Haha, I can dream!

Those were good times with the CGT at Pacific Raceways and Mission. Never had a chance to put R-comps on the car. The MPS2's were doing that car zero justice.

Tim, you should consider a CGT someday. Still the most connected car I've ever had the pleasure of driving. Howling along the sea-to-sky are memories etched into my brain forever.

Thanks CRex - PM sent.

I've had a chance to drive the Shanghai track a few times casually. And attended the F1 events in the past. Certainly world class facilities!! With the overwhelming weather in China, not a shock on he quality of cars & infrastructure.

Can you elaborate what you mean by driver standards? Quality of drivers? Or safety?

Steve, rather than hunt for a super deal RS stateside, perhaps looks for a killer 996 GT3 deal...

not a whole lot of money to tie up compared to 997.2RS and with lower price point you can most likely sell it in september or even lease it out

the bullet rental program also sounds fun! great way to get your feet wet in a full cage car.


996GT3 track ready and investment quality. vola'

Totally agree with you guys. Wife did not appreciate the 6.2 GT3. Thinks I'm retarded to go backwards.

I'm in no rush for a car between now and early June. So, I might just take my time and find the right 6.2 GT3. I felt that the 6.2 Gt3 got me to be a much better driver and I had my fondest memory with it too.
