If they put you in blue, hook up with me on pit row and follow me around for a few laps... I'll give you the "tour" for a few laps to get you up to speed.

If all goes according to plan I'll have larger brakes on all four corners, much more torque, a better tune, sticky tires, and a clutch that doesn't give up the ghost. I may even upgrade my seat to the OMP PISTA... The GT3 RSs are OK, but not perfect.

Martin, there will be a really good driver in blue that you should follow/try to keep up with. He'll be driving a silver BMW M3. Follow him and you'll do well out there. Also, u can ride with me in the early morning on the first day and I'll show you the line.

Mike, I watched ur video earlier. It doesn't look like you're rev matching (heel/toe) on your shifting. That technique should save on ur clutch a bit.

Mike and Forty thanks so much guys.. I seriously cannot wait, I am going to get so much out of this.. I would love to get a ride with some experienced guy's with this track and follow the line of others, i'm a fast learner and this isnt my first time, nowhere near it so i'll do fine

I want Tom to hop in with me too, or Matt/whoever!

I've had a LOT of problems with this car and getting the shifting correct. When the tranny comes out for a new clutch I hope to have the aftermarket shifter (Came with the car when I bought it) replaced with an OEM shifter. I've not been able to shift this car like previous cars since day one of owning it...

its just a matter of seat time sometimes... the old heel toe works best when truly threshold braking is going on...

i know that way is the best way, but i cant seem to get my foot to turn that way. so i have to use the new school method of using the side of my foot, instead of true heel & toe
