I'm glad to hear you're enjoying your car on the track.

I am hooked, its not fun to drive on the street anymore when you can be driving it at the limit. I will do as much as the budget allows, I am glad we have 4 seasons in the mid-west, gives me a chance to catch up on the finances.

I totally agree. On the street this car is such a waste. I'll be at the track this weekend enjoying the car to the fullest.

Every 5000 miles, just like my Master Porsche Technician suggests.

Are you doing VIR with TrackDaze?

As for Oil, I dont have a GT3 but I do track my TT, I did 3K oil change after break in, then did about 11K miles because there really wasnt much in the way of track time.

Then I did oil change again at 14.5K after about 5 track days. I'm just learning so I'm pretty sure 3-4 of my track days = 1 track day for someone in a higher group.

I'll probably do another oil change when I've done about 5-7 track days on this oil and probably anywhere from 3-6K miles. Had the car since late Feb and Im at 15.5K miles, with 12 track days, cant stop driving

I'll be at VIR with http://mazdadrivers.com over the weekend. I can't swing thursday/friday with trackdaze. I have some friends that are doing both events. That's 4 days in a row. Nuts.
