Bob, just put the PSCs on and see what happens.
I can guarantee you one thing. It won't be as bad as the [big quotes sign with both hands]Pilot Sport Cup[/big quotes sign with both hands] tires that the car came with.
And if it doesn't work out you'll have your excuse right there.

Hi, it's the guy that put together the videos here. Thanks for the compliments and criticism. The audio I captured would not have done the cars justice (poopy) so I decided not to artificially amplify the audio. And for shooting too much of the orange one, it was the only one that didn't pack up and leave so fast after the day's runs, so I had some time to get some fun angles.

Thanks again,
Will

That's what I'm worried about. I think that the cups will want more camber than I have in the car right now. Not sure how that will impact lap times but I'm sure that the tires will take a beating. Slap on the R6's and go to town. We can always experiment next year!

Didn't you guys hear about the convention in Calabogie of new fathers looking to improve their diaper changing skills? It's a one day intense seminar. Only bringing the trailer to test the new tow vehicle is safe for junior.
2:07 eh? I'll see if I can give that a shot, hopefully without exposing any internals.

Default Porsche, Ferrari, Porsche, Ferrari...

Ah, well I picked up the Ferrari yesterday and it has a Tubi see... and well I kinda fell head over heels for it yet again... so well for now the Ferrari stays... OK, Adam I am sure you are falling off your chair at this one. See some of you tomorrow in Calabogie and the Ferrari will be coming see the rest of you in Tremblant but not with the Ferrari with the now very well aligned 968. Thank you Jason and Auto Import for taking good care of the 968 while it was at your shop.
