I go out for the first take off with the new wing tomorrow. It will be interesting to see if I notice a difference in the feel of the car at speed...

Thinking about mirrors and perhaps a CF hood clear coated for the front to save weight...may tie in well with the wing weave...
ohhh yeah...the very last mod.... Motons....

Currently, no...in the future, maybe a day or two. When the day comes that I have the time and money to dedicate to the track, I will have a car specific for the purpose. The GT3 is my pampered road queen.
Wise move Chris, the GT3 is fun at the track, but for the same price you could get many much more track suited racecars. The Radical is something I hope to own for a couple of years, and then move towards vintage racing once I've learnt how to go quickly enough in something modern. The GT3 is one of the very best road cars to take on the track, but at 3,000lbs it is still a compromise.
I was hoping to get a wing like yours too, those peolpe at Cargraphic said they were sending me one when Larry got his, but still no wing, so I'm going to order it from Gert now as well.
