DS1 returned to the track to compete in the Redline Time Attack series at the Autobahn Country Club and places third! 
Dylan and company, debuted their new street series Time Attack 2008 STI for the first time this past weekend and drove it all the way to a near second place finish only being edged out by 4 tenths of a second. This is amazing as the car is a basic stage-2 set-up with coilovers. Even more impressive we also had no testing done to dial in the suspension before this weekend. The car ran smooth and consistent on the track with repeatable times all weekend. Dylan and Mike consistently had lap times which were competitive on the new setup which attests to DS1’s knowledge and ability to transfer this over to their customers’ cars which are intended for both street and track duties. The transformation of their new 2008 STI took place over a 2 day span and finished up the night before the event which showed the dedication by all of the DS1 staff and their attention to detail which allowed the car to perform without a hiccup, which is the same dedication they put into their customers’ cars day in and out. Along with the new brakes and suspension added from their in-stock street shelf parts, the car was tuned by Matt Cater, of 555 Motorsports, which shows the magnitude of both his and the shop’s ability to tune the car for extreme stress and temperatures as the on-track temps rose into the low 90’s on Saturday. This effort by the shop and the driving of Dylan showed what a basic street 2008 STI is capable of with some minor tuning and all through a catted downpipe and a stock turbo! More Pictures Here Follow the rest of the series as Jeff takes over along with further testing done to both the suspension and brakes along with the power increases to try and run down the top spot in the class! Special thanks are due to all our suppliers that helped us with the effort including Dom at Endless Brakes, Alex at Rally Sport Direct, Nick at P1 Performance, JP at Golden Graphics and Everyone at JIC Magic. |
