Nice to finally see some pics and can't wait to see Geisha in person next week at Sebring. Cocktails Friday night at the Chateau?

Don't worry Mike, you'll still be faster than me until I learn how to drive the car

Thanks Mike! I think you'll be seeing my black gloves giving you the point by for a while. Then you'll see my in your rear view mirror waving you by

I've got a lot to learn on Sebring, I'll be slow for a while still

I hardly have any ego...but I know I'm a decent driver and learning all the time. I am fast for a Carrera S with no aero and stock car but you guys in the GT3 and GT3 RS are a good 6 seconds a lap faster than I am. I will do some 2:28's in the perfect senario and yes I have given guys in GT3 and RS's a fit and even had some come seek me out and ask if I have a supercharger or turbo. But the going rate for RS's seems to be in the :22 range with Reter setting the bar with 20's and GT3's are only a second or 2 behind that.

The Red Bomber gets a alignment and new tires Friday...yep the much hated R888's this Friday. I hate new new tires for a track day and I know how much you all hate R888's but there is nothing else to choose in 18" that I can drive to the track on.
