Took my sons FRS to summit point

Bone stock other than Hoosier R and Carbotech pads. I was very impressed how good of a track car the car is right out of the box.

Good to have you on here, Marty. Here are 2 other T4 builds.

Jared at North Country Subaru has actually come from dead last to win with his current T4 trim against his competition.
And Ed Barr in the Bert Smith BRZ appealed for less weight but was denied at some point. I don't have any direct contact with either of them, but I'm sure we can get in touch with them if you need additional support to make the case for the car.

Drivers going to Summit Point Main for the first time would do well to watch this video to see what the line is.

The plan is to test the car and see where it is. At this point I'm going to ask the SCCA for a weight reduction and a suspension package. The hope is these changes with a good tune will get the car in the ball park. I want to make sure the car will be competitive in SCCA T4 prior to going through all the work to build one.

Thank you to Josh and Emmanuel for the help!

Marty
