Hey Michael, the CAB has the factory Tequipment Harness Rollbar. It is required to run at VIR. It fits beautifully and looks oh so sweet. Hard to tell, but here is a pic of the car from a recent event at CMP. Feel free to swing by the house anytime if you want.

Cheers,

Dell,

Larry's words ring true in his last couple of posts. Unwinding is key as you come rocketing out of corners.

Also, as Larry mentioned, I wouldn't mess with the brake bias right now. Just spec the alignment and get rid of those stock pads before you smoke your rotors.

All the way back to NC in those 'comfy' euro seats, eh? Let me know if you need me to hook you up with a good surgeon for an *** TRANSPLANT.


Chris L., we all need to hook up. Good times await up the esses...

dell: larry is 100%. I remember the first track day moving from my 2002 996. A corner that if I missed the mark and earlied it could push the car through the corner with a little left foot..... did not work with the GT3. It is a spectacular car! Try Austin at TRG for the wing that is where I got mine.

I'll do that... both to check out the cab and the "3". I'll bring my helmet and driving shoes as well...

(ya'all think he'll let me take it out for a spin?)

Shoot me a note sometime and let me know where you are.

Michael

Thanks! This is one great car. Gioel really took great care of it. It's nice to deal with somebody that loved the car the way you hope they did.

Can't wait to take her to the track
