Pete, I love how you gently kiss the curbs in that front bumper video. Sweet!

You guys are making me so jealous.
Thanks, Lar! Wish you had been there; it would have been epic! Hope you'll get your track gear sorted out ASAP.

Absolutely awesome. Dunno about the "zone"; still just trying to get the hang of things… Seeing as I was holding you up most of the laps (until the inevitable point-by), I think you were the cat playing with a feeble mouse Not that it wasn't fun for the mouse.

How would you say the pull on the 3.9 compares to the 3.8RS?

Looks like his 3.9 is still pretty strong vs. the 3.8 (at 7:30 in, watch the straight away ), that car's screaming for a single mass FW and exhaust!

That is very impressive... provided that Savy was WOT, but still

Concerning the LWFW, post #17 implies that it already has it

Check and check. AFAIK, the LWFW was installed as part of this, and the car has a GMG exhaust now.

Come to think of it, I forgot to set the car in sports mode for every single session, just due to mismatched (PDK vs. clutch) muscle memory

Glad it has an exhaust now. It did have a LWF for one event but was switched out to a dual mass shortly after. Unless it was changed back to LWF later, it still has that 28 pounder afaik. glad to see it's being driven on a track still.
