Im just trying to get a gauge for future competition...


If so, are you guys going stock setup or going all out 4 way adj shocks? Something in between? Anyone using a full cage setup yet?

If there is anyone with a 997 gt3 who does CR, I would like to hear from you as well...


if a stock class gt2 was competing, how do you think the results would come out given fairly equal drivers on a fairly tight course?


Sorry for all the questions, but this is open field for me...

 

I'd say you can do the shocks and cage.

But, there's this dude who races a GT2, and it's hot as heck. BUT, he's slower than...........

 

There will be 2 or 4 GT3RS's at the Porche Club race at Phoenix International Raceway March 7-8-9.
We are all running stock suspentions, full cages and all the necessary hardware for racing.

 

Cool, Im thinking I may be the only one on the east coast...

I am planning on running 4 way adj race shocks, 18s with R6s ,full exhaust, seats, cage, harness' etc...


Goin' ALL out!

 

A well-driven 997 GT3 RS should beat a average-driven 996 GT2 on a short-to-intermediate track. Why race a 997 GT3 RS? Just buy a Cup Car or GTA car. You'll end up having no one to race with or will be grouped with GTC 3; GTC4 and GTA cars and have an inferior race car.

 

dhinkle, sorry to hear about your troubles at sebring

 

who said I was buying it? (Its part of a deal...)


The cup car is coming for the IMSA GT3 and GTC4, the RS is a marketing/promo thing...and winning EVERY race bc Im the only one is perfect for the RS...haha

 

Good for you!! It's always easier to podium w/0-3 in the run groups..I (old C stock) is getting deeper with talent and cars; I may need to run with you...

 

Thanks. I had gotten up to speed after two night practices and felt good about my opportunities in the race. Was gridded 3rd in class; 12th overall for the night race. Four of us missed the grid, not sure how, but we did. Started in the back and worked up through 10-15 cars in four laps. Was trying to get back to striking distance and hope for a caution (which was dropped when a 996 took it hard on the chin!) and have a shot to compete. 964 was somewhat agressive with their "inside line" at the hairpin (#4). Got on the outside and the 964 driver tracked out on me, forcing me off line. My car bottomed out and broke the header. Pretty much did me in unless we found the right replacement, which we didn't. Will be ready for Road Atlanta next month. Hope to see you there.

 

wow drew, very impressive line up you're aquiring

you know we're here to help you

 

Hinkle, Who else from this board was there?? If i knew you were i would have come say hi. Do you know Mike Grande, LNS Motorsports??

We'll be winning!

You should hang out w/ us after the races. Should be us, the guys we race with, Jenk12m and Heavychevy. Purrrrrrrdy' fun.

 

definitely sounds fun for sure...its gonna be a ***** learning that track, in a new car...haha...pray for dry and over 40 degrees...haha...wet normally isnt a bad thing, but...haha, I would def appreciate dry for this one~!

 

Last year it poured in the Enduro. Only like 15 cars ran the race out of probably 300 cars. Are you running the Cup or RS? You're gonna get so much freakin' attention in that RS. I remember our friend let us drive his RS down there last year. When we came back from lunch in that car, there were people standing in awe everywhere around that car. Now a racecar. You're gonna being popular!
