Late response from me.

Peter - VR will be teaching my morning sessions at Homestead on Sunday. Thought it would be a good idea to get someone professional to tell me some tips on how to get faster. I feel like I've plateaued a bit.

VR - Peter's being awesome and ensuring I have a great time at my track events. He's welcome to take the car out whenever he wants. Not sure if he's registered for any sessions. Again, open offer Peter.

Confused indeed. Car going on the lift with offer standing and my offers pending on faster stuff, but I'm out of time I'm afraid. Being RS less is not an option I found out, I'd die from stress.
Sounds like a bad case of Mootyitis to me.

Default 4.0 Utopia

Trakcar, how about this: 2011 GT3RS 4.0 white w/ red/silver trim, black/red interior, black wheels.

Base $185,000
Black wheels 325
Axel lift 3490
Sound + 700
Sport chrono 690

Gas guzzler 1790

Destination 950

Total Price $192,855

Track Mods:

Full RSS Suspension Package
RSS Rear Cage, black
GMG Center Pipe
Shrothe Harnesses, both seats
JRZ Pro Shocks
Rays G12s (two sets) , bright silver & gloss black w/ silver highlights
One set Hoosier r6 (one heat cycle) one set Mich S/S (new)
Track alignment and set up by Topspeed Motorsports and Leh Keen.

Car as 1200+- miles including about 150mi track tuning and set up. Extra wheels are virtually new. Silver set have about 90Miles and black set are still in boxes. Shocks have just been installed. This car did 2:14s with Leh driving at Roebling w/o the new shock set up and on "used" Hoosiers. Front sides, part of top and wing have clear bra.

This car is about perfect and has absolutely no known flaws.

I have probably left some things out because I don't have records in front of me. Pics can be found on Rennlist - search: allans

I'm not sure I want to sell but, the price would have to be what I have in it, including labor. Probably about $230,000. I know it would cost a lot more $$$ and time
to duplicate.
If there is serious interest please let me know. Thanks, Allan. a1schuster@aol.com

Allan, I was interested but 2 days late.

Told the buyer of my second new 800 mile 3.8RS I could not sell due to no 4.0RS available.
Now the car is on the lift getting painted, suspension etc. etc. I will be back from mancation August first.

You guys are just messing with me, hours and days after I give up and lose my buyer

Awesome!!! Best of luck with the car Peter.

Subscribed. I love to live vicariously through others here on RL.

Dang... That is a 4.0 that is fully track ready. Turn-key track monster. Whew...

So two custom spec 4.0's available to buyers today eh? Why didn't Peter just wait a few days

Hey, I'm losing the will to leave over here, I posted April 30!

I can't help it you guys wait until AFTER I buy another RS, then resell it and sent the buyer packing burning the bridge.

Could no longer wait, I need a couple of weeks to finish my new car so I can test it at least one track day before I drive a couple thousand mile to the first Mancation track.

It is on the lift already in pieces.

There is always August.
Anyone want a 3.8RS fully track ready with 3000 miles or so in August?

Just saw this; Rear bumper is off, so we can install the Akrapovic carbon fiber accent, and also side muffler delete exhaust system.


BALLER!!!
