Default NASA gts 3

Sunday race. Aiptek cut out after 10 minutes. Qualified 5th ended up 4th. Car pushed horribly from the 3/4 point of the first race on Saturday through the rest of the weekend. Charlie at intersport has the car now and said the front tires are toast after 4 heat cycles
Must have a serious set up problem or the driver is over driving the car

Luckily the Aiptek battery cut out after the BMW loses it in 8

Triple motons, adjustable sways, adjustable toe links, what have I got myself into ?
A lot easier to get in an old 911 and just drive

I never thought of 8 as a particularly bad or dangerous turn, but now I know of 3 cars losing it in 8 in the last couple of years. Did he hit the wall or was he able to recover?

Nice driving bud. Yep looks like the BMW was driving his mirrors after you forced an inside peek in 6B. So your shift points are exactly what I remember from the 996. I'll give u a ring to chat.
