Ended up 3rd. 1st was .3 ahead. Was also a 700hp vette. 2nd was .2 ahead in a LS swapped awd 911. So ya, not bad for a stock car with better shoes.

718 GT4’s are 130-140k used

First gen Gt4’s are $95-$120k used

trust me, I want a GT4 but not at those prices.

Ya they are a good cheap tire. Between me and the others that drove my car, probably had 20 laps and barely any wear on them.

No thats the GT3RS that always dominates (different class than me luckily). The LS swapped 911 is like a 2005 and black.

That GT3RS will never get destroyed like that. It just works how it is. By far my favorite car out there. Every time I get to go for a ride it in, I am blown away. The amount of traction is has powering out of a turn is amazing.

Yea, the GT3RS and GT2RS are no joke, absolute weapons. Almost a shame to restrain it to an autox course though...

Check out this video of GT2RS MR on the Nurburgring, there are moments in this video where I was floored by the amount of grip it had. I had to watch it a couple of times because I was having a hard time believing it was real.

I will have to take a look at the video when I get home. And dont worry, this GT3RS gets used, a lot. 90% of its miles are track miles and not just auto-x. Next time you watch Optimas Ultimate Street Car Challenge, you will see it on there. It truly is a track *****.

Thats the beauty of them though, they basically do everything well. One ring to rule them all if you will. Any of the GTx variants.

Seriously, I could get 4 Supras for the price of a GT3RS. That was a good video too! That guy was flying.
