Roberta - Tks, I saw that one earlier today. Like Nav, but PCCB and no sport buckets together are deal breakers for me.

Stephen, we miss you at Ridge this weekend. I thought you were going to stay on Sat.

Ed, you come to Ridge first, it is less driving distance.

I wish I could have stayed as well Tim. I was quite sick after driving on Friday - not sure if it's due to the rain / cold or if it's due to tasting the fun of my old 997.2 GT3 and getting back to the ISF.

Please post some videos of your day at the Ridge! The weather was just beautiful on Saturday.

#13 is mainly street use, no point to mod it.

GT3RS needs some "upgrades" to shine better at the track. Next mod may be Motons....

I think you should use Savyboy's 2010 997.2 GT3 RS Track-Day Special as a guide! You have a good start with the right color combo.

I got close to pulling the trigger on it; however, the technical issues with the title for importing and insuring, were just a bit too much to deal with.

Moton's are so nice. I have them in my car, and it is not bad on the street. We should do a swap one morning drive.

Stephen - sorry to hear...how about buy back your GT3?

Ed - I have driven Ryojo's 993TT with Motons and know how it behaves.
