We'll sell you one this weekend, we have Brad Roberts from BoxsterSpec.com flying in to help push the class and answer questions. Look us up in garage #2, we will have two cars there and they are both for sale.

Don and Ted will take good care of you. VIR is a great track. You should pick it up quickly. I will miss this event. See you at RRR or CMP.

Picking it up quickly..pfft. He took overall win in the first sprint race today. Don B and me caught up with him before the second sprint race. Great to meet him.

Had so much fun guy's, too bad I didn't get to meet more of you :/
First 2 day's were a nightmare on my Toyo R888's... Few weeks ago at Monticello I didn't realize how badly I wasted my rears.. So I had another set of rears used but a few heat cycles not much, but not matching to the front's.. That along with the heat, and high pressures made it for one SCARY ride, back end wouldn't stay put and I was correcting and dancing around with the car in every turn.. Yes it's fun, but in a GT2 when sometimes you are going a little too quick, and with that torque it get's scary LOL..
So today I finally slapped on some hoosier R6's, went down from a 2:12 to consistent 2:05's and clocked one 2:04, was running hard with craig and his GT3 cup trying to keep up but due to traffic and him being a maniac it didn't last too long lol... I'll get some footage up soon!

Fred, Moses and Auray were fastest in D...and faster than E, pulling the fastest E cars on the straights. I believe each got a first in the two sprints. Pretty sure Moses won the Enduro. Hunter Allen was up there in E. Pretty sure he took two firsts.
My suspension set-up was awesome. Car was planted and predictable. Rear end came out gently and stayed with me. Thanks for the advice. Now I just need to spend $12,000 on an engine from At Speed or Musante.

I turned a 2:05.9 in enduro qualifying in GTC2 but in the 2nd lap of the race my co-driver spun as a car in front of him was spinning and the windshield blew out so we were done.
