Ya, it's a blast, everyone has to try it at least once.
The site we use for the summer series is awesome, it is the Navy's parking lot for thier LCAC Hovercrafts. We use a very small portion of the huge lot, and our small portion is pretty large, about 1 million square feet I was told..

Are you still using the nittos on the front?
sounds like you need some stickier tires. Pretty well layed out course, looked like a lot of fun. The autocrosses around here i can sometimes throw it into third for a little bit.

I really like the pics of your formula.If you are doing autocross have you changed the camber in you front suspension?I am just curious it will handle bettr with negative camber{I believe}.I have a friend that does autocross witha import car and we changed his camber to negative 2 degrees,and he said it helped.I am sorry if you have already posted any suspension specs which I did not research.Like I said awesome formula!~!!!!!

Thanks for the compliments.
I was running my street tires that day, Kumho 712's up front and Nitto 555's out back, 275/40/17 on all 4 corners.
I was too tired this weekend to put the other ZR1's on that have my Nitto 555RII's.
Camber is set to as much negative as teh stock strut plates allow.
Car was painted 18 months ago by a friend of mine, color is Torch Red.
Here is a vid with me running on the 555RII's,

Nice pics! 
With stock camber plates the max camber that I could get is 1.25 degrees. With the ground control camber plates that I have now, I run 2 degrees and can get another half a degree if I want it. My car has too much front grip as it is.
