Loved it. I thought I'd try the GT4 for a while before getting back into a GT3. Interesting to swap over....

robmypro

I was really impressed with the GT4 on track, Macca. Enjoy it!

bronson7

Love the colour Macca. Enjoy the 4 but I see a 3 back in your life.

Jamie@dundonmotorsports

I talked to Phil, he's in too... You guys can coordinate...

Nick Yoskin

Cool! It will fun hanging and talking car sh*t.

ShakeNBake

Oh no, you might have to spend some time with us middle class tree monkeys over in the GT4 forum...we've just discovered fire, so go easy on us

Jamie@dundonmotorsports

It will be for sure, I'm sure you guys will have a good time...

As I'm a numbers guy, I did some of the math to try and level the 10.904 our Qatar customer laid down to the 10.62ET you did. Conditions are very different, so not really so easy to compare directly, but drag times has some good air density calculators, so I used them, and they have a "corrected ET" that is likely off a bit due to how sensitive we already know the RS is to elevated temps, but is worth a look either way.

Interested in seeing the 2 of you for it. Try to pick a cool night so the numbers are still impressive!

This made me smile. Alot. Have been keeping an eye out over on the GT4 forum. Those fires a pretty bright given the amount of timber you are using :-). Took the GT4 to the track yesterday. Faster than it seems from the drivers seAt. Behaved quite differently on the limit. Fun...

Is anyone accounting for how many stickers Phil has on his car though?... those could add some serious speed which you'd then need to calculate for... consider the added weight of the stickers against their added performance potential?

For example, in exhibit A from our Smokies track day below, Phil's car won the sound-off, purely on account of his stickers...


All jokes aside, I forgot to remind the contestants below to pull in both paddles so that their rev limiters would shut off.. as it was both cars were in Park with no one touching the paddles so the revs stayed very meek in comparison to what could have been

Jamie@dundonmotorsports

Phil is Race, Lava (Alvin) is Catted

John@Fabspeed

Let me know when you guys are going, would love to run my tiny little 3.4L and see what it can do haha

ShakeNBake

Good times we live in to have so many fun cars.

tonymission

Is Phil really less than 275 pounds though? Has to be pretty even there

sgroer

Why the hell didn't we do this at the Smokies airstrip last Saturday? Time the runs down the strip. Ugh!
