Your RS is at dealer for couple of days/weeks? Waiting on parts?

BTW, are those R888's on that golf cart?

I'd say that is about the only place an R888 is suited

At dealer yes, I will post if / when they do something

Tires are turf pro, I wouldn't put r888 on it, they would heatcycle out after two trips to clubhouse

Many thanks for the warm welcome. Let me try and get all my other winter plans sorted out here shortly. I certainly have wanted to do a winter track event for some time, but just need to work around some snowboarding and snowmobiling trips.

This certainly would be a lot of fun to do!

Haha, yes, I might as well just do car shows with the newly refreshed car.

Barber is too far away, but I'd go if I was not in the middle of debt restructuring situation (Spending wife's vacation money to pay off Amex)

We do need Ian to come instruct us for a day at Sebring. Will he instruct for beer?
