And you SHALL!!

No, but I've heard its not a very spin out friendly track.

Any pointers on this track?

Well there is a very good reason why I spun out (apart from driver error...)...

I just changed from a staggered setup to a Non-staggered weeks before Buttonwillow (17x9 + 45 255 tires) and without beefing up the front sway bar they say the car will tend to oversteer quite a bit. And boy did it! I was fighting it quite a bit but i've just ordered the Whiteline Front Sway bar so naturally I'd want to go back and run there again to see the difference/improvements

Yes the speedway has walls and even though i've learned my car's limits (and with the addition of the sway bar) this place still scares me a little... I say stay within your limits and don't be too brave out there

How much track experience do you have? I've only done it twice...

More Greener than you think!

But I dont think I am a bad driver, but I want to see what my limit is and improve from it.

I am hoping more people with S2K will be going and to bounce off ideas and experience with.
