Oct 2015 PCA Club race / Advanced DE at Miller Motorsports Park running the full 4.5 mile course. This was my first time at the track and it was quite a challenge to learn all 25 turns of this track. I ended up running a 3:08.62 as my best time on Nitto NT01s which I was happy with considering it's a street legal emission compliant car. By comparison, 996Cups on sticker slicks were running it in 3:05-08 while 997.1Cups were in the 3:04-05 range and 997.2Cups right at 3:00 minutes. 997GT3R and RSRs were crushing it with eye watering 2:53-54s. With slicks, 3:02-03 would be very doable with my car. It's a fantastic track and definitely worth the trip.

Originally a 996 RUF Rturbo. Most of the RUF stuff is gone from the car so for all practical purposes it's a GT2 on roids. 3.8 Turbo Mezger, Cup/RSR suspension stuff, JRZs, 1400/1500# springs, etc, etc. Still has a full interior. Most mods are in my sig..
Here's a session at Miller starting at the back with traffic. Fun field with tons of cars including 996/997/991GT3s. Their passing rules were extremely strict which I found odd for a Club race / advanced DE weekend where it's normally open passing with point by. Set the videos on 720p for a better picture and turn up the volume as it's pretty low other wise as the car is fairly quiet.
Here's a video of running HPR this past weekend on an open lapping day. Lot's of traffic with cars ranging from Subarus, Spec Boxsters to 991GT3s and 996 Cups. It was fun with open passing rules, pretty low key..
Couple more short clips running HPR with some 997.1 and .2 Cups earlier this summer. That was a good time..

At the last local Porsche club meeting, this track is called Phillip Island Circuit, close to Melbourne in Australia. You might recognise it from the MotoGP which has a round here.

Some fun last weekend in my 997.1 GT3 with a mate in his 3.0L built 944 Turbo.
