Have no idea where Louis's car sits in there. I know for GTS2 I can do a LOT to my car's suspension, gearing, and bodywork that would bump me into a PCA GT class.. and i'm seriously considering it as NASA at least gives you something to shoot for..

Stock engine, no rear limited slip, so alot of rear wheel spin in the corners.
Made it intresting to handle. 3020lb

I've had one for a few years and know most of the (many) things that will screw up so let me know if you need any help with it. You have a drain kit? You need one (for a couple reasons).. I'll have mine with me if you don't.

And Katz was faster still in the Friday race last year:

1 113 Steve Katz 26 2188:51:09.389 1:00.676 2 90.777

Don't know why MyLaps is claiming records for this year....????
