In the initial test session we had four cars go out, Loi Song's DC2 and Will Salazar's EG hatch were the first on track. Both looked blazing fast
for cars on street tires and although we couldn't officially confirm it with times, they appeared to be the cars to beat. The next pair out on track
was Gilbert Corona's EF hatch and Mike Chang's JDM FD2 replica, both looking quick but not as fast as the first two. There was almost no tire
squeal coming off the FD2, a testament to how easy the vehicle is to drive.
For the second testing session we only had three cars go out, because at that point they were the only other cars in attendance. Kane Chan's EJ
coupe was able to nail the fastest lap time of the second session despite oil consumption issues and nearly spinning out from oil spilling under the
body and onto the tires. The coupe also received very high praise from driver Andy Hope for having the most responsive throttle of any of the
cars he drove. Also out in the second session was Chris Tong's EK hatch, sporting uber-hot Mugen MF10s on the track! Andy also had an
interesting time in Elton Lo's FG coupe, with seat rails not locking into place and brake overkill it made for a wild ride.
In the third and final testing session we had a late arrival from Jason Kaplan, aka "Katman" of FF Squad fame. We also had a guest appearance
from Charles Tran whom just happened to be at the track with a B-Series powered EG and able to join the roster. So the final session was EG
vs EG, B-Series vs K-Series, probably the most evenly matched pair of the whole event. Andy loved Katman's car, adding that the only things
he would change would be a rollcage and a seat upgrade so that he could take the car out and feel safe really pushing it.
At the end of the day when we got all the timing info it was no surprise, Loi's DC2 had annihilated the field - just like it appeared when on track.
Roughly two seconds behind Loi was Will, who's EG was out on track at the same time, then in a fairly close third Katman's EG. It was a
K-Series podium sweep for the track portion, but we still had dyno testing to complete the following day.
