So after three weeks of ownership, I had chance for open track day at TWS (Texas Work Speedway). Only a few chances left at TWS before the close the long track and only offer the short track - and then close. Anyway, on my way to the track at 5:30 AM, I hear this terrible flapping noice and pull over to the side and discover my front splitter has come lose. Are you freaking kidding me! Pull into a parking lot and jack it up to see if I can do anything. Soon becomes obvious I need a Auto or hardware store. It is 6:00.
After slowly driving to nearest auto store and waiting for them to open, I buy some screws, remove front splitter, secure belly pan and head to track. Arrive at 11:00 and get checked in.
Here is where the fun starts - this car is a beast (2017 with convenience pack). I take it easy for first session and can't believe the difference over my 2008 GT500 with plenty of performance and handling mods. The steering, the suspension and the overall feel was night and day. This car was so much fun! After a few laps into next session, I beat my old personal best by about 2 sec and I am not even used to it yet. What a great car. Now, if I knew the dealer who installed the splitter, I will be sure to not go there (bought car used so I don't know yet where it was purchased.
My dog chewed up my GoPro so no good videos. Harry's is too bouncy to show. All in all, a great day. Have a used splitter on order!
