Boost Creep: Quite a bit of flexibility in tires models...but very little quibling with wear items. The outside block on the OEM GY's is nearly molded at the limit so any miles means not acceptable. Timing tire replacement is the goal with bi-annual inspections. I'd only consider the OEM tires as a nice mix of life and stick for my skills.
Spa was a success! 10-hour round trip, 105 track miles, and a "best" of 4.8 mpg!
As typical now a days - quite rusty, but felt great by third session...until the moisture came.
Quite a few cars in the street category...mostly Porsches with wings it seems, few Ferrari 458's, 2x Corvettes, couple of BMW's, Audi's, 2x Huracan race cars, 2x AMG's and R8...with lots of good driving!
First session was wet with tires that were 'Cool' until the last lap of the 25 mins session. Second session, track was nearly dry and got much more comfortable, but hat to say it, lost quite a bit of confidence in the car from the last track visit...losing the main serpentine belt and taking out a coolant hose...along with the 2 weeks recovery. Really wanted to make it home that night for work the next! So short shifting and a slow warm up...still great fun. What a fun track!
Third session was a hoot with my quickest lap and little traffic...video is unusable...
Fun!:
Beautiful - even 6 piston rear brakes!:
Flashy:
Money!:
What is this?* Copied from 80's Corvette Challenge cars???:
Not the best lap, but I had a smile on my face! Would love to do it again...
5 hour drive home was a hoot...averaged over 100 mph on cruise (17 mpg)...4th gear pulls when passing the unlimited signage always puts a smile on my face! Really an amazing car...
