Ron Z. was great. He got me to a 1:36.5 and it was my first time at RA.

Ron driving my car.

 

What kind of tires on that run Steve?

 

Steve's running non-DE CUP spec tires. Fresh sticky bun ewwwwsers.


I about shat myself when Ron came blazing up on me in Steve's car. I was like.... What the what? Then I saw Ron's helmet bobbling around in the driver's seat and all was right in my universe again

 

Hoo's R6

Great Video Steve...thanks for posting!

 

I absolutely love what our GT3RS's are capable of--even bone stock (well, I have Demand rotors with Pagid yellows--only mod). My friend Leh Keen took me out in my car in Sept at Road Atlanta for a couple of fun laps and cut a 1.31.6 on MSS's.......that was a humbling experience...

 

Yep these GT3's are amazing cars....

a 1:31 os MPSS...dang that would be around a 1:27 on the Toyo RA1 R-Comps the guys here normally run

 

Yes, R6. If I had a choice, I would run something better than an R888 but more cost-effective than a R6.

Clarke, help me out here.

Great weekend. I would like to put that trip on the calendar in perpetuity. (Greek & El Matador, that means I would like to do it every year without end)

Although, next year has a COTA and VIR trip as a must.

I would like to give a big to Goldcrest Porsche for changing my wheels and adjusting the front sway bars. Great guys.

 

LOL, so Steve, you ran your bar harder in front as well?

 

What a great weekend and wish we had the entire group or maybe we should have all been with Nick!

Here is my best lap of 1:32.09 with the R6's :

Yes, one stiffer in front. Car felt more planted although it might cause an understeer issue at Sebring. Might have to move it back at Winterfest.

As a Florida boy, I couldn't figure out what this substance was on my car Sunday morning. Luckily, it went away.

 

Thats's beautiful Grady!
Exactly how I go around RA, but than again that's what you told me to do, you just do it almost 2 seconds faster LOL

No gear indicator on VBox?

 

Doubt he gets to 3 seconds away from cups with RA-1's. That would put him nearly equal to the cup on a set of Hoosier R6/A6. And I'm talking about the fastest lap driven in the stock cup at 1:24 (by Leh). Road Atlanta is not a huge tire deficit track because there is not a lot of steady state cornering. At leh's level of driving, there isn't as big of a gap either. He was only 3 seconds slower at VIR from MPSS all the way to R6 in the Topspeed GT-R 1:53-1:56.

 

Nice job! T6

 

Just compared to my T6, looks similar, anything aprticular you are looking at?

 

Ok thanks...didn't know Rd Atl was as tire dependent and maybe Leh's delta between RA1 and MPSS might not be as much. Cool...thanks.
