On the PPF, I’ve been told you need to let the respray cure for a few months before applying it. Worst case is it peels off the paint if you remove it.

Thx.

Well my respray was out of a can so maybe it will be better . If the ppf ever comes off im sure it will be because i did something bad to the bumper and it would needs painted again anyways.

Congrats and welcome to the instructor corps! It's very rewarding and I find it helps improve my own driving as I am constantly emphasizing and reinforcing proper driving techniques with my students which forces me to apply those techniques in my own driving.

Drives just like your gt3ish, shift at 5800-6000 because the small turbos I have give up above that, but you have at least 400 ft/lb from 3000 up so it doesn't matter.
Maybe I can hit NJMP sometime this year, really want to.
