Nice! A few friends of mine are pilots. As soon as i get the free time, and my daughter is a little more grown,,, i am going to start training for my fixed wing license. One of my buddies has a Cirrus. The ones with the emergency parachute. Sweet plane.

Slowly started picking up more and more speed in several corners when i severely flat spotted one of my already worn hoosiers. i mean through the corns down to the metal strands, it was nice. Luckily i come prepared with another set of wheel/tires and get the on the car and adjust the pressures accordingly. Go out for one hell of a session without the camera thinking i would put it in for my last session since that was with instructor/advanced combined and i would roll some serious honda's. Well i fried a front rotor because i went down to the rivets of my front RH pads, awesome right? days over, done for the event, only missed one session. Only 2 cars in my group i couldnt keep up with, a K20 powered CRX (245whp and 1800lbs wet), and a 350whp turbo RSX driven by some ex grand-am dusche. Was a great experience pushing the car harder and learning a new track while still trying to go fast.
wish i had gotten some video, would have been absolutely nasty to watch.
started getting my front wheel wobble back. I thin its time to change to non OEM front tension arms, make a fake power brace for the tension arm brackets. and buy the AL steering rack bushings. All that should fix the problem, and if not then i have some serious shit going on.
