Would love to share PDR files if you're game. You're really quick through some of those complexes like 3-4-5.
Hi Alex, I had a passenger so I was only running 8/10's here is a video of me running in Super Solo this weekend with PBOC Winterfest. I was running with a friend in his GT3RS (He runs a DSC controller with after market sways) we are both running slicks (my car has the GM rough track, Willow Springs software installed), point by's are optional. My car has an APR wing and APR carnards so I give up a little top end. I can run consistent 2:20's and 2:18's when pressed. Every now and then click of a 2:16's when on the edge. I've run a 2:15.2 but I think it was a miracle run as I have not been able to duplicate.

Not at all. I didn't know Callaway had a package for my car when i bought it otherwise i would of had it done when new.

Awesome driving - I'll be at High Plains in the spring with my buddies in their GT4, GT3 and GT3 RS.

A 757 has just popped up on the horizon for me, might know more today. I'd be trading my 16 Z06 in on it, we'll see. Love the thread.

You guys are killing me softly! My TPW date is 2/12/18, but then the car will be shipped to Connecticut to have the Callaway put on. Nice pics by the way.

I've always wondered: How does the rain/wash water drain around the hood cutout and out of the engine compartment without getting the engine wet?

Very little comes in, and what little does simply runs off the carbon coil/valve covers. It's a non-issue.

I wondered that myself until I called Callaway direct and was told very little water gets in and the little that does, rolls off without standing/puddling.

if you get the master blaster air dryer you just blow off the engine. It is great for drying the car you never touch it and have almost no dripping from mirrors etc. later on. Ill never dry my car any other way.
