Sebring

2009 One Lap times
Porsche 996 GT2 on Michelin PS2's street tires
3 lap standing start of 7:00 flat for a 2:20 lap avg. Timing Lights
Fastest lap by video was a 2:18.7 sec.

Going back with Chin on the June 13th with Hoosier slicks should be alittle faster.

Updated, let me know if there are any errors.

 

Heavy -

Sorry I forgot to list tires. I was running Pirelli scrubs from a local race team. They were actually too skinny and I am sure a fresh set of R6's would be faster.

 

Peter I race at Sebring all the time, would love to see and race with you!! we turn about the same times cant make that Chin event (almost always do but car alittle busted up) will be there end of month for the PCA to shake the car down then PBOC race there in July, what say you?

Peter good lines and mine pretty much other than 17.
cant believe those times on street tires!!!! you should be sub 2:15 with proper tires and alignment, for those that dont know that is Cup car fast!!!
Hope to race or do some track event together soon, man will that be fun!
Thank Matt again for selling his car to you!!

 

Tom,

I wish that was my times. That is Ian driving and he knows how to get a Porsche around the track. I expect I will be lucky to get much below a 2:30 on street tires.

Matts car is awesome, much easier to drive than my 996GT3.

1:33 at Streets on Willow. Looking to shave off 3 seconds.

 

Peter I thought that was you!! he was doing my lap times with Hoosiers on! you could really see the car sliding and him doing alot more correction than is usually needed, awesome driving skills. also with street tires you cant hold the inside race line in 17 because grip is not good enough. He really looked like he knew the track well

you and I may be somewhat similar then. I hope to meet up soon!!

 

New times from end of last year/beginning of this year:

Summit Point 1.21.003 997 GT3 (Hoosiers) (G2 Data Logger)
Watkins Glen 2:09.xxx 997 GT3 (Hoosiers) (G2 Data Logger)

 

Peter, that video was awesome, thanks for posting it! Wow, whoever this Ian guy is, he can really wheel the car around the track! Now go and invest in a $10 wind deflector so I can really listen to the motor next time out!!!

 

LOL my wind deflector is a piece of blue masking tape, much cheaper.

New time

PBIR/old Moroso

Updated, let me know if I missed anything.

 

2:05 this past weekend at VIR, Traqmate and on Hoosiers... Brother said he got me at a 2:04 but this was by hand, best was a 2:12 on the toyos with me sliding around every corner, swapped to hoosiers picked up 7 seconds.. I'll post video footage soon, even though my gopro camera is a POS with video quality/sound and framing :/

2:37 at Monticello full course, on Toyo R888's
