Default Norcal GT4 owners know how to do it

Forget the flippers
Forget the bubble wrappers
Forget cars and coffee
Forget the speculators

At Thunderhill this past Friday where GT4s were the prevailing car. That is how it's done, folks

I had 3 track days and about a month of crud on the GT4. I need to get back in the garage tomorrow for some more tire mark scrubbing. I did the 2 hr wash this morning.

Also yep NorCal rules. These dudes are fast too!!! I've got a ways to go to hang with these cats!

Hey guys, I've PM'd a few of you individually about next months private track rental, but figured I'd let you all know that I've booked Buttonwillow for the 22nd.

Capped at 40 cars. Feel free to either shoot me a PM, or post in the official thread. Should be up by tomorrow

Yes... I don't have a track where I live, but I took delivery April 20 and she's already got 2,700 miles on her. My job has me on a detail on the opposite coast for a few months with 1 week home each month. I miss my GT4 and want to drive her so badly it aches...
