I would be happy to see her striped as I was faced with that same decision, cup or strip. Decided I want to got REALLY fast and went with the radical

may cage guys dont do knee bars. you need it.
to get it right, you REALLY need to roof skin taken off.
there are a lot of custom work you can't see and that's what cost money
I have a fire system in my garage if you need.

Vic- which one(fe) and how much? Hopefully someone here in norcal decides to buy your former car and gets some stripper therapy. That would make 4 strippers : ). Mike

low-ball the traitor!

He should give it to you for free, you keep the 6 flag up while he is cheating and using downforce to turn.

Real drivers don't need downforce. Take off the ugly plastic bodywork from the Rdl and try passing a GT3.


ps. Vic missed you man.

Why does a cup car get bumped automatically to GTS5? Isn't it based on power to weight? Sory for the OT post. Sounds like a great car. Would be the perfect track day car. Let me know if you are interested in a trade for a race car. (maybe a 997 cup, spec boxter)

Hey - take this business to pm!

Cory - it is an awesome track car. Been enjoying it for the past 2 days at VIR. Absolute blast! Cup cars take a penalty with NASA in ST class. Otherwise in GTS it is all power to weight. Still debating on moving to a full race car. I know you have some pretty cool stuff there in Charleston!
