Sam, I know this has been debated to death but can you give me your first hand impressions on the steel set-up coming from a PCCB Turbo?
Am finalising the spec of my GT3 here in the UK and still hesitating with the PCCB option. Seeing how intense your sessions are.. If you are good with steels I should most definitely also be ok...

Hi Sam. You should be able to recover your parallel license using the email address you used when you purchased it the first time. You can also search your keychain for it. Most likely it will be stored there. Let me know if you need more help retrieving your license. Mark

That is the one corner that RWS definitely shows when compared to my C4S, it was very noticeable in the TTS as well. I thing RWS is not all or none but rather progressive. I further think it activates not just based on speed and steering wheel orientation but on throttle input as well. For example, when I take Ricochet with caution and hence less aggressive throttle input (because I literally did experience ricochet there in the C4S), my exit speed at the end of the curbing is 96-98. My max in the C4S was 94 (tire difference). Now, if I feel ballsy and have full throttle at apex, the car will tuck in nicely and exit speed at same point climbs to 102 and it causes an immediate release of endorphins!! Trouble is, I don't always feel that way in this corner.

Michelin SuperSports could be a great long lasting tire, maybe shave them?
Not the fastest but they should last longer than the very aggressive street tires like SportCups etc.

I shaved them down to 6/32 on the C4S once but they evaporated. Super grip for one day then quick erosion. I am certainly going to try them during the heat of Texas summer as I dooubt the PSC2 would last any meaningful time. I used to blister the Pirelli P Zeros after one session in 100+ weather. The PSS tolerated the heat a lot better.
