I shoot RAW + Large JPEG. I can go back and work those somewhat to tone down the white (I should do that just for practice with PS).

I'd actually consider flying to the race if I got a chance to go over the wall. I'll look into the series and get back with you.

Thanks for the offer! Rennlist rocks!

However as I said before the pans are TOP notch and are a much tougher thing to get down than dealing with a white car in post processing.

I'm shooting most of the USERA Spec 9 series. If you are around for any of those, look me up. I might be able to get some credentials for you so you can get on the other side of the fence too. www.usenduro.com

No, I don't think that your RS wing is legal for D stock. I do not know of any factory option for a US 993 that had the RS wing. And 993 RS (and the RSCS) runs in C as a stock car.

Larry,
His wing is not a RS Club Sport wing but the RS stock wing probably less effective than the aero kit that was available. No 993 in the US had a 3.8RS wing either but they allow that in D (without the adjustable element). Actually there was a D car this weekend with a 3.8RS and the adjustable element but I don't guess any one caught that.

Sheesh Greg, I know you're fast and all but remember I am a turtle and slow. With my schedule etc. next 48 is realistic and of course would be best to have the first race at the track I know beforehand.

BTW, how do you guys figure out co-droving for enduro? Both pay 1/2 of all the cost or the co-drover (who doesn't own the car) pays little extra or?
I have someone who I might be co-droving and I'm also thinking I might need a co-drover?

TIA.

I think that is between you and your co drover. I have heard of guys paying to get a "pro" in the car and others that rent out 1/2 of the ride. Others that just let their friends drove for the cost of a few beers, etc.

I think you just work it out...I personally took the middle ground of Greg's suggestions above & hired a pro beer drinker and it worked for me.

Seriously, IMHO, I'm not going to ask a co-drive to share in the cost of the car running for the day...my thought is that they pay their fee so they can drive & be willing to pay for any damages...other than that, let's go have some fun & finish strong.

The other part of the ride is being willing to be a beer winch for the weekend and to schlep wheels and tires around. Plus lots of tips on how to spend more money on the car.

Greg, you mean that a few beers is all it takes to get you to co-drove my car? You work cheap!

OK, that's the plan, I'll hire a professional beer drinker so I'll have a full pro beer drinker team!
