Going fast... now why would anyone dream of doing that in a GT3?

Chris M, I heard you bolted on all that "Bling" to keep up(... or trying?) with the Montreal chapter of .6 3

Chris R, the GT2 plan is still on as long as I can figure out how to not get a divorce because of it!
Chris M, nice looking suspension I hope that you remember to corner balance the car with balast in the drivers seat!

The biggest difference I found with a functioning LSD was stability under hard, downhill braking. The tail doesn't wag anymore. It's rock solid. Powering out of the corner is much better too.
I'd do that before exhaust in a heartbeat.
997 GT3 RS .2 has more power, revised suspension and better gearing. Equal driver it should pull away as the suspension is better than 996 & 997 GT3/RS .1. Jim in his 997 GT3 RS .2 is as fast as Bruce's 996 GT3 Cup. Sick huh?
Motons and lack of rubber should help a lot. With revised gearing Perry was a 2:10 at Calabogie. Bruce in stock 996 GT3 was 2:17. Big difference. Perry's shocks were revalved Bilsteins. Not 2 Way adjustable Motons with 15 ranges of adjustment on rebound and compression. He also had a Cup gearbox though. Mine is stock.
I'm trying to keep the car interesting. I love the car but the stock suspension is too soft. Now it should be much better although street driving will suck. Now I can run slicks if I so choose. That's 2-3 sec. a lap.
Next is R&P and revised gearing.
I'm excited to try it out in April.
You gotta go to the Glen. You'd love it.

Chris R.
Thanks for th effor I have to be at the office for 6:00 every morning, so just make sure breakfeast is ready for me before I leave.
Chris M.
I wanted to do the same to my car I still might eventually, but I'll wait to see what you end up with on your car and go from there, if you will be able to keep up with the 997.2 rs's I'm doing the same to my car

My car is 100% stock apart from the toe links that I got (thanks dad!) and a BMC filter that was in the airbox when i bought it.
For comparison, in my Cayman S at Calabogie, I can turn a 2:22 in MPSC's. At tremblant I was running 1:53's best time but more consistent in the 1:54 range. My first day out in the GT3 I was running low 1:51's. If I can break into the high 1:48's I'll be happy with that.
