I get it for you the setup sheet on my iPad is out of date as we made some adjustments at MSR last session. Have not had any rubbing issues. We are running oz wheel to standard spec.

Good afternoon all. We are busy getting the car prepped for COTA next week. Installing a new Race Keeper system with i dash and three cameras. We are alo installing brake sensors to record this data and position information. Also modifying the rear fenders so that we can run 335 rears. Should have them installed tommorow. Will get some pictures on line.

I need to dig up the specs from my CCWs. I was able to run 255s up front without any rubbing issues and we ran GT2 ride height. The key to the fronts for me was having adjustable thrust bushings that allowed me to pull the caster out.
That said, the rears were 12.5 and I still couldn't get 335s to fit, even with rolling the fenders... This was with NT01s.

Well it didn't work with 335 at least for today. Rubbed, we have some ideas but need to focus on the COTA Setup. Will work on this in February when I have 2 weeks off track. Running COTA,TWS,TWS,COTA,MSR Cresson of the next 4 weeks. Gotta love Texas should be 65 this afternoon at MSR.

We can attest to that and frankly don't have the time this week and won't do it ian all if it's not 100%. Especially before a new track and one with the speed COTA can carry. Thanks for the reinforcement though glad to know its not our thinking process that the issue.

Well the GT2 got a real good shakedown at the Drivers Edge event this last weekend at COTA. the track went out of its way to make us feel welcome after the diaster in December (kinda like the Texans)
Anyway the car got to sleep overnight in a nice warm place previously occupied by someone else whose name is still above the door. Cool Deal![](https://rennlist.com/forums/members/vonschmidt-albums-new-to-me-gt2-saving-a-garage-queen-picture19965-my-little-gt2-where-the-big-boys-parked.jpg)
Cant wait to go back. The Phoenix was the first GT2 to ever drive COTA
