DE style. Seven 996 GT3, one 997 GT3 and my RS makes nine total. mooty's stripped and caged 6 GT3 was a monster. Several incidents on the track including Brad's 6 GT3 blew the main engine coolant hose which caused Serge's 6 GT3 to spin at T1 ... scary stuff. It's time to cage my RS
Fun watching the vidoe Mike and good save on the spin! You guys must have had a ton of fun. Now I need to find time to come down there one of these days!
Looks like a great group. I wish we could have those huge overhangs in the paddocks for the events here in the summer!

mooty got to Thunderhill first and parked his trailer across the cover paddock and save everyone parking space

Golden Gate Lotus Club let advance cars in the intermediate group too so we basically ran 12 sessions for the whole day. Everyone was beat and lost 5 lbs from sweat but what a adrenaline filled day. Once you drive the track here you just might sell your house and move to the Bay

Serge, did you clean all the weeds off your wheels after the spin at T1?

Thanks for posting the video. It looked like a great time.
Glad you avoided the dreaded T bone and very nice save from the leaking coolant.
Do you turnoff the driver's aids when you are on the track?
all off and driver on

Mike & Pete make sure you come out to Laguna with POC.... I want to give those RS's a run for their money!!!
Pete is going to be there with his Spyder. POC is too expensive for my blood plus it's all race and only 4 sessions of DE per day and cost more than $350?
Several incidents on the track including Brad's 6 GT3 blew the main engine coolant hose which caused Serge's 6 GT3 to spin at T1 ... scary stuff.
Are most folks running water wetter, or still using coolant? Too many reports of blown coolant hose/fitting issues and subsequent offs/spins to justify keeping real coolant in a GT3 run on the track IMO.
Very easy "mod":
1. purchase water wetter & distilled water
2. drain coolant, store in secure leak proof container (clean up any spilled coolant, especially if you have pets)
3. fill with water + water wetter
4. take old coolant to recycling center
5. go have fun at the track : )
