the iron is just more agressive and put on abs if you don’t manage the pressure properly

Seb, that was a "bucket list" event for sure. I wanted to do a Euro delivery but car would not have been ready before winter. I am, however, trying to organize a video shoot of my GT2RS against my 991 Cup Car at Road America. I have reached out to a well connected member of the Chicago Region to ask if we could do 3 laps in each car for comparison...Mano y Mano!! In order to insure that it is fair and accurate, I have asked my Friend/Coach Bryan Sellers to be the driver of each car. Many of you may know Bryan as the driver of the Falken RSR for 7 years and currently driver of the Paul Miller Lambo which has podium-ed every race this year and won at Sebring 12hr. I wanted it to be as accurate as possible and both cars in their stock format with Pirelli Stickers on the Cup. It all hinges on my car arriving mid-august. If Any of our RennListers are going to attend, can you reach out to the Chicago Region and express a desire to see this. I think it will be interesting to see how the Fastest Production car compares against the Porsche factory race car. My Cup Car is a 991.1 GT3 Cup so it won't be against he latest version but we can figure it out!

Congrats on your 2RS!

Hello guys. The first GT2RS from my dealer arrived today. What a stunning car in person and very intimidating looking too!

What an awesome event you are planning Sir! My GT2RS arrives first week of September. I volunteer my services if you need help. This event is something to see in person. Congrats and hopefully this will push through!

Will do! Car is going to my dealership The Exchange! They have been great and I think they would support this wholeheartedly. They are a key sponsor to the event also!
