$12000. thats what i found out my new 7at transmission and radiator cost when it went out on me 2 saturdays ago. suspected it was the torque converter and luckily got approved through warranty for a new 1 on monday. waited 4 long days and it finally came in friday 1pm and my master tech was able to get it in the car so i could leave for sebring. i spent the whole week feeling like i would not make it. needless to say i was a total mess on the track the whole weekend between a new trans, new coils, new track, etc. no excuses but my head just wasnt in the game.

it was still an amazing weekend with a bunch of old and new friends. got to meet mike bonnani and alan crocket - our head instructors, john "nads" naderi with his running commentary, ryan gates with his sick evo, catesby and will with their quick gt-rs, nero and wes from titan and the list just goes on.

anyway on to the pics, they're pretty random as i just snapped em whenever i remembered/felt like it...

Wow that looked like a great time Woady!

 

Sweet w0 looks like fun :biggthumupup:

Why'd the transmission take a dump on you tho?

 

How well did the lambo do?

 

Woady I wish you were here on the west coast to come out to our events.

thanks guys.

not sure but they believe it was the torque converter that went out.
we werent really paying attention to times but ron is really developing for just a hobby driver so the car really moves.
tell me about it.

 

great pics! can't believe all of this happened in good ol' polk county!

 

looks like a great time.
