Don't make me post the princess bride gif again.

The good think is that you're one of the few who take these cars to their natural habitat, so big kudos for that. I'm on track myself on Friday.

Will do ... this was my first ever try at it: http://www.corvetteforum.com/forums/...n-no-more.html

Gonna be at the same track so hopefully I'll improve. I also swapped my coolant mix to 80/20 and got some purple ice in there, so hopefully my temps will behave.

Looks like you were correcting and the nannies kicked in just in time to screw you up.

I'm home safe and I was promoted ... even with the flat derived angst, I'm going to call it a win.

Thanks bud.

Could have been MUCH worse! I've spun out in the gravel run off at my local track. Nothing like sand blasting your wheel and caliper. Not to mention getting rocks wedged in between the pad and rotor and having what seems like a limitless amount of rocks that keep coming out of the car every time remove the underbelly pan when I change my oil.
