Once I learn how to drive, maybe. Potter is faster in his Spec Box than I am in the GT3. How embarrassing would it be if he's STILL faster with my car gutted!

^nitrous and turbo in potter's ***** not car. No need to gut at this point. If your times are slower then a bsr even with potter at the helm- just do more trackdays. And besides who cares bout getting embarassed at the track- u develop lotta redmist- ain't good. Mike

You gotta have thick skin when you get passed by spec e30s I'd like to find 3 seconds at laguna and thill (1:43s and 2:04s best so far).

Try a professional driving coach. I've had various generic instructors in the past who have taught me a lot but on Monday I hired a pro who really knows these cars. WOW! In one day I learned a ton. I've booked him for 4 more days this summer and I can't wait!

^ Good lines : ). Don't know how grippy your yokos vs ps2's. I ran 2:02 with bypass on ps2's way back when. Maybe less deep into t11-too much steering angle- trailbrake there to point nose rather then using all steering. More early throttle on exit. Other then that nice job. Mike
