Default NASA Texas -- Hallett June 9-10

I'm in with my SM. Who else is going? Spec 986? SP996 (running GTS3?)? GTS3, GTS4???

Those of you who are close enough and have never raced Hallett should really check the place out. It's a great track.

Will be there with Jay in the GTS4 996 car and a guest driver for the GTS3 Boxster.
Can we start trash talking yet ? Any predicted lap times ?

I do have an SM he could drive also........ and I believe that he has a little seat time in those Pinatas.
I bet he would even be willing to start from the back if you'd llike. ; )

Bring it! He can start from wherever he qualifies. He'll never pass me. He's got no chance in that rust bucket of yours.

I ain't talking ****e yet, or at all this year.

But we did manage to lap under both the NASA and PCA records at Hastings this weekend (T/T laps, non race, but very encouraging).

At some point I'll have to open my eyes - I usually keep them shut most of the time.

When I win the lotto I'll be flying my little GTS4 996 car to all the events and talking trash with y'all. Actually if I win the lotto I'll be flying my new cups to the GA and ALMS races.Instead of McDreamy y'all could call me McLucky. OK fantasy off, back to weeding and watering......

The rust is just part of it's disguise to make you think it's slow.

It will be fun to see the Boxster on track again even if its leading the pack.

My Penske's are being rebuilt & should be back by the end of the month. It was tough being off pace at TWS hope this helps.

Sounds good VR ill give you a ring. Id love to spend a day with you at TWS preferably on a non race weekend maybe we can set up a PDS day.

BTW im not in the LS 944 anymore I bought an Ex Grand Am Vette it need some sorting previous owner didn't keep good records of what had been done. He had never touched the suspension settings or nitrogen pressures. I opted to rebuild them before I decide if I should to replace them with MCS.
