ejant...yeah...it got quite toasty that close...that sucker gets warm.
Thanks to everyone that helped me on the board, with a special thanks to Brad B...between the Autopia Guide and some specific advice (I appealed to his 911 side), I achieved results I wouldn't have been able to otherwise.
I'll post some pics, but I have to clean her up again first...I went out to Thunderhill Raceway and zoomed around the track. Getting there I hit some bugs that were roughly the size of Mothra.
It was soooo worth it though...hit about 118 on the front stretch, and about 100 on back stretch
<--- my face braking ...bone stock, even street tires. But the best fun was learning not to brake when the instructor said you didn't need to, but the corner was coming up oh so fast...what a car.
I have so much more respect for it now...it is so far above my driving abilities (so far
) and such an amazing piece of engineering
...if you have one or can get a ride in on on the track, go for it.
