Re: Close Call at South Bend
 

Post it here please, let's all see it :)

You know, one thing I keep judiciously avoiding is actually touching the curb on the inside of T10, and you guys are actually recommending that. I feel the car unsettles too much to be safe at that speed.

Re: Close Call at South Bend
 

More power is always ok in a 911... what the difference if you go off couple miles an hour faster... if you you don't have throttle input you don't have grip in a 911.. not enough throttle thats all.

I need to find Vid of me breaking a sway bar mounts entering south bend at 110 mph.. you hear it snap,, then all hell breaks loose but we handle it! lol

Re: Close Call at South Bend
 

I call BS ,, you dont need to touch curb,, no reason to un settle the car if you dont need to.,.. the theory is to let the car unwind and not to pinch it .. so they say let it hit the curbing so you wont pinch the car... enter a bit early and let it drift out!

Re: Close Call at South Bend
 

Oh Yeah... ALWAYS be ready to unwind the wheel!!! then you can meet Dell on back straight ,,, but you may have some grass on bumper but no Tire wall!!!!!

What blows me away every time I watch that video is the frickin power of your GT2 and Jim's C6R. I had to pull out every trick I knew to stick with y'all. If I was running 2:03's y'all had to be running 2:00 to 2:01 as you easily had 2-3 seconds on me from hogpen to the start/finish.

That was the most fun I have ever had on track. Damn I miss those days :(

Re: Close Call at South Bend
 

funny thing was i think i had 16 heat cycles on those Dunlops!! but i did have some pwer and motons in my favor! :)...

Re: Close Call at South Bend
 

i need to post some of the lil straight 6 M3! lol that car turned a 1:57! lmao

Re: Close Call at South Bend
 

The power was amazing! get to Oak Tree and then we'd hit the back and then WHOOOOOOOOOSH....bye-bye Matt! I was braking between the 1 and the arrow (about the 50 ft mark LOL!) just to gain every advantage I could. Talk about attachment check......trailbraking at T14 coming in at 155 down to 2nd gear.

Re: Close Call at South Bend
 

I'm going backwards. Now I'm tracking my street 996 Turbo 3-4 times a year. 2:08's feel like eternity. BUT I AM NOT DOING SUSPENSION, ETC! She is my weekend fun car.

Damn, getting late....I'm off to bed. The Grey Goose was flowing tonight and the morning is coming quick. See you in a few weeks for the FSR event at VIR?

Re: Close Call at South Bend
 

yes sir!!!! fun days!!!!!!
we had some fun!!!!

Re: Close Call at South Bend
 

I have no word man, just no words ::-/ I am not that comfortable running like that, especially on upper essess and T10, just amazing.

I am going to use this as the next video of the week, hope you don't mind.
