Beautiful day, and I had a blast. The 1.3 configuration has a lot going on, tons of elevation change, hairpins, blind crest, and a quick section that had me crowding triple digits. I thought the handling cars were going to kill me, but the big black girl did her thing.

Did my solo checkout in the AM, :)

Had an issue when putting the street tires back on, stud snapped when I was torqueing it down. Yikes!!!

Upon examination, the stud was cracked a little more than halfway through before the final break. I'm kind of partial to keeping the rubber on the car, so I've ordered a complete set of ARP wheel studs. Cha-ching!!!
