It was fun experience, KJ. This is my second time on same track with GT3 and I learned a lot. Placed 5th in my class. I ended up faster than C6 Z06 which was also in my class along side with lots of highly modified S2000s.
Here are more pictures from the actual time trial.
Friend of mine with the camera got me catching air.

Ken,
You look so much taller in the picture with your car on the air. It means that what lots of friends have been saying is correct. We need harnesses and rollbars.
Those tail pipes look like FabSpeed muffler bypass pipes. Did you notice the colder engine temperatures?

Good eyes, Rad. My head was touching the roof in that picture. 3 points belts can't hold me in tight enough. And, stock GT3 suspension seem very lose compare to my M3. Yes, tail pipes are FB muffler bypass pipes and yes, I noticed the cooler engine temps. I was VERY surprised and happy. Only wish it is not too loud for the street. I used those tires and rims that I bought from you and tires need forever to heat up. I guess they are little bit old and being MPSC?

Most likely they are heat cycled to death.

Ken,
MPSC are not the tires for Time Attack. They need 2 laps to get some temperature when new. When used, they need another lap. I did not use them on the track, so their track time is per the previous owner.
Get a set of R1/R6. If you need to drive to the event on your track tires, then use Toyo R888 (RA1 sizes don't fit the stock 996 GT3).
