GT3 is not that deadly quick as GT2 RS so i would not worry about safety that much. Margin for error will be bigger.
I have a hard time believing there would be a "large" lapdelta like 15 seconds when putting the stock buckets back in. The driver is still in a 6pt raceharness (stock eur clubsport spec), not in a 3pt seat belt ! That also attributes to the "stability" of the driver, not only the bucket.

Allow me to rephrase my 10 laps. Make that at least "30 minutes of continuous lapping" ! That would roughly equate to about 10 laps at Spa and 15 laps at Zolder :-)

That is really impressive! That's about ONE MINUTE faster than the first GT3 (996)

Wow that is extremely impressive for the HP and weight. Going to different spring rates and sway bars must have really planted the car more.

Almost seems impossible with 520hp (underrated). I wonder what those Michelin Cup2 R's look like?

Agree but they seem to be same grip as Hoosier 7's after seeing this much lap time improvement. Is your .1RS for sale? I notice a clone on Ebay for sale.

It will be when .2 RS gets close. There has to be some story on that one on ebay for that low a price.
