I think we were in different run groups, or I did not see you on track.
There was a red scuderia that was faster than me, but I don't remember seeing other Ferrari's on track.

Nice video and driving, but.... short sleeves and no gloves is not an ideal situation. Safety first speed second.

In South Florida we are always begging for no long pants and no long sleeves; What would they do anyway?! I do have a roll bar, Hans, 6 point belts and seats, I think they do mnore than clothing.

I do have a fire suit for in the winter time, but that is way too hot in the humid Florida summer. Cool suit would work, but not while in the students' car.

Yes, there was another white GT3.
I remember the Scuderia as pretty aggresive, but I think I gave him a point by everywhere.

Hey guys, just saw the note about my times and the Motons. They were brand new on Saturday and was trying to get them dialed in all day. Nothing worked. Turned out the tires were done. Put new R6s on Sunday morning and quickly turned the sub 1:36. We never even adjusted the Motons, as it started raining thereafter . Hope to do some tuning at the BMW club racing school later in the month. Pretty sure I can get sub 1:35. Hope so anyhow. Those Motons are expensive.

FWIW, my best time before the Motons was a 1:36.4, so they seem to be helpful already. More to come...

I guess 1:373 was pretty quick in a GT3, it has been a year and I was hoping for a few seconds faster in the RS. is was superhot, that did not help, but I was on fresh RA1's..

My best laptime this weekend was a 1:3704 and I tried hard.

For the incredably bored only:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bfnY7hrZjaA lap 3-8 (A couple of 1:37’s)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MwEw5P2K36c 9-14 (Fastest lap for me this weekend lap 10 1.3704) Lap 11 (3:30 was about as exciting as it got this weekend.)

Great meeting some of you!
There were some awesome drivers there, I have a lot to learn at Road ATL still

O, I have no idea what's up with the camera at the end of the straight!

Nasa TT'ers are cheaters
But cheatin' is racin' :-)

The RS would be TTU or TTR I suppose, I guess with slicks it is possible, as long as I am not behind the wheel LOL.
My Mustang would be a TTB and it will never run a 1:37...
