Ive never driven a GT3 at Sebring, but I have done 2:25s in a 993...can't wait to get it together and run with you guys.
Nice vids Randy...
Fiat sound is intoxicating...and then some.

aero beetles are 7.2 rs', so no need to over-extend.

Mike, you better invest in some magic dust, because we are only going to get faster....

Mike, it is a long shot to get those times with a Carrera GTS, it needs a lot more power, and less weight, plus aero help.
However, a lightly modified 997.2 Turbo S PDK can get the job done.

Yep a pro driver works hard to even get 2:26 out of my car. Reeves in Tampa has a nice new Turbo S PDK sitting on the floor...wrong seats though but I wonder what that car would do at Sebring...LOL

Who would have thought any thread started by the greek would have gone more than 1 page?
Yeah, its official. He's got me by .02 seconds at this point. I have no excuses. He out drove me.

Incorrect Sir
I'm still rolling in my .1 non-RS model. The underdog if you will

Funny you should mention absinthe... Rad brought some to Sebring last weekend. I tried it for the first and last time. I slammed a 3-4 ounce shot. Tasted like ****e. I would rather chug C16 as it's probably safer
