car looks a lot different now.

Btw not sure if you've been to any NASA events but if not I have a discount code you can use for the season opener in January.
PM me if you want it, it should be a substantial amount off the registration fee.

Lou,

Put myself and George Smith on your list for drivers for next year. Will send you contact info. You may already have info in your database.

Awesome time on 200 treadwear tires.

It was in GTO class. We need to get the fuel cell rules evened out. the BMW with the same power to weight went 10 laps longer. Hard to beat that on track when we had to stop 3-4 times more.

BUT hey, I am sure they would want the Corvettes back so maybe they will do the right thing.

Oh, why did I think GP3 edit: Doh, I probably saw TT3 and thought GP3. Doh!

If you're protesting, can you also tell them to stop knocking cars for having good brakes. Brakes are going to make a very nominal difference in lap times. The only thing upgrades are going to do is keep **** from overheating or wearing out. Pure safety. It's not even like tires where you say they're getting too hot and slow down a bit. When pads overheat you're done and thankful to not be a in a wall. Racing a places like COTA and especially ECR, this rule is flat out stupid. I get a knock for something like CCB, but stop discouraging us from running better safety stuff- and brakes are your number one safety device.

We're running 200 treadwear tires. Factory or 6 piston fancy pants system- they all have adequate braking power. FFS, even Lemons lets you upgrade your brakes without penalty.

Must give big props to the Nankang Tires. It is a new company formed by some Yokohama tire Engineers. Great tire.

I've heard of Nankang, but didn't know they made a competitive 200 treadwear...couldn't find anything on their website, do you have any details?
