A partnership tracking 2014 Toyota FR-S
Fred bought another car with the long term dream of building a home within the local HPDE community, something where we can hang out and enjoy fellow car enthusiasts. One idea is to maintain a few cars that are open for rental along with instruction and guidance around the California tracks.
This FR-S is the first step on the journey. It isn’t the first FR-S, but with a solid Kswap already completed we can build from here. At this time the car is very solid with no mechanical concerns. I take zero credit for building this car, I’m just adding to its great build. Added brake ducting and AP Racing calipers/rotors along with Haltech TPMS sensors.

Running the 'wrong' way around this track. Term of the day was sketchy, all turns just felt unstable or unsighted. Very fun to drive it this way, but completely understand why they typically don't.
Great event with SpeedSF
