I guess I just have HP envy! :oops: I wish I could find even 10 HP for my car, much less 30+, but thus far that is just a dream. To find HP in a 968 you have to tear the engine apart or boost it.

I guess I'll just have to follow Tim's advice and figure out how to nail that corner like Steve D. was teaching me. (Sorry corner workers in advance.)

Dave
I told you that car was fast!

Cold day and add about 6-8 HP!

Can't wait to see you experience the true meaning of power on oversteer, Not that I would know anything about that....

Dude,

With a couple of $ of stuff (limited slip, lower gears and some weight loss) you can run with the big dogs. (PS, Bob Brand will force you to eventually weigh the car - which I already suspect checks in at 2825#) and take the points - so you may as well. 8)

I have weights on this car and it is not even close to being 99 pound under curb weight. Those light weights only apply to Burl's helium filled RSA.

Jad,

You think your car gets punished, you should see how bad I get hit with mine in POC. :evil:
