warp10 I'm thinking about running in the WRL event at Road Atlanta in July. On a scale of 1 to 10 - with 10 being the best - what are the chances of surviving a stint in an endurance race in July at Atlanta?

Sebring

Second time at Sebring last weekend. First time car was acting up and never really got a lap. This year car ran strong. Still learning the track but managed a 2:23.

I'm heading to Barber for the first time on Feb 29 to prep for the WRL race the following weekend. I've watched tons of video and driven a simulator so I'm pretty familiar with the track. Any specific tips for first timers? What's you weight down to now? Great video - thanks for posting!

For me I was super surprised about how much speed you can carry in 1. And how much you have to use the weight of the car to get around. Barber is much more about stability and grip than power.

What size / offset are those Foreglines? They look like GSR1s?

Do you happen to know the weight of them? Curious to see how it compares to the popular Apex and Bimmerworld forged offerings.

For whatever reason Forgeline doesn't like to publish wheel weights?

I do not have weights.

They probably don't publish weights because they are all custom.
