We will be around...most are in the lower numbered Blue garages. Search the thread, "what do GT3 rennlisters look like" that Deputy Dog posted.

However Deputy Dog and his side kick Manpurse will not be at Daytona because it's to fast for them.

Thanks a bunch now we will have to deal with them at RA in Nov. Since Trakcar isn't coming we will have to rely on IZZONE to keep them happy

Just got to Dayona.
First time after 2009 since re-paving.

Running 07 Toyo RA1's new, usually I run them hot at 34PSI or less wich means going out at 24-26PSI.
I've heard you need to run higher all around and I've heard only the right rear needs to be 3 PSI higher.

Planning on going out tomorrow at cold 28PSI all around and 30right rear. That should get me to 38 all around and 40 right rear, just to be safe(er) hot I will bleed them to 35 all around and 38 right rear.

I wonder if this makes sense, anyone got any suggestions?

I'm sure there is a reason for the right rear thing, but 'i' would think it would be opposite - ie that tire will heat up the most so it should start the lowest.

That is pretty much what I was told....run your tires psi a little higher than normal especially the right rear.

First day most fun flatout video ;-)

Even with the cheater GMG header and exhaust someone forgot to tell Grady that a GT3 is slower then an RS.
He's an awesome driver..

It's hard to say, he does have more power and all his **** points are different due to gearing but he is also on OEM MPSC, no LSD! :-)

And he brakes way late. He was overdriving the car, so out of the corner he was no faster but fun to watch :-)

great video, peter!
so smooth, man, the other guy was watching you in his mirrors for sure, always re-adjusting his lines and input!
he definitely had more top-end over 100mph.

Peter,

The car is 50 miles from where you are right now! It's in Orlando at Zotz racing. I signed up for Winterfest (lapping and racing), and then will sign up for the 48 hours. I can't wait!

Armando
