I had some important work to do this weekend.

Greg calls Saturday night, and asks if we could maybe just show up at SP and see if RTR would let us run the car. Sounded like a plan to me, so all good works were cancelled and off we went at 6:45AM.

RTR were great - welcomed us with open arms, and even gave me a green student for good measure!

Driving Greg's car was a blast. It is extremely well balanced, capable, and bloody quick. Had the boost dialled back to 1 bar, and the turbo onset was far smoother than many street 930s I've driven. It literally sets down on the rear and checks out!

Passing almost any where was simply squirt on demand. The 4 speed box is nice - less rowing, and the ratios were good for SP. Should be the perfect appliance for VIR and Watkins Glen

It is quite physical, and demands very accurate placement. Its a workout to drive, but the payback is solid grinning!
