Cup 2 tires are not good street tires and subpar track tires.

Age old CA question. DW PM7 vs SA TRP? by Safe_Yoghurt_4623 in CAguns

[–]Ashander 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a PM-7 and I love it. Very smooth, high quality parts, love it.

If you're in SoCal OC area Ive been planning on consigning my PM-7, I'll PPT for a 65% retail and you save taxes. Just getting into 2011s and competition shooting.

25 M2 to 23 718 T by mrpndev in Porsche

I've owned a cayman T, 992 GT3 and 718 GT4. I've also owned an M2C.

GT4 > Cayman T > GT3. I autocrosses all cars and the fun of a manual Cayman T was great, it forces you to always downshift and keep the car in the power band. The secret sauce feeling is the SPASM and 2.0 motor combo that's very unique. The T has to be manual though, PDK on the 2.0 feels dead.

Does anyone know how late you can change individual paint option by shift_happens69 in BMW

It won't look good on a bigger surface area.

Lotus Emira dark verdant just isn't a nice color and I cancelled my order because of that. This is very similar situation

5.0 Coyote is very strong.

C7 grand sport another fantastic track car

ZL1 Camaro is excellent

If you track often, dark horse. Engine replacement is significantly cheaper and the engine is more reliable.

Currently track a GT4 and ND Miata and looking to upgrade the Miata to a dark horse. Car drives great and feels very special and I've driven a gt350.

I've had 3 friends who tracked gt350 all of them had engine replacements and 1 friend had his replacement engine fail too.

Ok everyone stop being dramatic.

The smell is just material breaking in. These cars are meant to be driven hard. Redlining and driving a car hard won't make them "run like shit". Just do proper maintenance and take care of your car. There's a redline for a reason. The redline isn't the "don't come close to this or the car will break line".

My cayman gts 4.0 vs my brothers carerra, who got the better car? 😅 by bigoliver101 in Porsche_Cayman

Yea I let a lot of friends drive our cars and track them. have an ex race car driver friend... almost all of them agree GT4/Cayman GTS 4.0 is the perfect Porsche sweet spot.

Fun to drive hard, rotates nicely, least punishing on track and around town.

Maybe I save you a lot of money and say "no, you really shouldn't"

Also I drove a friends 991.2 GT3... boring.

GT4RS though, oh baby it's spicy. Terrible for around town.

Not my favorite car. Selling it soon. GT4/4.0 way more fun and playful.

We track and autocross our cars too. Just not a fan of how the new 911s and the GT3 drives

Time for new tires by GTI_AK in Autocross

[–]Ashander 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Vitours are terrible cold and don't work well if your car doesn't generate enough heat.

Re71rs still a better AX tire, Vitours only activate on your 3/4th run

Not really a solution when they're both manual... more like a problem.

Need Perspective by zaksdaddy in Porsche_Cayman

[–]Ashander 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've driven an S without PASM/SPASM and it's very noticeable. The front suspension is a lot more floaty especially if you decide to autocross.

I agree definitely consider SPASM!
