I see on the Porsche Club website that they aren't having a track day on the 8th at PIR: http://www.oregonpca.org/events/high-performance-drivers-ed/schedule/ . :( Then after I look on the PIR website I see this listed for June 8th: http://portlandraceway.com/?/events/calendar Porsche Club...

Have U considered this solution?

The car will be on the track by March 15th one way or the other... If that means that all the aero isn't complete, then so be it! The polycarbonate windows are a challenge, getting them right in the frames, as are the Duraflex parts, all requiring a lot of attention as I don't want the Supra to...

Think about using poly carbonate in black. That's what I'm going with on my car's under cover. We're going to try to get it as parallel to the ground as we can.

Thanks Kenny. We are shooting for sub-3100 pounds curb weight, w/ full tank, no spare, and no glass in the doors.

Update pictures of progress so far... on the light weight body panels. Yes, the drivers side hood pin is slightly off because of a plate welded under the radiator cross brace, near the mounting point on that side. I'm good with the compromise. This project has a deadline of 3/28/14, as the...

They ask for proof of license to drive on the streets. Plus they asked me for my experience driving on track so they could place me in the appropriate run group. That was last year...

I have it at my friend's shop. Give me UR full shipping address and I will endeavor to ship it out on Friday. With UR address I'll calculate the shipping and email U for the total, plus security of $355.00. My PayPal is: kdvanloo@live.com

Yes, the BRAILE 2015 has been starting my car daily, in temps as low as 10 degrees F for the past four going on five years. We typically have near freezing weather for three months (December, January and February). Additionally, we get hot too over 100 degrees F for maybe a couple of weeks, and...

I have found BRAILE batteries the most durable, lightest and reasonably priced for our motors. I've had mine since 2009. Here is a link: http://www.braillebattery.com/index.php/braille/product_batteries/b2015

I got the ones for the car from a local dealership.

Hi Josbeat, I'm surprised the diffuser moves as much as it does in the middle, despite the stiffening that has already been done to it... Do U think, in any way, that movement affects the effectiveness of the design?

Last year, they just took my money and required an instructor ride along. I didn't have a racing license, or more than two track days before going to that event.

Take a look at Honestabe's build thread: http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?40754-Project-Clean-87/page8 He has a set of polycarbonate covered headlights that he designed with a write-up on how he did it. The result is a streamlined look and functional headlights.

Any word yet from Porsche Club on sharing their Track Day?

Let me put in a "shout out" to VIP Performance: Great shop for everthing from oil changes to full builds, like my Supra is undergoing, and all at reasonable prices!

Josbeat, I now realize U have developed the MK3 Supra as no one else has on SM. Also, I've decided to follow your lead in developing my Time Attack Supra, although I'm about two years behind U in the development process. I think that as we test our set-up we might both profit from us sharing...

Are U referring to the problems in F1? For example they've been forbidden as some cars got punted off course and injured the drivers. Here is a quote from Wikipedia: "In following years other teams copied and improved on the Lotus until cornering speeds became dangerously high, resulting in...

WOW! This is really coming along Josbeat. On the Time Attack Forum http://www.timeattackforums.com/forums/aero-dynamics/4604-flat-floor-ideal-height-introduction-my-mk2-golf-aero.html, I read a build in the Aero section, where they added side skirts using angle aluminum and screwing on vinyl so...
