A moment of silence please. Another F20C was taken from us too soon.

I’m gonna be 100% honest here. I knew that engine was going to pop eventually. The car is running boost and he doesn’t even think of looking at the serial gauge that is rolling around in the foot well. I had it setup to trigger an alarm any time there was an issue. Oil temp, oil pressure, coolant temp, intake temp.... ignoring it will cost you. I had that supercharger on my old s2000 for 60k? And dozens of track days with zero issues. The engine ran strong the day I sold the car.
I’ve see way too many s2000 engines pop due to ignorance. These engines are bulletproof as long as you take the time and effort to maintain them and monitor things
Just my $0.02

Hmm, maybe a cheap SC for sale!

We had a good time at the track yesterday. Some fast lap times and not too much traffic.

It felt like I was alway in traffic. Would have had a personal best but always getting held up at the last few turns. Good night regardless

Yup, we will be pitting on the left side near the front straight. Should be there about 4:30pm.

Quite possibly, weather permitting.
