Jared, love the wheels. I can't wait to see how fast you are around the track with them.

Thanks man. Since I'm on the development team, I'll be sure to hook you up with a set. We require standard size wheel sets in good working order as cores, because BBS actually stretches them. I'll send you a 'ahem' new address to send yours to and we'll get going. Cool? Cool.

OK guys, with the holidays, we haven't made much progress. Right now, my engine is in the back of my truck because I want a flat 6 specialty engine shop to look at it instead of just paying to have Porsche put another one in. It's not skimping on money, it's that these engines break too often and I don't want to deal with it again.

Soooo, the Michelin Cups sold. You'll see that change in the OP. Scan through it again and see if there's anything you might like to have. I need this stuff gone. K?

Thanks all of yuns.

Jared

Jared, do you thing the Supercharger had something to do with your engine breaking? Hope you get it all sorted out and back on the track soon.

Not at all. It was another issue, I'm quite sure, but I don't want to speculate. Tomorrow, I take it to an independent shop for teardown and analysis. But there are no 'supercharger fingerprints' at the crime scene.

Hey guys,

I've realized that I cannot run my GT3RS wing in the class I desire, so it is, alas, available. I've added a link in my OP, but here's a link too.

... and a pic...



Thanks!

Yessir. I'm so glad too. I FINALLY made a decision. This is MY CAR, and I'm not stopping with it.

I'll take you all through every step of the way too. I am not aware of anyone fully documenting the change from street car to race car, but I'm going to do it. Can't wait!

A regular GT3 molded one. I'll go full CF. Heck, I might have some of the stuff wrong, but I think I'm right on that.

If that's the case Jared, trade me my "taco" GT3 (aerokit) wing for your GMG wing. It has a carbon fiber blade

Sorry man. I'm going to have one made of 100% carbon. Going as far as the rulebook will allow me...

Thanks though!
