Is CFRA a good group to run with? Any caveats (e.g., crowded, requires secret handshake or no passing in turns)?

I'm running in A, #743. We actually met 2 years ago at Laguna. I was driving a 996 GT3 at the time and you asked me some questions about my cage from TC Design for your turbo. By the way, congrats on new car! Let's make sure we line-up together for at least one session.

It will be hot out there. . .

Good group, not crowded, open passing, just need to be invited by a member.

As long as you are a safe and considerate driver during your "trial first track day", they will make you a member.

Should be a good one guys- a bit hot however! This will be my first time at SP in the 3. I found I was a bit faster in the 3 at THill then in my 6TT but quite a bit slower at LS. I'm hoping for similar times at SP as the TT, but we'll see!

What's your goal time?

Great group, tell Chasen to stick that bar in and lemme drive the 991GT3. I'll be there, group A # 0101.

I know the secret handshake, just show up

Our GT2 field got more competitive this year when they dropped the power to weight ratio. It means that most cars can now bump to Hoosiers and still make the cut. I'm running NTs and in my 4th day with them. Wondering what Danny is bringing on his stripper 6-3. He is a hell of a bunny and can drive the wheels off that thing!
