I was there Mark but by the time I saw your car on the track I only got a couple passes and it was hard to keep you in frame down the straight. This was the best shot I got! Sorry I didn't get more, I was also experiencing battery failure and needed to conserve to get shots of my bosses car. I know who signs my checks, lol
Perry, do you have a high rez of that?
if so, can I haz it? Sean@928docs.com

Mark,
Looks like you changed your wing, it looks more like a 996 Cup Car wing.
It also looks like a lot of front lip spoiler, guessing from the results it works for you with the balance of the car.
Any aero mods underneath to direct airflow and aid in down force?

Well today was fun but not the results I was hoping for. I qualified 4th and by turn 3 of the first lap I was in the lead. Unfortunately I could not hold it as my front tires we giving up. After a few laps I had lost all the positions I had gained and was struggeling to do a 1:44 when yesteraday I was doing 1:41,1:42. The front tires were plain shot so I came in. It was fun while it lasted and I did have a camera in the car. More later. I need to drive home

A couple photos from today....Note the "tire supply" used throw aways from other drivers. Some shots of the tow rigs used by many of the drivers. 911 Cup cars were everywhere. The only street 928 I saw there .... I left before the race hall, pass was about to expire

I've been standing in the midst of groupies for the checkbook racers, and the fury they exhibit when the 928 beats their million-dollar baby is very funny...
Not all of his competitors are idiots, but there are certainly enough of them to be amusing.
Way to go Mark!

Good eye. That is a World Challenge cup wing which is bigger than a stock cup wing. The splitter ended up being too much and I cut it back Sunday morning. No other aero mods on the underside.

Hi Mark,
Like I said, I really love this race stuff.
I thought the front spoiler looked a bit smaller in Jim's pictures from the one before, I thought maybe it was just the camera angle.
Awesome job as usual Mark, don't stop just yet.

you cut that splitter back pretty far! was that WCGT wing more or less downforce than the other wing you had? Im thinking it was less, for the higher speed and you cut the splitter to match.
how does the passenger side look now?
that is so great! 1:41s. wooo hoo!
Im going the next Fontana race!!
