Mike, you would be pretty close and may do it. Remember you can draft us on the straight ;-)

With those tires 2:15 in a Fiat shouldn't be an issue

The Fiat should now be referred to as the Dodge Scud

On a bone stock GT3 RS 3.8 (235/325 MPSC tires) Reter won't be able to break under 2:21, and likely to be in the 2:22s range, and a Pro Driver would be in the 2:20s.

Which tires should I use for Sebring to improve lap times by 7 secs compared to the stock Pirelli Corsa System? I want some of those, really.

The same tires should good for your Aero Beetle to post a 2:13, given than stock vs. stock the Fiat is 2 secs slower at Sebring. Oh wait, you have the trick cheater parts, so make that a 2:12 on those tires you found. Please, send me the link to those magic tires I really want them.

Getting ready to order my new wheels for my new wanna be GT3RS I have choices... R888 MPSC Pirelli Corsa and Trofeo.... I drive to and from the track.

I'm pretty sure I'm going with 19" wheels due to more tire choices now. So staying with stock size 235/305 I've been told to go with 8.5x19 and 11.5x19. I was told 19"x12 with 305 is not good.... ?????

Thank you, I don't have ESPN2 I think on Directv, but Tivo will record it for me if it shows up.

ICRS, so I thought fancy Fiat was faster, no? I thought already faster then my 2:19 in ideal conditions like mine and you did not even get enough practice at Sebring to be really fast yet....

Nobody can read data and knows car times better then Rad, he will sniff out sand bagging in no time flat.. I might stay close enough to wait for the Fiat to run out of brakes or breaks.
