Thank you Josh!!!

When I found this car I knew I didn't need to step up and into a 997.2 RS, because it came pre-modded with all of the best track track goodies (RS R&P, 4.0LRS Clutch and LW flywheel, Welded coolant pipes, a good start on suspension upgrades, and a half cage with GT2 sport buckets...). I just needed to finish the suspension, upgrade the brakes (coming up next !!!) and lose the Centerlocks.

Here is another version of the above photo, taken by my friend Terry with a much better iphone than mine.....LOL!

My intel tells me that the RE-71R works very well once up to temp"......I am going go with set and burn them up....I have no problem running with the nannies off.
Doug, RE71Rs are magical tires. I've run many, many fast laps on them in my GT4. Great in the wet after track days and last 25-30% more HCs than any other tire that I've tried running. You won't be disappointed!

You gonna make it out to SMMR for the PCA LV event in Nov?

Truly freaking awesome. Both mods and aesthetics. Are those Forgelines? They look perfect on the car.

Hey Martin, I decided at the last minute to not run the RE-71R for a start for several reasons....(they will get on there soon enough, so not to worry!).....I am testing another tire first, more on this coming soon.
Yes, I should see you in November at the PCA event! ....On an least one of the days.....Did you go to Salt Lake?
