Since we rent the track ourselves (privately), we do NOT have to have a tech inspection. The safety crew does come and make sure the cars have roll bars (if a convertible), but otherwise we're good to go.

I am glad to see you are enjoying -- and using -- your CGT.

Bill,

I believe Kevin (4Kurves) was referring to his GT3 as having less torque than the CGT.

SOW is not the best track for the CGT -- it would shine more on the Big Track. Nevertheless, it looks like Paul had a blast.

Thats a pretty good video, you can really hear how good the CGT sounds at higher rpms when he is ending the straights.

Paul - I hope next time you will be able to be a bit more comfortable with shifting, the carrera gt can be a beast if its used right, if you would have used a little bit of second in some of those tighter turns it would have been over for the turbo. It looks like you were having fun though!
