I copied that pic from the water temp thread. The guy that took the pic is very happy with the radiator and with most aluminum radiators costing north of $400 the price for this Champion Cooling Systems unit looks pretty good.

That sucks man. Sorry to hear that. Something broke on my car first session today so I came home early.

I did get to go 150mph for the first time ever in a car though. Awesome feeling. I boost.

Dave sorry to gear. Anything major? Did you have to take the hood off or did the new cooling mods help?

My God, this is hot...

I'm not sure yet. It developed an insane vibration midway down the back straight and I thought the RF tire was flat. By the time I made it into the pits it was gone?? I'm thinking it picked up a chunk of rubber but am not really sure. I jacked it up to check things over and the trans sounded weird when ran in gear so I called it a day.

Jason, did you ever make it to VIR with the PTuned car?

Sounds like a engine mount issue which is common on FI cars. Have checked them?

They are brand new. Replaced due to vibrations and this was a different kind of shake.

On a positive note, there were multiple S2000's there running a hardtop and no aftermarket roll bar.
