<strong>Flat on 7?!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="eek.gif" /> Sounds like you did have a great time and these little things are tons of fun! From the lap times you posted it looks like they run about the same as a C stock 993. That is pretty impressive I must say considering that full RSR's will run in the high 1.40's. Pretty cool
Nice description BTW, I felt like I was strapping in myself this morning, nahhh I know its a dream I'll never fit in there </strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana,Tahoma,Helvetica">Maybe equivalent lap times, but the impressive thing is to realize their corner speeds must be HIGHER than the C-stock 993 -- since there's not a lot of accelerating going on in the straightaways. But since there's essentially no body roll, and it's such a go-kart, I didn't think the corner speeds were much of a pucker factor.
Now, the new Sports Racer class, with 40% less weight (900 pounds!!) and 40% more horsepower, THAT would be some serious puckering!

The SRF did look quite fun -- I got to sit in the cockpit, blip the throttle and dream.

Three Wheelin'
Ben,
I'll see you @ MSR. I'm going to instruct & try to squeeze in a few sessions in the Supercup for grins. It will be the last outing 'til Fall. Texas Summers Suck!
Anybody else going?
