wow 40hp added and 2700 lbs cay s? it should be as fast as GT3's.
you two should convince fort, that i need too drive his car and make cayman owners proud :-)

171mph, i think your car would be faster than mine even if you had no tires on the car or wheels.
mike, teltale, you'll see 171 go way wide at T1, then you know his tires are GONE.

171mph would be faster then us if he was on foot. He's the "Roadrunner" disquised as 171mph. He may go wide on t1 but if u see me snap 90 degrees at t1 I just misshifted again : (. See u guys tomorrow. Mike

171's GT3 held off a bunch of 600hp nascars in the race !!!
was less than a second slower than a viper comp coupe.

i got to 207 in BSR over top of T5. then i got eric's fking partial throttle issue. then the loud pedal sort of fell off...... we zip tied it for now ;-) that's not gonna stop me from driving it. so far, 480 trk miles in 3 consecutive days.

sheet. looked out hotel window. DRY... oh yeah....

Hope driving for one session in my gt3 make u get another one so 171mph/you and me can duke it out : ). 171mph- u make me a better driver- really likey your mad driving skills- we had some friendly encounters. The race was awesome. Nice meeting u Backmarker- hope the wing shims install helped. Joe too bad lap belt came off - I kinda like giving passenger rides once in awhile- there's always next time. Mike ps- I'm still pissed I could not do Saturday- damn associate!!!!!

so, just b/c i am driving with absolute no front pads in the race or the qual? well the left side had no pads, the right side had about 1mm left. the car pulls to one side when i brake hard. but just drive around it. but when i had to pump 3x and still almost flew off front straight....i thought it's time to pull over....

right, chewing his bumper off with me in your car is pretty "friendly".

Hell Mooty when bsr with no brakes(day over)- I asked u if want to drive my car for one session- it was the quickest response of a yes I ever heard( 171mph and I chuckled) and thereafter u started adjusting the seat and harness right away(threw my helmet and gloves OUT and IN with your helmet and gloves)- LOL. I think u figured out the 6gt3 no matter which one u drive fits u like a glove. Good going bro!!!! This season will be fun- yeehah!!!! You got best of both worlds now- race with bsr and de/tt/race with 6gt3- just awesome. Just dont let me know when u stripping the 6gt3- I may soon follow( wifey won't likey). Mike
