Yep that's me! I got pointed by there and went in to turn 3 way too fast. I didn't even turn in. I was just thinking "oops, I'm not going to be able to make this one" after I passed the guy in the blue S2000. I was more careful passing people after turn 2 later on in the day.

Is that a closed road in these YT vids? YIKES! You gotta keep it behind the lines buddy!

Yes it is Thunderhill, located in northern California. There is a lot of line crossing at Thunderhill. Turn 8,11,12, and 13 have a lot of run out area. I like crossing the lines I don't like going off road.. but it happens. I have ordered some carbotech rp2s so I don't have any more scary moments with my hawk hp+ pads.

I mean the two above YT posts which say 'Highway9East' in the titles?

Oh I see. Those are another users videos, not mine. I agree with you. That is dangerous! Every time I go up to arrowhead (in southern ca) the front page of the newspaper frequently shows fatal accidents caused by people speeding up the mountain highway. I think it is fine to drive briskly, but it is not smart to push the limits on a public road.

Hey, yes. I did one of other people's cars at GDS 9. I have a funny video of me passing a GTR at the track and the instructor asking me what I have under the hood! I haven't had much time to go through everything though, I am working on a big non-car related project.

I am still finishing up a video project on the S2000 that will be posted soon. It is more of a research project than a review, but it is turning out pretty nicely. It will probably be one of my last car videos for awhile. My car is for sale since I will be moving to southern California to pursue an engineering project this summer. I need to start making my money work for me

Best of luck with your move to Ca ...looking forward to your last vid ...btw how much are you selling your S for >??

zentrose

Thank you! I am selling it for a lot less than I put into it! That isn't really the point though. I got a lot of great experience from owning this car I ended up packaging everything together instead of parting the car out. I am planning to deliver it to the buyer next weekend. The buyer requested I put the interior back in along with the heater and the SRS stuff. I also wired up an aftermarket stereo with some good speakers since the buyer will be daily driving the car. Here are some pics:


SRS clock spring install. (There is a specific way to install these, luckily my friend has a lot of experience with it )



driver air bag



passenger air bag



Interior completed. Clean smog certificate on driver seat.



cleaned up and de-winged



I was planning on borrowing my Dad's truck but just found out that my parents are out of the country . I set up my landcruiser to tow with a shiny new hitch. Luckily these trucks come pre-wired for towing




That is all for now. Enjoy your car everyone
