Ok thanks. I had Giro on my 991s and they were great. Just trying to decide whether to go Giro or AP on GT3.2 as friends have had AP lasting long time (more than 20 days of PCA and
other events). Might just me braking too hard though.
Your car is looking great, nice mods.

Thanks for documenting. I'm really looking forward to hearing more impressions on the difference between .1, .1 RS, and .2.

So I didn't like the white under the side stripes. Made the car look too far off the ground and shortened the door. So I redid them. Also had windows tinted. Next up is rollbar..





And put this gem on the rear...

haven't had the .2 on track yet, but I can tell you that the engine has a different torque curve and the gear shifts are different as well. The engine feels stronger and sounds better. Can't gauge aero differences yet. Car feels very stable at speed, but also hard to compare empirically compared to .1. I really wanted this car for the motor and aero.

Very happy so far with 700 miles logged. Drove it on a 3.5 gt3 trip each way, back/forth same day (jax to stuart). Buckets were very comfortable.

Wow - fantastic build

Looks to me like you were able to capture the motorsport heritage and feel without making it too much, very tasteful choices

Yes. Piece of cake. The cutout, once backed by place carpet is hardly noticeable if bar s removed. The cutouts had no bearing on my trade in value.

the biggest pain is the rear carpet.

in going to be installing a BBI in my brother in laws car in a few weeks. I'll compare the installation here.

Thanks!

It's a mini-tribute to the RSR for now. Have a few more finishing touches with regards to the graphics.
