I would make it 22 but it's been frustrating the last 2yrs this event has been rained out. I hope it's not 3 in a row, but I'm helping Seth Thomas with an event that same weekend

Last year I missed it, but I don't remember it rainy the previous year, we'll see I guess. I am more worried about the NASA event mid-February at VIR, but I've got to try the car out and do a shake down, rain, snow or shine

Last year it rained on/off Friday, was decent Saturday and poured Sunday morning. Most people split but the sun came out after noon and was beautiful.

Looking forward to a "shake down" of my own!

Hey, you cannot just come in and say "shake down of my own" without any pictures of the new baby

Here's the only picture I've got, taken with my cell phone. '08 GT2 in GT Silver. I've driven a Cayman for the last couple of years.

I haven't been an "active" Rennlister until now....

Come on Ry! How am I gonna match your SP 1:18's with my limited talent?

It's a beast and truly more car than I was looking for but (see below)

edit... Mike's already re-ramped the diff, minor revalve of the shocks and new springs.

The price was too good to pass up. I was concerned that it had been beat on but it doesn't look to have any track time on it. Some normal over revs but there's not a speck of rubber anywhere on/in it. Well, not yet...

Well, take a close look at the pic, it is in TPC's parking lot, so you really need to squeeze few more secs out of that RS, or Brian will be on your tail flashing his lights
