I rather have Ti-Jean be my rabbit than having him behind me too because I'll end up pushing it too hard.

looks like you tried to send up a dirt cloud every couple corners to throw him off the scent.

Nice footage and I saw the huge dust cloud as I drove by. I saw you getting towed back to the pits. Did your tire come off the rim?

It was fun to chase DD GT3 RD... when I saw him going off, I was like what the f*** just happened! It was pretty spectacular For a split moment I thought he was going to save it

I don't know the cause of the fire but I was behind him at some point and I could see flames coming out from underneath the car when he was getting off the throttle...

yeah, you were like the Engergizer rabbit. You just dusted off and kept goinng and going!!!!

I had a great view of the Honda spinning out in front of me on the first session. Everyone was driving so aggressive and on cold tires, you could see that one coming. I gave him a bit of room and he still pushed himself to spin on just the 2nd or 3rd lap of the day. Hopefully, his car wasn't too damaged by the fire.

DD GT3 RD - So you were faster in your BOSS than your E92?

Whose GT3 and what are the specs on it? Looks a bit sketchy despite the poor mounting of the camera.

Yes, I had sway bars, ford springs and and R-s3 tires on the
BOSS and ran 2:02:00 at Buttonwillow and 1:32:8 at Willow Springs (WSIR)
M3 w/ camber plates, front brake pads 2:04:4 at Buttonwillow and 1:34:5 WSIR


The GT3 is Tri-Jean's ...he commented above...not sure on his specs. Just met him that day, very nice man

GT3 is mine, it's a 996 GT3 relatively stock except for suspension (JRZ race single adjustable with 800/1000 springs). I was running on NT01 for the session on the video.

Sorry about the shaky camera... it annoys me as well... looking for a better mount.

What are you finding sketchy?
