Default So VIR Grand East Guys...

How about a report??? In particular, I'm interested in feedback in the advanced rungroup.

My buddy Jim was there with his JMac Racing his GT3 and I kind of use him as a yardstick for my own car's performance. How'd you all do, and how'd he measure up? Jim's car is the Black, white and Gold GT3 with black wheels...

Let's see some of that in car video guys... Post up!!!

Your Porsche buddy tech'd in front of me so we talked a bit in line.......nice fella and a beautiful car for sure. I ran in the intermediate group and had an absolute blast. Thanks again to Rick (my instructor).

Beautiful Porsche:



Cobra4B, his father and a few friends and I had a great time:

Awesome weekend! I have video to post, but have yet to pull it off the camera.

Mike - Jim and his car were smokin out there! We ran fairly even except for the straights - my measly stock LS1 just couldnt stay on his bumper down the back and front straights. All I can say is the T1 suspension setup by Phoenix + Dave Farmer's excellent corner weighting made my car run like a champ - I have never felt such a balanced car in my life.

Ryan your car was awesome... I had you on the straights w/ the ~100+ rwhp, but couldn't make the car stick in the turns when it got hot and greasy like you could.

Had a blast running with you... those last 2 sessions made my weekend.
