I hope this "retire from racing" idea does not last long. It's always great to hang out with you and your wife at track events.
Seller is the type of person you want to buy from. Keeps everything in immaculate condition mechanically and cosmetically. Can't get much better than Racers Edge for the engine rebuild and Behe for dyno tuning.
Yes we did have some good battles, it was always a pleasure racing with you. Who knows, maybe I will miss the competition and come back with a 911 to run in E again.
What would it take for 968 to be competitive with the 911s in E class? Seems like the 968 SP3s are competitive with the E class 911s, but the E class 968 wt for E class is too much. The 968 SP3 and 911 E class seem to run run similar lap times.
Dave: I suspect Karl Poeltl of Racers Edge could give you some good perspective on your question.
Would be interesting to have some one like Peter Krause analyze 911 & 968 data from the the top drivers in E and SP3 to provide some insight. Would be good to have additional info about each data set like tires/heat cycles, current engine power vs. max for fresh engine, shocks and alignment optimized, brake pads, etc.
Wondering if you could do something with 968 wheel / tire sizes comparable to what the 911 drivers did with the smaller overall diameter 15" set-up to improve acceleration.
Lastly, if I raced a 968, 944 or 924 I would want to run with the SP group as they often get their own run group and start vs. dealing with slow drivers in higher Hp cars (G,H,I,J).
And with this car you should definitely be near the top in either E or SP3.

Great seller, great respectful driver, great car! GLWS Dennis, I have really enjoyed some of our X-Class battles, especially at Summit in your old red car!
Hey Gary, great to hear from you, yes we did have some good races , it always seemed like we were close to each other on the track. Hope you are doing well.

All great here Dennis, if you ever want a place to use as a base across the pond consider this an open invitation!
