Thanks. Yeah I'm thinking with track pads and DSC, alignments, 1:19s should be within reach. 1:18s? We shall see.

Yeah, that's the "Bone Crusher" and it's stripped down and souped up! He was my rabbit on that lap... still couldn't catch him but I'm just driving about 7 or 8/10s.

Unable to beat my personal best of 2.134 with a 2.135.
There as a car in the way into Bishop Bend, lost a few tenths, maybe 5 tenths?
The car has 2:12 in it easy, I just need to clean up my driving a little and get two clear laps :-)
So, I keep trying !

Dang! Nice! Your T1 apex speed is awesome...overall everything looks great...very smooth..with out the speedo graphic I won’t really know you’re going so fast through the corners.

Low speed tq on the GTS seems advantageous.

Yep it is...my 2017 GTS would stay with GT3/RS cars and pull on them a little coming out of corners. However the GT3/RS cars would out corner my GTS. I can really tell the corner ability of my 2018 GT3 compared to the 2017 GTS I had and I ran the GTS on GT3 MPSC2 tires too. GT3 suspension and aero is superior. I did love the Gas engine and torque. It was fun on track and more fun on the street.

Peter - your lap is FAST in the .2 3RS... I'm a good 10 seconds behind you... Watching you makes me realize I need a bigger set of nuts. I had an extra 200 pounds, but still... For reference, I'm running Dunlops, but I don't think that plays any factors into my performance (or lack thereof):

awew911, keep at it...you look smooth in the car. Peter is a great great driver with more seat time than anyone I know. The amount of data study and testing he does is incredible but there’s natural talent there too. He’s very relaxed and super smooth...his video of him in the car is like he’s on a relaxing Sunday drive.

Keep studying video, getting seat time and get coaching from a few pro guys.

Copy that, Mike! I will be using his video as a baseline lap now. Thank you!

I'm more of a one trick pony, if I'd juggle ***** and eat ice cream at the same time, as often as I drive Sebring, I'd end up on America's most talented or somesuch show.
And I have a cheater car and I don't post the laps where it all doesn't quite work out hahahaha...Perhaps I should edit a bloopers video :-)

Plus when Awew911 gets into his racecar and you rile him up a bit, he pulls a superfast lap out of his *** pronto, ask me how I know LOL.

You give me too much credit. You ran out of grip and I took advantage of that small window. looking forward to the next event!
