Agreed on the masochistic part. PCA race at Mosport this weekend and... I don't think I'm ever going to be a racer. Yeah would be fun to drive, but heck, you should see the setups: stackers, full crew, a whole village setup for a few days, just like a rock show with all the roadies. A bit overwhelming.

Again, no cheater just a well setup momentum car Until the next step, which will be gearing.

Yup, racing is feeding ego while working harder then your first job, so it is like a bad 2nd job, except you pay instead of earn. Accomodations are like camping, except it is noisy and you will be frustrated until the finish flag. If you win that is, if not it all is frustrating and expensive..

Now, DE guys... We got that Carpe Diem thing down pat.
Drive if we feel like it, enter the Traqmate FLATOUR world championship and if you are too slow it means you did not yet drink enough.. 3 more vodka's and you are right there on the podium if it wasn't for the slow traffic, tires, pads or whatever sounds good....

Again, no cheater just a well setup momentum car Until the next step, which will be gearing.
Allow me to translate cheater to FL laguage; You are cheater = You are faster then me :-)

Toooo funny I wish it was true.

Me nothing, previous owner lots, actually everything (I got lucky). It has all the standard stuff, but it's done right. Cup suspension (including sub-frames), Fabspeed headers, ECU tune, Cup shifter + cables, etc. All the stuff that you all know about...

...But as I said, "it's done right"!

However, previous owner also had a cup box, which was removed when the car was traded in, so that will be the next, and last, step to make it complete again. Until then, it really is a momentum car (yeah, I know that they all are, but the 996 GT3 with standard gearing, more so)

Well I was seriously blown away when you gave me a ride in the RS, so I don't know if it handles any better. The laughing you heard around the track was REAL.

I DO know that it handles fantastic!!! Built/prepared by local "magician" Gianni Panico. His shop is Fiorano Racing. I think that he has one recipe, and it's the right one. All his cars have the same basic set up and are fast, well balanced, incredibly communicative, and a just a dream to drive.

BTW, just put on my first ever set of Hoosiers today, and during ALL of the first session with the new tires, I was signing to myself "Lean on Me"... really. Don't know where that came from

Don't know for sure, but lots. PM the guys on here who have installed them. Somehow, they never seem to come up for sale.

You've got to know someone who knows someone...

I wish I saw this car about a week ago! Would have saved me some $$$.
And been a bit more inconspicuous!

Not looking for an RS by any chance?
