Had my going away lunch yesterday, and my coworkers secretly put this together for me. They know me too well...

 

Photos fitting of the breed. PCA DE weekend at Mid-Ohio.

BTW - daytime running lights come in very handy when reeling in the smaller Porsches on the track.

 

Kick *** pics! Looks fun as hell!

 

Looking good Chris. I know you're running the BBS 302S wheels but what tires are you using?

 

Bridgestone R11's. 275/40R18's all around. The tire holds up well, but needs heat to work. They were much happier at the end of the day yesterday vs. this morning. I will have to adjust my pressures accordingly. The ambient temps this morning were in the low-mid 60's.

The LS in front of me was running the Conti's at the same psi as me. Note how much more his tire is rolling over.

There are no suspensions mods at this time. I have MM camber plates ready to install, but I didn't want to make too drastic a change to the handling all at once.

 

The camber plates are as much about preserving your tires as it is increasing grip. See you in a day or two...

 

Surprisingly, the R11's held up very well. From the photos it appears the stiff sidewalls are doing their job well.

 

GHIG.

 

The more I see GHIG the more I like it. It looks much better in person than in most of the photos I've seen. Congratulations Fred!

 

Thanks Rick,
I agree it does look better in person.

 

Fred, you sold the white '12?

 

John,
swapped for the GHIG '13.

 

With a Raptor at Miller last week.

 

 

Very nice. Did you trailer your Boss out there?

 

Nope. Drove it all the way and back, around 3200 miles. The wife and I had a great time. I figure that the road trip was part of the fun. Stopped by and saw the Shelby American Collection on the way back.

It's a great road trip car. Installed the nav system and running the 3/4 inch plates. Great trip, great time. I had just finished cleaning off a ton of bug guts before this photo.

Lots of people ask about the 302R sticker. I think it looks good, but as many people that seem to notice it, I wonder if it's a bit loud.

 

I am thinking of making a road trip out of Track Attack too, really depends where I am living.

 

Sounds like a fun trip. If I recall correctly you also have a Raptor so I was curious how it worked towing your Boss if that was what you did. But you didn't.

 

Another painter's tape bra for the trip from TX to AL yesterday. Held up just fine, even in the bits of rain.

Oh and the Alpha Dog.... gotta have some liquid motivation while applying the tape!

 

A few from today, thanks to another thread.
