After a long day, this made me laugh.

To the OP, I'm sorry about the engine. I agree with others that you should fix it, sell it as a stock car and find a 997.1 GT 3 or Turbo (if you can stand the AWD). These engines are made to withstand the rigors of tracking and mods.

If you get the motor your mechanic found you could do a custom Carrera GT Turbo S X51 RS badge.

Is X51 is stronger motor ? I'll be using the car at track again for sure. I have spoke to Vosion Motor sport in SoCal and he can have my race ready rebuild engine for about 18k everything included. Which is mean a lot of work to cranksharft(grind drill ETC), bettet rods , JE piston , head works , spring , retainet value , tuned and that could be 4.0 liter. But 4.0 liter is not making much hp as he said.

X51 will cost less but I dont know how reliable it will be fro track.

Input please.

OP it's not a surprise to be me you blew your motor. You were completely showboating in a beginner group. You were downshifting/bouncing rev limiter and intimidating other cars throughout the first session.

Just build the 4.0, lower compression, add a turbo from TPC for 500+ RWHP and over 400 RWTQ.

I guess you are another hater ?
Well I happen to be in that group becuase other group are full. And I don't think I intimidating anyone if you slow then point by. Down shifting bouncing rev limiter ? How do you know ? I doubt anyone stay at my tail at anytime.

Too bad they didnt move me up to other group. But I did request them already. Sorry if I push you on the track. But like I said if you slow then point by is the way to do. No one force anyone to do anything.

Word from other track members that ran in the same group as you says you drove terribly and sloppy around the track. And I also saw you driving erratically in the first session so this is in conclusion, driver error. Suggestion is sell the car as is and purchase driving school classes at the track.

Hahahaha sorry man. I'm FIA licensed. How can anyone see me driving terribly? I got stuck all the time and there is no one get to my tail. I can do sub2 around t-hill on my 350z . I think you guys should go get driving lesson not me. Well... Slow people always complain. I'm kinda get used to with people talk so much. If driving hard , braking late and get around track faster that the other consider driver terribly then I think you better stay with those prople in NCRC. They hella complain to me and my friend driving tailgate them. Dont even try to join limitless trackday because you bummer will get blue flag all day long.
God bless.

Anyway hahahah funny about driving lesson tho.

Lol push me on the track? you have got to be kidding me.. Sure you were passing everyone out there but it was clearly your car. As for the driver im not so sure.. I seen your lines and they were terrible.

btw open group had alot of spots that you could've gotten into.

I don't track my car but I have a question about the op's video. It appears as tough the engine goes and then he coasts in neutral for quite awhile. It seems to me that doing so could have resulted in a dangerous situation for other drivers. Also, how did the op know he wasn't spewing oil all over the track that would either cause an accident or at the least a shutting down for a clean up. I'm not trying to jump on the bandwagon but rather understand track ethics in a situation like this.

Sorry about you car and I hope sort it out and enjoy the car. Or sell it and get something that's designed to handle your style of driving.

Probably because they knew you were a bad driver from past attendances. As for your "FIA License" it's all bull**** because you have no proof of your driving skills. Your youtube account doesn't show any past track experiences so jokes on you. Can you upload a video of yourself yelling on the phone "I BLEW MY MOTTA" with your accent?
