    And that is why I avoid curbing (and dipping a wheel off) at all costs.
    (Also probably why I could stand to get closer to apexes - too scary to ruin my car lol)

    Is that how you normally take that line or was that an isolated event?

    It's not the car you drive, it's how you drive it.

    This was my first time at Thunderhill 5-mile and I was unfamiliar on how T6W was. It is somewhat a blind over the top left that switches to a right. I thought I could straighten out earlier than I could've and that there was actual pavement there..instead I broke a rim. It's okay, its just a wearable item I guess.

    Minor Update:

    • Put my stock seat back in.
    • Oil change w/ Castrol 0W-40 Euro Formula
    • Put in Fuel Stablizer


    Total mileage between 15 months of driving: 1678miles.


    I submitted an used oil analysis (UOA) to Blackstone Labs and awaiting results.

    Gasoline has a shelf life of 90-100 days. Fuel Stabilizers slows down the absorption of water. Since I only drove 1633 miles in the past 15months, it is a good idea to run some fuel stabilizer into the tank to help prevent high water content and cause stale fuel. Usually proir to a track day, I'll drive the car for a week on my commute to waste all the fuel and get some fresh fuel into the tank.

    Some reflection of my habits of the past year, I think quarterly drives with this car emptying its fuel tank is a must.
