Now that I'm not running a service shop 7 days a week, I'm am starting to get to the track with my 968GT
I've only tested one day so far at NJ in 90 degrees and 90% humidity. ran great and cool .
My new adventure was Mid Ohio last weekend. Friday was rain-rain and more rain. This wouldn't be so bad if they hadn't put a sealer on all the corners. Every line into the corners looked like a shiny oil slick and felt the same. The only cars on track didn't run wet line-but avoid line. You virtually had to cross shiny patches and find wet but better surface.
I waited until Saturday to attemp track with Hoosiers. Morning temps were 58F. Hoosiers don't like that but as track surface temp increased and Sun came out, fun started happening. Every session got better and so did I. Driving in Instructor group always pits you with fast cars, racers and local track guru's. It takes awhile to not feel like a rookie. By Sunday I was the passer vs the passeeee. Sorry I didn't get any Video but had lots of drivers coming over to check out 968FH/GT
BTW- I love Mid Ohio. Most technical track I've ever been on. Also fun fun fun
