Ha ha! Well when SP car is a new 2019 and I dont want to hack up fenders that is rule at my house for now. I may roll them but likely will try to stay with stock fenders. Want to keep this car in street going condition with minimal invasive modifications. Mostly bolt ons etc. Coming out of FP/XP car builds im no stranger to what could be done.

I believe 991.2 cars which are all turbo should go to SSP. They should be equal to GT car since all GT car suspension bolts on to 991.2 and HP can be made equal.to most GT cars.

 

Man setting up 991.2 narrow body isnt for wimps. ....had to go with custom build Jongbloeds for my 19 wheels to fit over PCCBs - wont be ready until July . Had settled on 265/35/19 A7 for front. but now Hoosier discontinuing 265 in A7. I got a set of 265s from Tire rack but long term have to figure out solution that will fit under stock fender.. Only 235 or 295 in 19 inch A7s now. I think 235 will be too skinny to go up against gt3's that run 295 up front. I just dont want to hack up front fender to make 295 work. 265 will be tight fit. The tune on my car has made it much faster for sure. Ran in street tire index class with my Bridgestones streets in same heat as SSP cars and didnt do too badly compared to SSP cars running on A7s . I think turbo torque in 911 T is an advantage for sure. Car rips out of turns - truly quick now - just needs more rear grip. The increased power and street tires is rather fun to control.

 

Hi. I am getting back into AX. Are you still running your T in AX in 2020? What is your current setup and have you sorted out the wheel and alignment setup?

Many thanks,

Covid delayed the season but I have been able to drive a couple Golden Gate PCA events . First event car was able to set TTOD and 2nd PAX. As expected the low end torque of smaller turbos coupled with Carrera S gearing and shorter tires is awesome. Very easy to control as well. I have autocrossed quite a few forced induction cars and the Carrera T is one of easiest turbos to modulate power. It’s not on off like turbos of past.

Basic alignment specs are roughly -2.3 rear and -2.8 front Camber. Bit of toe out up front. The DSC active suspension controller with Tractive coilovers is a game changer. Car just stays hooked up . I did lower car about an inch. I may bring it up just a little.

315 and 265 A7 combo works well very balanced set up and in cooler climates of nor cal venues I run it might be good to have slightly narrower tires as I’m struggling to get heat in tires as it is. In warmer or two driver events it would benefit from 325/295 combo for sure. I don’t think I can squeeze any more wheel and tire under narrow body without some fender pulling .

Now having said this don’t think it’s a national level SSP car. It’s fast at regional /local level but well prepped gt3 with PDK May have bit of advantage over my manual blown carrera T. II was about a second off of well driven (national level driver) SS class 991.2 GT3 on Hoosiers. ...But can say it’s damn quick for a car that just has a couple bolt ons and a tune.
