Default Re: "Supercars Exposed" on Speed Channel

Thanks again guys!

Tanner's spin thru #1 at 110mph was a classic that will be in my mind forever. He is so talented and calm, I am glad we got all that on film! He has clearly spent a lot of time sideways to have remained that calm.

I would love more and bigger stop tech stickers! Dont they come in the box with more free brakes?

As for insurance, my car is still fully insured by me still. Speed asked for it's replacement value (that was scary to figure out....) so they may cover it too. My policy covers track use but not actual racing so it's hit and miss if I have an incident.

I have so many mods that it's hard to make the list. I will be making a thread about the buildup soon so I can give props to all the great help I have been getting.

Tanner and I both drove my car but we never drove with the other (I wish we had) I did beat him in the STI by .2 tho so I do get a little claim to fame! He did give me some good setup suggestions that I will be trying soon. I hope we get to ride with each other at some point.

That Aston was a beauty and deserves credit for it's abilities. I did beat it by about 6 seconds (on a 1:22 lap)so it really didn't have a chance (the editing didn't really show the gap). It's times would have been competitive with a typical stage 2 STI at the same track which is still very impressive. I would love to own one but for my $$$, I would buy a Porsche turbo instead. Or, my car plus my motor home I use to tow it to the track....

BTW, even tho I beat the Viper, I bet it could give me a real run for my $$$ if we spent some time making adjustments etc. I'm not a viper fan but that car was menacing...

Thanks again, JCM

(on a side note) Do you think Tanner pulls a lot of chicks? He seems like a cool dude, and even responds to emails! It seems like they are aiming their show towards this now.

Sick car and great show. Tanner's slide was impressive, but I still bet you were a little nervous watching that!
