Sweet smell of maple syrup after a hard flogging on the track. Here are the details:
- 4500 miles on the car
- Sharkwerks center delete installed by my indy last week (along with oil change)
- Drove car from Nashville to AMP this AM (240 miles)
- Set my personal best (1:39) before lunch!
- Couple more sets of laps
- Noticed the smell and the leaking after the final session
- Didn't see any signs that it was overheating
Had it towed to Hennessy because that seemed like the safe move and Porsche pays for it.
I'm hoping the Sharkwerks install is a red herring, but I'm worried. I guess they'll tell me tomorrow what the deal is, but I'd love to hear your guys' thoughts this evening.

I thought I remembered posts about coolant leaking out of the fill cap hose early on in GT3 life. Your spot on the ground would be on the correct side. Did you open engine cover and investigate a little?

Solved (and easy) - Coolant overfill. Odd given it was filled at the factory or PDI but so be it.
Big shout out for Hennessy Porsche who had already e-mailed me at 6:30 am and had me back in the car by 10 am. This after it being dropped by roadside asst. after hours last night. Amazing service.
