I need to be 200lbs lighter to be in GTB. This is probably a winter project as I need to lighten up body panels. get a cup wing, and cup car nose. But i do agree as it will transfer to NASA much better as a GTS3 car.

I think DR would be a force in E.

He'd be even more of a force in "D", where that car is currently set to run (embarrassing at least some of us in "E").

So my old baby has a new home. Congrats! Loved that car, thought at one point that I would just keep her forever. I hope she serves you well.

Are you planning to convert it to a race car? Let me know and I will share info.

Best,
-Paul

Honestly, I figured only the new owner cares about knowing how his car is setup.

Do ya really think I am gonna talk about his lightened and balanced crankshaft, decked heads, lightened and ported valvetrain, etc. Then there are the Swain coatings on the piston domes and nitride bearings on the crank races. Stuff like that.

I saw GTS3 thrown around a few times. My old car will need a serious de-tune from the 299 rwhp it showed at NASA. Just sayin. As for PCA stock class...maybe but beyond what was stated it needs a conversion of electronics (DME) to stay stock.

IMHO the car goes on a diet, gets new shocks and springs and slots into GTS4 in a serious arms race requiring it to move from 1:21s to 1:19s to win. In it's current form, weight and the stock GT3 shocks/springs are the things holding it back. Also at this point you need a guards lsd with race level ramping.
