It was a good track day up until I cut my rear tire...

Your driving is very good and fast. I think I am driving a gear too high in some sections and will try your way next time.

Just coordinate with us here, there's quite a few of us that regularly go to the Turn 2 events. More track time and typically open track in the afternoon...

I'm sorry you lost the tire, did you find the tire that fit ur wheels? I was there waiting for you and you didn't come back till 6 then I left.

We drove around but no tire store has 325/30/19 or anything that came close.
I stayed one more night in Shelton.
Next day the Track owner Rod was able to find me a junk tire somewhere in Seattle or Olympia, a Pirelli Trofeo, in the right size. Mounted it and drove back to Van.
I will bring a spare wheel and tire next time.

Good eye Scott! That's her, happy and well in her natural environment. Not me in the pic though. That's the owner of the white '10 RS next to mine.

Scheduled for turn 2 on May 17, I see three other .2 RS, plus 2 996 GT3's so far. Looking better, not like this last event, but better than my usual. I'll start a seperate post for a roll call.
