So true. PCA at VIR was an eye opener for me as far as driver skill level in racing.

Not sure about the antique being slow. Plenty of 996 CUP's and a few 997's in the rearview at VIR in June.
like we say in banking, go big,or go home. u default 1mil, u b foreclosed, u default 100 mil, we will bail u out. total the car hit wall a few times and roll it baby.

randy and I are buds. I was pulling his leg. he will be lapping my cup in his antique.

Ive been doing some research on antique....will be adding a few mods for the day reter gets his cup so I can pass him

-fill engine with more lightweight titanium
-billet crank
-extreme heads
-Hewlad transmission with dog cut gear
-replace heavy steel door with carbon (antique will be south of 1,900 lbs)
-incease rear tire from 275 to 335, make those slicks
-front and rear aero

this should get the antique sub 2:15 easy at Sebring

It'll be good to see you guys get the band back together. Lack of trash talk around here is getting boring.

Agreed. Your .2 white and my .2 black, anyone want to buy a pair? You can have your own Spy vs Spy game.

I blame Greek, Izzone, and DD in that Order. Margaritas on Greek at Lime.
