers did you end up using? Any idea on power levels the engine is kicking out?

Marcus, it did sound great! I'm leaving the Magnaflows on it. I think that just installing the factory resonator took care of a lot of droning that I was getting. Additionally, I think with the transmission shifting properly it made a huge difference in sound as well.

So, now I have a nice pair of factory LT1 mufflers that I'll hold onto until I either choose to use them or if someone comes along and wants to take them off of me for their setup.
