Psst everyone..........did you know John first showed up at the track circa 2000 with a Miata?

And about Tony--he pulled a 1:34 (in the '33s by the data on theoretical best lap) yesterday in Joe's E36 M3. And it's a lowly GTS3 car with 250 wheel HP @ 2750 lbs. on DOTs.

Great track for a 996 GT-3. The gearing in this car allows lots of 3rd gear stretching. I miss my 996 in turns 5-6. 131 at the braking zone and up the hill. NO black flag for sound either

I will be there, also. Look for me in the bright green Cayman S, #62. Should be a perfect day there!

+1 on TC not only can they square away your car but also offer great advice. My fat 6T with PSS9s out down a 1:40.9 a few months back. Keeps getting faster every time!
