nice driving mmuller, your car looks really dialed in. you could even grab 6th gear on the back straight and brake a tad bit deeper with trail brake all the way up the hill

I think I can get Blackie (2010 GT3 PCA stock K class) on a new set of sticker Hoosiers under 2 minutes with cool weather. Qualifying last summer it was HOT when I did 2:01.077.
Also Blackie still has A/C and NAV and CD/stereo -- it is about 100 pounds overweight for its class.

Thanks for the feedback guys. I was happy given it was my second visit only there and I only started DE last year (25 days last year, 55 this year)
The car works real well for sure. Coilovers are stock and have never been rebuilt, but the entire lower suspension is RSS Tarmac series, which made a massive difference. No need to shift to 6th, as it makes linear power all the way to 8800 limiter. Shifting just adds more step. I could brake later (I brake my SPB at the turtles at the top of the hill, but its going slower), but the tires had 30 hc on them by the time I was pushing that hard and I didn't want to ruin a weekend. Fresh tires there would make a big difference.
This is my first set of Hoosiers to and had been run at WGI for 2 days already. Been running Toyo R888's till now as I share the car with my wife. Building a new car for myself now......

Some more stuff since then, like the front section of the Motorsport cage. Most just added weight and safety.

8800 rpm in a '6 GT3? You have cams? - info please. Are you re-geared as well? I think I remember reading one of your other threads where the car is under 2700 lbs right? Didn't remember the power was that high though that's like 25-30 more HP at the wheels than my car makes...and LOTS lighter. Must be one hell of a fun car to drive.
The car is definitely healthy.
The RSR Replica will be just for DE..... For now.......
