I was the n00b in the GPW.... The red interior, not the tan, though I wish my times would have been that good, LOL. My best of the day was a 40.3. couldn't break into the 30s, but guess I can't be too upset for my first AutoX showing.

It's the non-HD Go Pro. When I bought it, it was much cheaper than the HD one, so it made sense to me. The HD Hero 2 can be had for a pretty reasonable price now, and is much better quality.

What size tires are you guys running? I'm looking at getting 17x9s all around, and using 235f/255r R-S3s, or maybe 255s all around. I'm on stock AP2 suspension, don't want to rub, want to keep the camber reasonable, and don't want to have to run a thicker front sway to keep the tail planted. I don't mind rolling the fenders if I have to. Think I'll be ok?

edit: probably a +63 offset

nice run btw!!! I use TR C3 17x9 +63 and 255's all the way. I dont rub my fenders but get a slight rub on full lock on the control arm. but the rims and tires are worth the sacrifice. like you said about the sway bar. I do feel as tho it might help to have a better sway bar I feel as tho it comes with the territory of better tires.

Yeah, I'm looking at those wheels. Not bad looking, fairly light, and like 600 bucks.

On a side note, I love how tire rack's vehicle selection has an option for S2000 SCCA STR class
