The Madness Continues!! can you say PET.......

Right now looks more likely keeping yellow after looking at all options out there. The quickest turn around is like a week plus to get them repainted, etc. so I'de prefer driving it then having sit there for so long.
But all know things with me change by the seconds

Love the changes! I vote just change the belts black and leave the calipers yellow. If you are far enough away from the car to see the calipers, not sure if you still pick up on the red stitching...

Well Sharkwerks does it again! Signed up for a track day on Friday - Thunderhill and they rushed to get the car done in time! Can you say service!!
First things first is the RSS bolt-in roll bar. Out come the seats...
In goes the roll bar, which fits nicely I might add
Then we start prepping the 6-point Schroth harnesses
Then the SharkWerks fire extinguisher bracket/kit:
First mounted to the seat:
Seat installed:
Both back in:
Fire extinguisher mounted up:
And finished....
We also decided to do a quick suspension upgrade (a really good idea for any MK1 or 2 GT3/RS actually) in the form of the RSS bumpsteer/toe-steer kit. On lowered Porsches with a factory toe steer link, the limited adjustment results in incorrect toe geometry. This part replaces the OEM part with a fully adjustable unit, allowing the toe to be adjusted to factory specifications.
The inner, neoprene bushing is also replaced with a steel monoball, which reduces dynamic changes in rear toe and further tightens up the car's handling.

What a great time had at the track! Felt great to get back to the track. Been a year since I've been and boy did I miss it!!
As it had been a while I wanted to take it easy and gradually get back into it.
My impressions on the track and compared to the GT3RS Mk1 are as follows. The car overall has been greatly improved in regards to the suspension, flywheel, grip, steering, downforce and comfort. The car to me is best described as Jekyll and Hyde. It can be a daily driver but take it to the track and it turn into a mean machine. I had John Hua and James Wong who have the Mk1 RS drive my car and they both came back amazed at the car. They all agreed that this car has serious downforce, great steering, the rear sticks much better, flywheel greatly improved, breaking perfect, and ample power.
I couldn't agree more and now looking for more track days in May
With that said, enjoy!
