I would get with an instructor you know and trust and have them give you good advice on where you can get to with your current tires by slowly working up your speed. A GT3 is a beast of a car and can definitely bite at the limit but I think theres a lot more left before you get to that limit, more than you think...
Either way hats off to you for knowing what you want, to be safe and in control at all times while improving your lap times...

I totally agree with you. I said it before and I'll say it again, I have a healthy level of fear/respect for what the car can do. Even though my lap times are fast, there's a lot more potential. In the hands of the right driver, I'm sure 4-5 seconds can be shaved off my best times. I was considering getting a highly regarded instructor when there was an open test day around a PCA/POC weekend so that way I can get the most out of the day, including analyzing data. |
Absolutely hire a coach or just get a respected instructor to hop in with you. We all should do this once in a while. I had the benefit of having our best instructors with me in the beginning and now I hire a drivers coach which happens to be the co-owner of my track/race car.
