Thanks! that was the first time in years i went for a canyon drive...I go to the track fairly often. You ever come to the track events?

Just picked up a ZR1 and trying to get an idea of lap times on these tracks.
The best times and what others are running (what mods etc)...is there a lap time thread?
Just got rid of an e92 m3 and I ran
1:57:7 at Buttonwillow C13 and 1:30:9 at WSIR (KW CS, stoptech, apr aero, hankook rs3 tires) and 1:59:2 and 1:32:8 without the aero. Curious to how I do in the vette once I get used to the power!!!

Hope this isn't weird but I would love to join you guys in the canyons In the LA area as well. Ive been doing it solo for a while, and I don't do stupid stuff like crossing into the other lane, excessive speeding etc.

Just have stock Ps2 on the car right now...will prob run a buddys new set R888s as they dont fit his car anymore
but looking into possibilities..would like to run nt01 or maybe new nt05
not weird at all...Ill let you know next time but that was the first time i went in a year or 2. I track regulary...

Unfortunately the widest NT01 is a 315...which might be okay but typically the ZR1 runs a 335 or 345. Same way with the R-S3's and TD's..no vette sizes. I loved those on my E90 M3 but realized tire options are quite limited with the vette.

thought about the nt01 315...i believe there is a new 140 and 200 tread wear NT05 which is made in a 335

Definitely get a good seat. I installed a Recaro SPG with MTI hardware and it's like a different car. This is the vehicle I drive everyday and it's worth it

Not at all, always looking for people to canyon with. I usually start from supercar sunday off topanga then head through mulholland. I should be there right now, but the weather sucks at the moment.

I've been a few times to Big Willow and once to Button Willow, but not lately it can be kinda expensive. Heres a vid I posted a while ago, it was my second time with my car on willow. I picked up some used tires that pretty much went bald after the first run. I really want to start going to the track again, hopefully soon.

I agree. Yea the first time I went was with josh. But I want to see you drive that zr1, I've seen some amazing vids you have especially with the e92.
