Obviously a little high for GTS3 but what fun at a track day!
At 2890 lbs, the car would be great for GTS4!

I was asking where that dyno was, because if it's at Behe, then you must have kicked me off the dyno!

You must be SO psyched, that car is just awesome!
I share your anticipation....

What would it take to run GTS4 at 2700lbs on R6's?

I'm thinking that the new car is the one to bring down to Race Track Combat.
No question about it.

Minimum weight/hp for GTS4 is 8.5. So, at 2700 lbs (with driver and gear, coming off track), hp could not be greater than 317.6. This assumes that peak HP is greater than peak TQ.

Thanks Tim, that would be one fast car

I would like to get a lot of seat time in the car before racing it, but it is a thought

That's just about the same for me. I have had to set my car up to run slightly less than 300 rwhp to be able to run GTS4. It's either that or add a bunch of weight and I can't bare the thought!

Gary, start eating dounuts...... Runs the car in GTS4. I hope to have the upgraded engine for Hyperfest and participate. Otherwise it will be GTS3 for that event.

Gary,
I saw the car yesterday while Sloane and his guys were putting the finishing touches on it. IT LOOKS GREAT!! They really did do a great job fabing everything up. All the systems are installed nicley and the fit and finish is top notch.

Good luch at The Glen this weekend.

Gary, look over the NASA guidelines when you are installing. They have some idiotic suggestion to use one bolt for every 15 lbs of ballast (IIRC). I don't know if the scruts can enforce it or not as it is written as a suggestion.

Gary,
If you do need ballast give me a shout. I have some very nice high density lead plates that I bought a couple of years ago I could part with.
