Will be comparing this beast to the M3 soon
Bit the bullet and got a dedicated track car. The M3 was amazing, but it needs to keep its job as a family car with a warranty.

Amazing car
A friend on mine went from 997 GT3 to E92 M3 for the track and was a little let down by the stock M3. But I guess that isn't really a surprise, different animals. |

Let me get this straight... You are swapping out parts designed by some of the top engineers in the world because some guys sponsored by a company told you it's "better??" But when you ask the same guy about tracking, "oh no, I have a kid now" or "I just detailed my car." or "i just got new tires."

Nice!
How much of a PIA will it be to get the wheels off?

I'll tell you once I figure it out. Turns out to be not so bad, except you have to life weight off each corner while tightening to 440ft-lbs. Keeps the nuts well lubed...er, that came out wrong...It's a one person job with the right tools/technique.....er that came out wrong too.
