Viking - Did we meet at TWS when my tranny died on me? I know one of the guys from your shop came and took a look at it. Turned out to be both the shift fork and TO bearing, certainly a terminal trackside injury. Car is up and running again and faster than ever, turned a 2:26.2 with practice tires on the 3.1 in Cresson on Friday. Still can't catch Jay in the black 996 though, that car is quick! Its such a great chasis for this class and you guys did a fantastic job building it out.

It's my old PCA stock class 944 that I am converting into a GTS2 and then possibly GTS3 if it can get close to the times it (or I) need to be competitive.
I am targeting a real low weight so I don't have to go crazy with the hp, but we will see.
It won't really be set up to run in any other class although I guess it could pretty easily fall into a few. The target is really more specific to NASA GTS series.
It might even make a great enduro car, light weight, easy on gas tires, brakes, pretty fast.
I like the GTS rules because they are straight hp to weight ratio so I can do almost anything I want to the car.

I'll be there late Friday to put Dave's notes to the test for a couple hours, then I will run both ST races Saturday, but I won't be there Sunday.
I understand that they've completely repaved the portions of the track that were less than optimal. Should be great weather, and a good time.
