Nice to see the car being used as it was intended.

I have 6,500 on the 7GT3. it looks like I drove it down a gravel path every day and I need a new windshield. Not sure how you keep her so nice. Oregon roads have allot to do with it.

You guy's and all your track time, I need to move out of Oregon.

BTW the Protosports are toast...time for next set. Lasted about 15-18 days. How long did your first set last?

Peace

John gets such good mileage out of the tires (and other replaceables) because he's so darn slow.
It does look great though.

Mooty,
You may not have the highest mileage (although in the RS I think you do), but you have the most fun by a country mile. Make that the countries tracks!
