Lord Reter is growing soft. Real men tow their race cars and do it with a 3/4 ton truck.

The beauty of a GT3/RS. You don't need a trailer....just show and go!

Even using my M3 as a dual purpose and has been the best decision all year. Sneaking in a few track weekends without having to tow the whole rig setup is a nice change of pace. Just make sure you have plenty of tires and brakes, and pound away.

Can't wait to do the same with the GT3...

We've seen very little police. I expected a few tickets at least but we never even got pulled over.

No trailer allowed us some pretty cool mountain detours!

The boring parts you can put it in Caddy mode and I can empty a tank in comfort, getting about 350 miles out of a tank, even at triple digit speed.

When the roads become fun it turns into an entertaining beast :thumb up:

Plenty of State and county cops in Wisconsin here to protect you.
I will be in Group one Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday (at least my plan).

The only place between Atlanta and Elkhart Lake you can expect to see cops with regularity will be north of the Wisconsin border through to the northern suburbs of Milwaukee.

A few weeks ago I exited back onto the interstate in Brown Deer, dismissively passed a Prius, and redlined third gear (my car has a GMG bypass as well as catless headers - it's louder than a GT3R) in a posted 55.

Just ahead of me sat a cop, lasering in the median. As he pulled out and flipped on his siren, I resigned myself to receiving my first ticket in a while (last was 2010, in college; zero tickets across 5+ years and 45,000+ miles of driving 911s)...

He pulled over someone else behind me.

No better feeling than that, especially impressive in a GT car.

Peter, what's the story behind the Ferrari?
