Sort of new to this part of RL.

Thought I would update my avatar.

Been driving an interseries, only seems appropriate

Just curious if there are any other interseries cars out there here on RL

I started driving a Cayman R 4 days ago.
So far I have installed. JRZ 3-way suspension, seats, IPD plenum and engine remap, cargraphic race exhaust.

Still need to install, gt3 control arms, toe links, lighter wheels, wing and hoosiers, agressive track alignment and get the driver to lose 15 lbs ..

Nice looking car you got.

Great looking car, stujelly. Congratulations

Do those cars run a different ABS and stability control than the street cars? I'd imagine you have to (or drop it entirely) to run at places like Daytona.

Love my CR, but the nannies still drive me crazy!

Your car sounds awesome and is probably faster than the cayman interseries cars. I would look at the pirelli pzero slick in lieu of the hoosier R6. Only maybe 100 buck more and you will get at least 5 more heat cycles out of them, or basicaly another day. The pzero will heat cycle out before you cord it, depending upon alignment.

Thank you so much. It is a blast to drive.

The builder of the car, Napelton Porsche, has a different program for abs and traction control. There is a toggle switch and I get race mode, which feels like nothing but ABS, and rain mode, which I have not had to try yet.

Great cars and I am excited to have it and learn more about it from everyone here.

Hope I can be of help as well.

Stujelly,

Thanks for the kind words. I am interested in whether your wing is fabricated specially for the interseries or is there a vendor out there for that particular wing?

Call napelton and ask for Joe. I am not sure if there is a vendor out there or if they fab themselves.

For DE, I was thinking of using the ITC uprights so I can see better out the back.
