Thanks Arnie,
Those numbers ar in line with what I have read elsewhere. I have 22s front and 28s rear, and was planning on going to 23s and 30s. Since I plan on racing in stock class (G), I'm not going to spend the premium on hollow. Pretty easy to get to 2550# without hollow bars.
My corner balance is also cross-checked. I think that is fairly normal. Do you happen to know what sway bars you are using?
Btw, did you check out the blue Sunoco 911? I loved the look and sound of his SuperTrapps, and he was fast, at least from my perspective. BKS and he passed me on the bridge straight and he seemed to pace Brian fairly closely for the next lap.

Yeah, that dude was cookin. I had a hard time pulling away. When I passed him, I was watching his car, and it was hooked up in the corners.
I wonder what it weighed, I never got a chance to look at the car closely.

That was a really nice car, and driven very well. Dave Brown talked to the driver and from what I understand it's a real RS with a slight modification, a well set-up 3.6L.
Don, I don't remember the make of the bars they've been in the car for a long time

Just wanted to chime in and give a bump to a great DE. Sure, it was hot, but I enjoyed it. I had great traction throughout the day even with the extreme temps on track. Thanks for a great event.
VB997, which GT3 were you, the white or the yellow? I was in the black one.

The sound is intoxicating. It's the one thing I can count on to keep my adrenaline pumping while I am concentrating on flyin' around the circuit.

The white one did give me a little bit of a jolt during a pass, but he came into the paddock and "enlightened" me.
