Trakcar, you always kill me. I can't wait until I'm down in FL on a permanent basis. You guys are a bunch of fun.

Honestly, that brake point was the bravest/most optimistic thing I'd seen at Canada Corner in a long time... :P

TRAKCAR

Haha, I aim to please but often miss ;-)

I honestly dont conscientiously know any marks on the track.
I dont crash a lot so obviously I do know somehow, but I could not tell you.

Not scared = gas
Scared = brake

I've spend days at the track prior te getting in the car with a student and those first laps are the first time I see any marks LOL..

Video?

I was really diggin' the Blue Porsche. It really got me thinking about older 911s...
It looked and sounded great! The rumble bee was keeping it at bay however

First off.....the "Rumble Chicken" is on slicks.....im on R6. Biggest R6 they make in 16" is 275.....so car is tail happy

A few sessions later Mike puts Hoosiers on the 996.....now who is holding who up? Then in turn 17 the rumble chicken on slicks slides in on the inside and I have to play catch the antique LOL

996FLT6

Did 2 seasons with hoo hoo's. Going kuhmo this season. Never with hoo hoo's I could match my kuhmo laptimes. For me hoo hoo's
were abit temperamental. Sometimes it sticks like glue and sometimes it doesn't. Lotta people like r6's but it hasn't happened for me. Mike

Slicks, R6 both cheater tires, but the slicks are of course on a completely different level...

Looks like you guys had a lot of fun..
Schlumphie sounds racey, too bad the vbox does not show what gear you are in.

You can tell Clarke was not there because all the cones are still at the apexes and track out...

I had to goto R6......911 in HSR 3I are allowed to run R6 for Mity so we were practicing with in class tires

Nice driving randy, I'm sure it took a lil while getting use to going down to 1st gear on the track

Used pirelli slicks I bought on the intraweb. We know I'm too cheap to buy new slicks.

You can if you keep running them. Used slicks are cheaper than new hoosiers, and probably on par with nittos when you compare cycles to cycles. It's a pretty good deal if you can find them from someone reputable.

Keeping it bay? Child's play walking Randy in his model T racer.

I always thought the hoosiers were way faster than the Kumhos. Weird that he slowed down. Unless they were cycled out. I've run them both and didn't like the kumho. R6 was addictive in comparison.

Might as well throw my video in too.

Like I mentioned above, used Pirelli slicks I got on the web. Unknown heat cycles. Decent tread though. 65 on the durometer, so a little hard. Undersized fit. Totally stretched on the 12' rim despite being a 305. One inch smaller than comparable hoosier rear and a half inch smaller than comparable hoosier front. Would love to figure out what the proper fitment is and find a set of those. Used of course

Temp 88

Car is stock. Except for wing, LSD, exhaust, tune, lithium battery, and solid mount susp pieces, and shifter, and trailer hitch

Easily repeatable 218's all weekend along. Got a 217.8 at one point on my display, still looking for that one in the data.

Hoosiers were on because I got a flat on kuhmos which were spent anyway. Hoosiers were my brick spares cycled out. Just like the other 996 flt6 mike I never could better my kuhmos times with Hoosiers. Car was set up with kuhmos so perhaps Hoosiers need different setup. I have 2 sets of knock off slicks Pirelli which are about 2 sec faster than kuhmos. Taking rumble bee down at pboc.

By the way. tough day. I had a friend fly down from ny first time on track as my student in MY car. Was a blast.

Deputy does not fully trust his slicks yet and the Rumble Chicken has some room to go faster still!

I guess it's on :-) Everyone will be running 4.0 times..
PBOC Homestead this weekend?
