Leh,
He may be at RA on 12/1, I'll tell him you said hello. I hope you had a good Thanksgiving, unfortunately my 2 year old got a staph infection and we ended up spending Friday through today in the hospital in Greensboro, NC...we were visiting my wife's family...he's all good now!

Nice job. I was out there that weekend but timed you in the 1:38-40 range. Either way you were moving quick and took good lines. I had the silver evo by the orton performance trailor. A lot of the porsche guys are out there to have some fun and rarely push their cars to the limit.

Yeah, I guess Hank Cohn's traqmate was giving him bad data all weekend. Hank was giving his car everything he could...ask him if you don't believe me, he's over on Rennlist.

its the truth, i went to my first track day and as a noob, i was lapping c6 z06's, some race prepped caged 944's on hoosier race slicks, and some full track cars. that was at my first track day, stock turbo, a048's, kw v3's...
next year it will be interesting to see how i do with about -200 lbs, motons/ohlins, 285/30/18 r comps, quaife lsd, etc etc

Sorry, the way I read your post was similar to others who basically said I was full of **** concerning how quick the EVO is around RA. Group 5 is the instructors group and nobody is lollygagging around the track. The times you are quoting were with traffic...and passes only happen with point bys on the straights. The car will be at RA on 12/1 with the new HTA35R, AEM EMS, Exedy HD Twin, AMS surge tank fuel system, E85, and some additional tuning...looking for sub 1:33.

LOL, interesting thread. Cleve did own the group in Oct, I was there watching myself. Seemed like Hank and Cleve were pretty even at first and then Cleve started pulling away. There was a cup car there that should have spanked them both, but you cant buy driving skill.
Other than those two, the group was fairly modest (slow) some being the cars but most being the drivers. 1:35 is about as fast as you'll see at a PCA DE, from a cup car or 997 GT3. I know a guy that has a stock 996 GT3 that can run mid 1:30's too, he races pro in germany. Maybe we can all get out there together one of these days, we wont get many clean laps because of passing people, but it would be fun.
