Default TrackdayTire Discount Coupon Code

Colonel Red Racing is now sponsored by TrackdayTire, we are a Gold Ambassador. What that means for for you:

Discounts on most of the tires typically used for HPDE track days and club racing. Hoosier A7, R7 and Wets, Toyo RRs, R1Rs, and R888s. The discount is 8% off the listed price, and includes free shipping. I've compared the prices with other online retailers, they aren't close to this discount coupon price.

Even Better: The Continental Extreme Contact Force: The Continental ECF is a 200 treadwear tire designed by Continental & Hoosier for Endurance Racing. That makes it a great track day tire too! With the sponsorship discount code below you can order 4 tires and get the 4th tire free. There is a small shipping charge of $32 total for the four tire order.

How to use the discount code:
Go to Trackdaytire.com. Load up your shopping cart. At the top of the shopping cart page there is a box "Have a Sponsorship Code?" Click the link and in the Sponsorship Code box and enter CRRVIP. (As in Colonel Red Racing VIP). Apply the coupon and see the savings in your cart.

Enjoy the sponsorship benefit!

Next and probably my last Sprint race in the STI is this weekend at The Ridge. It will formally go up For Sale there. If it hasn't sold by October I may race it in the Cascade 2-4-8 Hour Enduro.
If you live in the NW and are interested please come by The Ridge and check it out!

Default Cascade Enduro Oct 14 PIR

I'm prepping both the STI and 818R for the Cascade 2-4-8 hour enduro on Oct 14th at PIR. If t's nasty weather we'll take the all weather fighter, the Blue Sake Bomber STI. Enclosed, wipers, defrost, and most of all AWD makes it a fantastic car to race when it's 50 degrees and raining.
New CV axle, new sparkplugs, ignition coils, and ignition coil connectors. New brake pads, brake fluid.

If the weather is beautiful (like it is today, very rare in the PNW in October) we'll take the 818R.

If you are interested in crewing for the race please contact me. gator.hudson at hotmail.com.

Default Two years in a row!










We won First Place in our class in the 8 Hour Enduro at PIR. Two years in a row we have finished the entire 8 hour race and won our class. Like last year our main competitor's car broke down after they finished the 4 hour. Unlike every other year it finally rained. What a difference that made! Cars, some very, very, fast ones that had been lapping us all day weren't able to handle the rain. For 2 hours not a single car passed us, and we passed a bunch of them, including the Saker several times. And we stayed on slicks. It's a racing memory I'll have forever.
Thanks to Subaru of Bend for your support!
Retro Racing it was great partnering with you again in the paddock.
And thanks to Arcflash for your fabrication support and tuning.

I did a Flatirons Tuning podcast/YouTube interview on Winning Endurance Races in a Subaru.
I hope it helps some of y'all.

My son is getting my 818R. I'm tracking a 2022 BRZ! Was just at Pitt Race and got to play on the track with Elivan Goulart, a multi-national champion in Spec Miatas. He drove my buddy's 2023 BRZ. Will have video up soon on Youtube.
Oh no, Glynn, you're getting rid of both EJ platforms?!!

The 2022 BRZ should be fun. Please tell me you'll be logging oil pressure and temperature and sending off your oil samples regularly!!

Congrats!! That's a pretty big accomplishment. Bummed to see the car going up for sale but like all projects, you find a time to move along....or it doesn't sell and you run the 25 Hour

I just saw that the other day. I need to carve out some time to give it a listen.

Amazing journey with the 2005 STI endurance racer build! The dedication to overcoming each challenge and the detailed technical modifications are truly inspiring. Would love to hear more about the decision-making process behind each upgrade and how they impacted the car's performance in endurance races.
