    Yes, exactly....one of my tires has marbles / melted rubber even after driving home after a 30 mile drive. The car is driving strange too because of this. I picked the wrong side of the track indeed. Lol. How can I get this rubber off my tires?

    Just keep driving it. Get some load and heat into the tires and it'll all come off eventually or you can clean out the ridges w a plastic wedge or flathead to help the process along after a drive, it's either that or you zig zag on public streets like a drunk person to get them out faster hehe ;)

    Most fun solution imho is bring it back to sonoma today and have another go on the track! :D

    I have to say out of all the cars on the track, Freshmeat's Scud was the best sounding one. Truly high rpm F1 sound! It was nice meeting you by the way.

    Some pics from Friday below. Did anyone have track access to take pics of us driving? Isn't there a service that was snapping pics that we can order?

    What a fantastic weekend! Great seeing everyone there. Here are a couple photos of mine from the weekend. Tons to go through and edit...I'll be busy these next few days. I was there all three days at various sections of the track with media credentials. If you went on track during touring and/or sport sessions, let me know which car was yours and I will see if I have any photos of your car. I can't guarantee anything, but I have a lot of photos from the dealer lapping sessions.
