Default Anyone attend the NASA TTs last weekend?

I am curious about the 2 werkstatt SpecBoxsters that attended and if there were any other SpecBoxsters there? #186 and #187.

The times I saw online never got better than 1:28.3 and 1:29.1 and everyone else was about as fast as ever.

Drivers? or Cars? is what I am trying to figure out from anyone who was there.

Thanks!

I was there on Sunday spectating. The Boxsters sounded fantastic and looked very well prepared. I was very interested since they had GTS2 on the sides of their cars.
Since there were a lot of great times ( Wonger 120.8 and Patrick 944na 127.3 ) I would say that the track and overall conditions were fast thus
their times would be disappointing.

Yup, saw those times, thus trying to get info on the drivers. I met Kenny from Werkstatt on Fri when he was dropping off the cars and chatted for a bit.

It is unusual that the results haven't been posted yet

What was Wonger driving?

FWIW regarding the Boxsters, I've clocked Cindy in a bone stock Boxster S with RA1's at 1:29's. IMHO, a race prepped Boxster should be able to run under 1:26.

Looks cool, but for that $$ I would just build out my 996

I agree, Brian is pretty quick but I think he was driving his specrx7

Tony, that is more like it. On paper I think 25s and 24s, which would make them a good car for NASA GTS2 as well.
