Here is a lil clip of when I had my mind made up to take it in to the pits after 11 laps and then I finally see another RS on track and think my tires are up for another few laps...they say otherwise

2:08 for worn out tires is quite good.

Are you running the Pirelli Ultimate Track Car Challenge in July at VIR?

I'll be busy with mancation in July so I don't think I'll be able to make that one rad. Only chance I may get to do VIR again is possibly 1st 2nd of July with chin but I highly doubt that one as well

Then here is the grand finale at the end of day 2 on same worn tires. Tired and ready to go home, but I just did a few 2:08's during this run and this was going to be my last lap. I just slid at this corner the previous lap and saved it but I lost this one and it happens to be my first ever spin in the RS...time to go home

Yes Richard does!
I still vividly remember riding along for a session last year, my first GT3 ride also.

Richard,
Was Eric out with his new Turbo? Details...
