They mentioned that they will be down at VIR which is going to be in Atlanta. It's the Super Street event I believe. Brian and I are contemplating hitting that up. It's in October.

PTuning's tC drew a lot of attention when I was standing by them. People were coming up left and right and drooling at how fast it was. 2600lb tC with 370-380whp is moving pretty damn good might I say. And that's just the tip of the iceberg as they are using the stock motor.

I did not catch what place they landed, so hopefully when they get back, they can give us a run down of the full time sheets.

I will get my videos uploaded as well, I have to say in talking with the Ptuning guys, and watching them run....I was really impressed, and they are really doing what the performance companies do, they are testing the equipment on the track before they release there turbo kit and other parts to the public. As Travis said this is one of the best events I have ever been to, and I bet we spent 6 hours plus talking to the 2 Scion teams, and they were so personable, and VERY knowledgable. I have to say after talking to them, it is really going to make me re evaluate a couple things with my setup. I know that like Travis said he and I are going to try and hit the event at VIR!

Oh, and we got to do 5 laps on the Nashville Superspeedway Time Attack track and follow Rado around in his time attack car!! Have video from that too!

Here are some more pictures:


















and a couple of us on the track

Just to share a pic I found on NASIOC from Topspeed. Looks like some suspension tuning is necessary. Cool pick though.

That's not body roll. That's the tc coming down after riding on two wheels from going over the curb. I'll post more tomorrow after I get some much needed sleep. Driving 10+ hrs all night with no sleep in a suburban with no A/C is a very unpleasant experience, but it was all worth it.

I guess that last "custom" cross member cut into your "A/C for the road trip" fund?

I was about to say, that's not body roll. Riding in it, I can assure you, the body roll is little to none. That's an airborne pic right there. Body roll usually has all 4 on the ground.
