Thanks John, shoot me a pic, or bring to Sebring.
You should be bringing diffuser, extra pads, Ti pucks and seat recliner thingy (passenger seat only) to Sebring on Saturday.

Tires are 265 on front - not 295. No mods to fenders. I run with stability control and traction control on and they work perfectly. Don't know about ice mode. The one issue to be aware of is me and another GT3 guy with 19" wheels and stickier tires are getting warnings about rear wheel steering. So I eliminated rear wheel steering and swiitched to monoball suspension parts in the rear. Now the toe stays solid and it fixed the oversteer issue (345 Hoosiers help too!). I'm not too technical - just learning but James at Scan Automotive in Vancouver did the setup and is a super nice guy. I will also do my best to dig up whatever info you need if you are going to switch. Huge positive difference - car feels great! Think it cost around $60k CDN ($40k USD) for the whole switch from stock including steel brakes, BBS rims, shocks, etc. Gimme a call if you feel up to it! Not too many crazies modding their RS's. haha! 604 250 2470.
Casually reading I happened to stumble upon this little gem of a post. I need to know everything about how you eliminated the RWS. Was it simply a software change, or did you have to remove hardware?

I'm planning to do all these things to mine......Clubsport suspension, 19's, brakes, yada-yada....but I'd really like to know how to accomplish the RWS delete, since it's obviously possible. Thanks in advance for any info, I'm one of those crazies too!

^^ I read about problems with RWS due to a light battery.
That being said, RWS delete adds lightness by being able to run a Li battery and removal of RWS mechanism.

I've never had a RWS issue (Or any other besides rubbing) and I think it helps front grip too much to eliminate it but I run a heave normal battery.

I'm just now starting to experiment with my latest setup, added a diffuser and 19" with Hoosiers.
SC is happy, RWS is happy, it all seems to work well.

Good deal. I'm more interested in it for just consistency of handling. It's my first time with RWS, so it might stay, but I'd like to know the protocol and process for the delete, in the event I want to get rid of it. Every top level driver I know said they don't prefer it. Maybe I won't mind it, I'm sure it's probably fine, but want to know all the details before I begin my upgrades.

I’ll be at Sebring from 1/27 - 2/3... about 5 track days in there.

Will I see you guys there? I’m shipping the RS down.

I think it's part of the annual service interval.

Sir, my greatest respect for using the car!

I'm not worthy writing in the same thread as you, Sir!

I'm kneeling.

Well, in the service book for track service intervall it is suggested that you clean the airfilterbox after 5000km's of trackdriving (I suppose off-roading changes that to 2500km's) and that the airfilter itself is changed at 10000km's.
