Fast! My time was full course, not BTG. Not sure how that translates?
I should add that I was only able to pull off the 7:35 by drafting a couple of fast Swede's in PDK GT3's ... otherwise I was pulling 7:40-45's fairly consistently ... I could go faster in a PDK car :) |

I'll take it! Lol! Pulling a fast time during TF is really hard because of traffic, no?
the # of GT3 and RS'es at the event was simply "nuts" ... by far the most common car in the car park!!! no fewer than 3 Lizzard Green RS'es ... insane! CU@RRV-VI??? |
I secretly want to go with a bunch of friends and all rent all those (yellow) Suzuki Swifts from Rent4Ring and head out onto the Ring! :burnout:
Apex looks like a pretty cool place to both stay and rent! |

Fantastic write up orthojoe. Amazing experience, Europe is the ultimate place to own or drive a GT car.
Whenever I read these ED threads, it takes me back to 2015 when I joined Trakcar on his ED with Mr Purple... Memories and laughs that will be with me for life. ED is a definite must do! Look forward to hearing your thoughts when you get her stateside to familiar tracks :thumbup::cheers: |
Looks like you had a blast! Thanks for sharing and congrats on the RS!

Joe, I ran Spa a few days after you in my ED RS; oddly we went about same lap times, 2:46.6 was my best. it was my first time at Spa and was surrounded by guys in fast cars who knew the track well, so at first i simply tried to stay out of the way! The quickest lap of the day was a 2:36 layed down in a stock GT3RS, so I have some time to find. But what a track, looking for an excuse to get back somehow. |
Here I thought 2:40 was fast in an RS.. ive not gone below 2:44. any chance the 2:36 was a .2RS on R tires? cant wait to go back :-) |

Must be some sort of record or close to it?? |
It’s very fast. I think because all the traffic and apprehension of O Rouge you brakes too early, so you lost time on the way to the top, not so much after exiting. I didn’t look at my video but in my (selective!!) memory I braked later. Will check it out sometime with more bandwidth.. my 0.02 and could be very wrong Joe! |

The weird thing right now is that one of things I'm really missing and looking forward to when I get the car back is flicking that shifter. Seems weird, but it's so fast and impressive you can't stop doing it. |
