That's BS. She was trying to sell you a car.

It's going to be many months, maybe over a year, before you'll be able to get a Z06 for msrp. There's already a long waiting list at most dealerships....

$40k?? You don't buy low mileage creampuffs for track cars. He should be able to find a perfectly serviceable 993 for mid-twenties tops.

The word is they are using racing slicks, not street tires.

BTW, if your friend's tires are gaining 20 psi maybe he should consider nitrogen.

As for Euro cars not blowing tires left and right,...

I think someone got a nice deal. Contrary to what some people on this board think, not every 911 has to be a low-mileage concours car for people to have fun with them. If it passes smog it looks like...

How many heat cycles until slicks are no better than street tires? In my experience, forever, until all the rubber has worn off and they won't hold air.

My 1970 914-6 had a rev limiter. There was no mistaking it's action, as you were thrown against the seat belts as it you'd hit a telephone pole.

See if he has a copy of his last smog test and compare it to the California requirements. Are those 50-state cars? If not, it's some hassle bringing it into the state.

Wayne's car has had substantial mods done to it recently. It wouldn't surprise me to be faster than the OTC Evo's. And as you said, Wayne is fast on big Willow.

What does a GT3 run at Willow? Doug Hayashi says Wayne ran 1:31 in his modded Evo. The Eclipse in OTC 2003 ran 1:38's with a relatively mild engine, under 300 crank hp I think.

What about silk?

I thought I saw a stat somewhere that more people were injured by heat stroke at the track than fire. Get yourself a nice cool shirt to wear under that 3 layer suit.
