We can setup a fund called The Duncan GT3!

I say if we each fork out $10K, we will be there in no time, assuming we can get 20 donors

Wow - Gord was right, 'calm hands' really is the fastest and smoothest way to drive fast!!!

Yep I am in favour of this programWork harder & smarter to afford one or have my friends pay for it!I think the latter is more likely

I'll bet the rear tires had twice the wear of the fronts.

What is so unusual about the rear tire wear?That is how my tires wear on track on my M

That looks about right

What amazes me is I still see people recommending R888's for track use for the M3. Does not appear to be a good tire choice for our cars.

I drove with two brand spankin new ones last Sunday






Very cool, total baller cars --- one guy even order NAV in his car.

That is why Toyo has reintroduced the RA1 because of the issues that the racers has with the 888's.They only work in a very small setup & performance envelope that our street cars do not have.I am looking forward to having new RA1's this year instead of the takeoffs that I ran for the last 2 events last year.

Chris Harris with Francois Delecour who is a former World Rally Champion.Pretty enertaining.
