Headed to a late season event in Rantoul in central Illinois near Champaign.
One of my students drove up from Champain for school and a couple events. It's only fair I head down at least once!
It's at a concrete airstrip. Should be interesting. Never raced on concrete. I hear it's unique!

Yeah, I wanna try concrete too. All I've done is smooth vs abrasive concrete.

one of the most challenging surfaces I've driven on was freshly sealcoated asphalt.

I meant asphalt haha. Yeah, one of the lots we had was that also.

mrexotica

I figured that's what you meant.
There is one lot we run on about once a year that has new asphalt, old asphalt, and concrete. The first time we ran there, a slalom ran between asphalt and concrete. That was interesting! Tires make different noises depending

On the surface!

That would be super fun.

just a tip for 2007 tc bog. get a newer ecu model. i got mine for $60 on ebay, no more fuel cut off. the tc was more than 1 hp due to new oem dyno methods.

mrexotica

My '06 has a normal ECU.
Compared to the '07, the '06 has one less hp and one more lb ft of torque.
I call it a wash! :-)

on paper only, that is why 07 and up dyno around 10hp more.

Although I never dynoed either my '07 or '06, they were both equal on the autocross course.
