Took a ride in the gt3

Well i have the gt3 bug after being at Watkins Glen last week. It was a great weekend with five of us going up together. We shipped the cars by transport. While there I couldn't help but think about the gt3. So this morning I was fortunate enought to go in one on the westside highway. The car felt just as fast as the turbo in first and second gear-This is one strong engine with the sound to match. On Wed and Thursday I was lucky enough to be invited to summit Point for two days of testing with 2 cup cars, a gt3, my turbo, and possibly a ferrari 360. I will have pictures later this week. I also have scheduled to have Spencer Pumpelly (gt3r driver, skip barber instructor, daytona driver) come for two days of instuction. Should be fun!!
