Default First Post-Swap Track Day

I had a track day at Mid America Motorplex (Council Bluffs, IA) last weekend. This was the first event after swapping in the S50.
All was good once we got to the track; my fuel pump crapped out on me in the middle of nowhere. 3 hours and $250 later we were on the road from that mess. NAPA to the rescue! I didn't manage to get many pics, just some paddock shots.

The car was fantastic on track. As predicted, the car oversteers on command and is very easy to trail-brake rotate. Brakes were an issue again. 325 brakes just aren't up for the task, so I'll be mounting a Stoptech 332mm kit up front. I was on Nitto NT-01s, 235/40/17 all the way around. Once they were scrubbed in and heat-cycled, they felt amazing. Passing E46 M3's is a pretty good feeling!

At my house, 1 day before leaving. (yes, it's that low in the rear)
