I kinda let this thread die... so I'll do a quick recap ahah. I decided I should keep this going because it keeps me motivated, I'm not sure about organized tho. Also, Ryan Conley told to get back at it haha
So list of track days since last:
-speedventures LVMS HFF 4-21-2018
-PCA SMMR 11-19-2018
-SCCALV LVMS shortcourse 1-26-19 (s2000)
-speedventures CVR cw 2-10-19 (s2000)
speedventures LVMS HFF 4-21-2018:
No changes to the car for this event. I ran in supermod class. My car isn't as competitive in supermod because of lack of aero and horsepower. However, I still came out with 1st in class with a 2:04.406
PB lap:

I think this is pretty decent for never running this course. I broke down my lap by turn, showing how I think I can pick up time in the description. Speedventures is coming back, so I hope to improve in this coming April. I am thinking 2:00-2:02 would make sense for the car.
After this event, I decided to do some nutty stuff to the car. Well nutty in my eyes. I've always kept the car relatively simple but I decided to have some fun since I have points to spare for supermod class. The overall theme will remain tho, Bseries only and no aero.
New Mods:
-cut out all useless metal inside car
- metal brackets for rear seats
- bracket that holds SRS computer
- etc
-cut out spare tire area, cover with sheet of carbon fiber (not worth it btw)
-cut out oem lower radiator support, replace with custom aluminum lower support
-custom v mount radiator
-Tractuff swirl tank
-Checkerdsport front tube bumper beam
-remove vinyl wrap, to hopefully prepare for paint at sometime
Now I have more I want to do but I also wanted track time, so to be continued this next level of the car

PCA SMMR 11-19-2018:
Back at my home track with the all too familiar 3.4 configuration. Still have the long term goal of sub 2:40 with the integra while keeping b series and no aero. I didn't think I would Pb because the tires were at the end of their life so the main gaol was to shakedown the new cooling setup. I had to stay aware of the temps because I never finished making a radiator fan mount or hook up the fan. So I had to be careful to not sit and idle too long. Never was a problem. Anyways, I ended up doing a 2:42.90x which was better than expected. Only a little over a second slower than my best. I dialed in some more grip front grip, in seems, or at least I think so haha. I did have one incident where I locked up all four into the busstop, which ended my day because I flat spotted all 4 tires. During the lock up, the car got side ways and I hit a big cone on my fender, causing the below:
I didnt get the 2:42.9 on camera but got a 2:43.17x:
