I already have the 4.57-R FD and have had it for about 9 months now. At some point next year I might get the inlinePRO rear diff conversion kit. When and if that happens I'll end up with a 4.09 FD.

I'd like to give a big thumb's up to the line in Jack's video. I used it last time I was there - having watched his video 3 dozen times - and felt good on that track for the first time. The earlier turn-in to turn 5 and his line going into 9 were very comfortable in my stock S on street tires. I also found his line into 9 to be simpler, faster and easier for me to execute than the line on the map. His advise to, "Keep your steering, braking and throttle inputs smooth" will be taped to my steering wheel next time out.

My first outing on this track was scary. The speeds were much faster than the other tracks I'd been on, SOW, BW, and Spring Mountain. Kent Jordan went off that day too, a truly sobering event to have witnessed. Oddly enough, despite my fear, this track is really growing on me and is quickly becoming my favorite.

I never look at my speedometer but my passengers love to. 119, I am told, is the fastest I've ever gotten at the end of the front straight; which tells you everything about my respect for and skill level at this track.
