Chicago Roll Call!! - Page 160

itskrees · 07-31-2012, 12:04 AM

Hey guys, I have a pair of Sparco Fighter Seats in black up for sale. Seats are in excellent condition.

http://thmotorsports.com/sparco/spar...r/i-78254.aspx

Bottom mount, fiberglass shell, extremely comfortable. Minor scratches on the bottom where the seat mounts, but you wouldn't see that anyways. About 3 TINY tears on one of the seat cushions, but nothing that can't be stitched back up. Didn't even notice it until I got up close to it.

Retail is $569 each ($1140). Selling mine for $900.

Text me (224)628-0564 if interested.

Mazduh · 07-31-2012, 12:10 AM

^How well do they fit in a miata?

Interested in a possible trade for lotus seats?

itskrees · 07-31-2012, 12:13 AM

Nah thanks for the offer though. Haven't tried fitting them in my Miata but I know that its been done before.

Thanks, your cousin does awesome work as well. Very happy with the great job he did on my intercooler.

Both days Hopefully...with the new setup.

Slider · 08-01-2012, 03:03 PM

Nice, should be a huge improvement over the old wheel/tire, it felt like driving on marshmallows.

I just registered for Wangfest, if anyone is interested it's September 3rd. My first time at Gingerman

Great beginner track, more info here http://www.jdmchicago.com/forums/showthread.php?t=25130

aCab · 08-01-2012, 04:19 PM

September 3rd is Labor Day for anyone questioning the date. I'll be there instructing...probably in my new to me Miata. Might bring the s2000 out as well, but that just means more hassle.

circlejerk911 · 08-01-2012, 10:21 PM

i think me and my buddy max are goin to wangfest, my 1st event. pretty hyped.

Slider · 08-01-2012, 11:23 PM

People going to wangfest, are you camping somewhere or grabbing a hotel room?

Don't be a pussy. Camp out the night before. That's my preferred method. I usually sleep in the truck, but since I'm driving the miata out, I'll probably be in a tent. Bring beer and walk the track with me the night before!

Slider · 08-02-2012, 08:33 AM

I might do that. I have to figure out how much a tent will run me since I don't have one, and how big the box is to see if it will fit in a Miata.

Slider · 08-02-2012, 08:54 AM

Oh almost forgot, I uploaded a couple vids from my track day at Blackhawk. Any criticism is welcome, it was my first time out there, second track so I'm a noob so I appreciate any tips. First vid is just a lap with track map and speed overlay. Second video is the last session of the day with warmup and cool down lap with no data overlay.

7urtle · 08-03-2012, 12:58 AM

if i had a roll bar and helmet i would so go.

bentoy555 · 08-03-2012, 05:42 AM
