Thanks for putting up some pics, Marc. Some great cars there. F430, GTR and tons of GT3's...looks like a great day! I'm glad the rain moved through quick enough for you guys to let the track dry out, too. I'd love to see some driving footage if you guys have any.

lol
No, this picture was of my wife with her silver helmet. Thanks for the photo. It was a very scary day folks. The track was very cold and damp/wet at many places. One of the 996 GT3 in my group on the first morning session bought it at turn 7. I have never seen corner worker waving three different flags - black, yellow and white with red cross all at once. Ambulance had to come out and luckily the driver was OK ... but not his GT3. I was super cautious and drove like a grandma from the get go but still spun out myself!!? It was that slippery. Luckily I did not hit anything except some worms on the grass lol
It was nice meeting all the 6speed members and Marc's GT3 sounds great with the sharkwerks muffler bypass
My steel Cup rotors work great. Will post video soon.

I got a real nice video with sound following Marc but I think Youtube is having a brain freeze - I could not load my video twice now

Plus they probably need their valves set too now? Italian trash

$$$ that is what is cost to track a F430
That's more like it... I can't imagine how long it would take for sport cups to warm up! What were the temps out there that day? Brrr!
