Mates, I've been tracking cars now for 1 year and recently traded in my turbo cab for an 11 RS. I've had it since May and the car is an absolute dream. I was at sebring for the 1st time ever this past weekend and it was awesome. Here is the video of my best lap 2:29...I could have shaved at least 3 seconds if it were not for the slower S. Can wait to come back and shoot for under 2:25.

Al,

You're totally screwed. Driving an RS in anger around Sebring is not something you can just go and do once and then go home and mow the lawn and move on with your life. My condolences and a belated welcome to the disease for which there is no cure.

You're going to love driving the RS on track compared to the turbo. The linear, predictable power, the stiffer more direct suspension and rear wheel drive are what make driving a 911 at the limit so rewarding.

I've got quite a bit of time at Sebring and for your first time there your line looks good, I'll PM a few of my thoughts. What tires and brake pads are you using?

 

Thanks. Any suggestions you have I'm all ears. I have pagid yellows (from my turbo) and Hossiers DOT slicks. Thanks.

 

PM Sent. When is your next event? Do you normally run with Chin or PCA (or ...)?

 

I got your PM he info was awesome. Can't wait to try your suggestions. I run, chin, pca, pbos, hooked on driving anythng that get me on the track.

 

Congrats!!! anything in the 2:2x is very respectable.. Youll have no problem running 2:25 with more seat time at Sebring.. Thats my favorite track.. Good luck!!!

 

THanks. Its my fav track too now.

 

I'll be in road atlanta in november.

 

Looking forward to taking the RS there on the 20th. Done loads of bike track days but the first in a car.

 

PBOC is going to Daytona in October 21, 22 & 23? What year was your TT cab? Did you have any mods engine/susp done to it?? Nice driving

 

There are solo openings with chin in two weeks....Ill be there instructing. With car is out of the shop. You shoudl sign up

I can do a 2:24 on Toyo RA1 in the heat, Hooters are good for at least two seconds

The car can hold north of 120 in bishops.....if you have the nuts LOL

 

2:20 with hossiers shouldn't be a problem

 

You have time on 7, From Bishop's bend all the way to 16 and a few sec. on 17.

Nice video !

 

08. Bilstein coil overs, alignment, and corner balance. If wish I could have kept both. I loved dropping the top on the way home. Car handled insanely well. Loved the car. As a daily there is nothing better. I will get another one day for sure.

 

I wish. I may go aug 27 within hooked in driving or I think chin will be there October 8. If I go I'll be in touch. And yes I have the nuts I've notched that I'm slowish there. 115 plus is doable.
