What did you do to your 996TT today?

Started redoing my driveways as my car is now so much lower it will scrape quite a bit on any entry and exit... BTW Tim left the Ohlins set up on the highest possible yet correctly weighted settings and alignment so I would hate TO SEE it and my driveway FIGHT if it was on the lowest settings

put down second coat of epoxy on the garage floor
Installer for Mohawk lifts comes tomorrow to test drill the floor to ensure it will support a lift. If the floor passes I will have a lift soon
I have 10.5 ft ceilings in the garage which limits my choices. I also am becoming rather militant about buying American made products (except for cars ). I was down to Rotary and Mohawk, but the American made Rotary product won't fit, so my choice was made for me. Kind of excited.

No. It was hot. The temps today were pushing 90F. When it's a bit cooler, this is going to be a very very fast set up. I was about 2 sec off my personal best. We are doing time trials tomorrow.. Here is a picture of the car just coming out of a turn pulling right at 1.3Gs. You can see that even with 1400/1500 rates there is plenty of lean under load. After 2 full track days I truly think that 1700/1800 will ultimately be the optimum no holds barred set up..

On a sad note, he was diagnosed with colon cancer just 2 months back and died shortly after surgery on Monday night.
Just turned 50. Life is short guys.

I had my nose off for cleaning just a couple of weeks ago and I was all set to install mesh and then decided not too. I have been using a long cardboard tube on the end of a vacuum to suck out the radiators from time to time and it worked better than I thought so I am leaving the mesh off and will continue to vacuum.
