If you can, get the GT3 RS .2, it's a great car far better than the non RS IMHO.
With a good setup, and removing the mufflers, it's Brilliant.
I think you're in Oakville, join us at TMP get a ride in my friends
RS.

I definitely want a .2, I am leaning towards the RS, but will have to see what is available when the time comes. I am sure SharkWerks can help me out with a regular GT3 though. I am in Oakville, so let me know when you guys are out there and I will try to make it out.

I will more than likely go since I am to be instructing. There is still some hope the part will arrive by then. Fingers crossed.

How about 12:30ish at the Timmies/Wendy's off the QEW on the way through Grimsby (Casablanca Rd)

Thats OK, if you guys want to leave earlier, its no problem at all.
I have Nexus, so hopefully the border crossing will be fast.

If I had Nexus my thinking might be a bit different on this.When I have crossed there on the weekends in the past later in the day I have always have had big waits to get through.My other part was to get to the Glen early so I could do my Pad & Tire change not being rushed but I could do the pad change at home on the Saturday and leave later as it is only a little over 4 hours to get there.

Leave early, don't wait for me. I'll see you guys there.

Is Fort Erie the best place to cross?

I was at Engineering Automotive today and they had a few GT3 RS cars there. There was a blue one that was pretty tricked out.
