Since you are somewhat involved with PBOC....im new at this but I have a recommendation.....once race group for every car is a bit dangerous. They should try to have somewhat equal speed cars on track....not a 40 plus sec differential between the fastest and slowest car

I happen to know this in detail because I was the guy driving the goddamned 991. What's that Vette have, 3,200 HP or what ?

Second race started 9th but tried/failed shortcut bishops. Loopdeloop thru 15 into grass back on track after a whole bunch went by me...
Emtech suspension is freaking awesome. Over curbs barely feel a bump. Car catches itself if it gets loose. Amazing.
track faster sunday. Think 2:11 possible. Now need lose more weight maybe carbon doors get to 2:10. Then 4.0 engine under 2:10 lol.
sad to see Silver Bullet go away. Will miss that car.
really enjoyed long 6 hour enduro even in rain. Drove half the race and want to do it again tomorrow.
tons o fun with the gang fantastic weekend. Lots of RLers some new some old too many to list.
Thanks pboc, Zotz racing, and Autoquest.
let's do it again next week.

I was happy that my client in the #8 white Vette passed that 991 Cup and won the race, though

I'd love to see that vette run against u at Barber, mid ohio or somewhere like that

Better yet see it make a 90 min enduro without puking some sort of fluid

You must have coached Kennedy up real good, he was driving far below that car's potential for a while. I was shocked to see that 2:08 on race monitor from him and that he won the race. I thought one of the Leonards must have taken over.

I'm sure he want's to hire you all of the time now!





Barber might not be a good idea. It's the guys home track, where the car is tested and developed. Speedsouth runs mid-upper 1:20's in their similarly prepared C6. It will still be super fast there.

That was right in line with the pace of the faster driver in the class-leading Cayman, my pro friend John Lewis. But those 16 laps could not be gotten back. Besides endless mud and schmutzy glare on the windshield, once we got back in the race, the car was fantastic.

Tomorrow we start working with your data and video.
