Adrian,

+1 time to put up or zip it. The only problem is how do you define stock when it is very easy to +++ hp without any visible indications.

Some have mentioned a 997 Turbo...problem is a 997 Turbo being all wheel drive is slower at the track than a GT3 or GT3RS.

Mike,

Can you get around Sebring in the low 2:20's on Continental street tires. The OLOA GT-r did. His 1st time at the track. Don't make the mistake of thinking a Gt-r is a joke. A well drive GT-r is fast. No I wouldn't own 1 but I do respect them.

I have a 996TT and I would like to do the road course event. Can I participate in that event by itself ? I'm not interested in the drag racing.

I think that a 996tt would be a great competitor. Why not the 1/4mile event? You have a more than capable car!

Alexander,

If I have to do it, i'll do it. But considering how easy the GTR's can be modify to run low 11's and I only have a flash with a few weight reduction. I'm not sure I can compete in that category. Unless I'm put against a 480BHP GTR
