I'll be there Tues and Wed and I'll let you know! I know it won't be me with
the fastest lap, but I bet Hurley or Cass or Sean will post some good times.
I'll post back here on Tuesday. I'll have some GoPro video too I will post when
I get back.

When I was there in July the C2s had integrated video showing speed etc, but the video Wasn't good. The GT3s didn't have any video in them. So I used a GoPro. No Harry's lap timer as it is their cars at PSDS. I don't think they have added video to them yet, so I will use my GoPro again in the GT3 and cup cars. The weather is supposed to be excellent so I think it will look great. Here's one I did in July riding on a hot lap with Sean Israel in the 991 C2

Yes! Thanks! I didn't know that until last week, when this thread came out and someone said it.
I know I will not be driving the cup car any harder than 8/10ths. I don't want to be known as the last guy to ball one up.
I spoke to Jeff Purner last week and he said they are working towards
something to fill it's place. I'll get more details tomorrow.
I suggested getting about 6 more GT3s and doing a GT3 masters Plus.
I don't think I am far off with that idea. Of course it depends on how to get the cars if production stops in Dec.
And should they take precedent over a customer in securing a car?
Many questions.

That looks like about $500 worth of carbon vapor.

Thanks! I'm looking forward to your feedback. Please take note of the tires they're running, as well as ambient temps.
