Eric gave you the exact site you need. Note that at the bottom of the screen you'll find a link to the 2004 results so you can see the times for all the tracks that haven't been run yet in 2005. You're looking for the race groups that include F class. Even if you don't see any 968's in the results, just look for the F class times. A well driven, well prepared 968 is capable of running at the front of F class at pretty much any track. Were you looking for a specific track?

Thanks!! I must have been blind!! I am a PCA member and just missed the link to the race results.



I was curious to see what the times at Hallett are compared to the lap times in my GP car. Will check the times at Heartland Park as well.

Looks like I am .5 to 1 second faster at Hallett and MAM. Should really be 2 to 2.5 seconds faster. I am about 1.5 seconds slower at Heartland.

I'm not too familiar with the F class guys who ran Hallet last year, but at Heartland Park last year Mike Courtney was the guy to beat. He and I run virtually identical times at Putnam Park, so you can use his times as a good proxy for 968 times at Heartland Park.

Mike was considerably faster than the others in F stock.

Not surprising. Mike is an excellent driver with a well prepared car. He is representative of the kinds of cars and drivers you find at some of the bigger PCA events like Mid Ohio, Sebring, etc.

You can also go to mylaps.com. This site is maintained by the transponder company that most racing in the states is managed by (AMB Transponder Corp).

This site shows everything (Race, Qualifying and Practice times). The great thing about this site is that the times are broken down by class so us lazy guys do not have to figure out if that faster guy in my class.

Instructions:

1) Type in "mylaps.com"

2) In the SEARCH box put in "PCA"

3) Next, click on "PCA Clubrace"

4) Now, just click on the race of your choice.



There's a print que so that you can print the times for future comparisons.



I'll be checking the times Monday for the Mid Ohio race this weekend.

Yes, post them. I believe the Carolina race is going to be another big 968 showing.

Yes, I expect Gary and I will both be at Carolina in November. I expect Rich Tillotson and Lou Lipari will be there as well. Watkins Glen should be another well attended race for 968's. WG is a track you should think about adding to your 2006 schedule. Its an excellent track, probably my favorite, and like Sebring always has a huge turnout.

Jim:





Don't forget Barber Motorsports Park in BHM is coming back next year. The facilities are awesome and the tract is "technical". Suspension setup is critical for a fast lap. I am looking at the Glen for next year also. I like racing with the 20+ fields.





QUESTION: Is the stock 968 Oil Pan and Baffles sufficient to handle G loads we are putting on these in club racing?



Do you recommend another brand Oil pan / Baffle system?



Thanks, Charles <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/blink.gif" class="smilie" alt="" />

To date I've been doing fine with the stock setup. I just make sure to run the oil slightly over full.

Charles, I think u should try running your car with only 3 qts. of oil, it would be lighter and therefore quicker and then maybe I will be able to catch you after your engine WARMS up.

Hey Charles, hope all is well, Not sure when I am going to run 968, I just finished building my 911RS replica for HSR racing, so that will be my next race.
