Thanks for the comment Gary. I knew if I screwed up and you got by me you would be GONE! Like I said before the spec tire issue is in regards to the possible rule change of moving up a class if you breakout twice in a year. Otherwise its really fine with me the way it is. I think the GT field probably would grow larger if they raced more too. I'm certain any rule changes would go into effect at the next regular season. Lookin for a bigger motor! moving to gt?

It's nice to see things returning to normal around here with Andy busting T's chops. There's been way to much harmony between you 2 over the past few weeks. Andy's day of reckoning is drawing near and he's getting a bit nervous is all. Sooner or later, he'll have to run the #3 car and see if he measures up to 3-time lapping day DE'er turned racer, Paul Burch's shoes. As for me....., I'm fine. The car I'm driving hadn't been faster than a 1.27 in the last year the previous driver ran it. I'm close to 2 seconds quicker than that in the same car and haven't even opened the hood except for oil changes.... ;D T when was the last time phil ran that car? i raced him two seasons gbs#6 in red driving paul's bmw and the entire red group field ran 1:24's in the heat. the only reason i remember the car was because it was my first in car vid capture and he and scott battled in front.

TWS early 2009 was the last time he ran the car.....I know because I was there and DE'ed it the same weekend. Even this however was after I took custody of it because I had just repaired the oil pressure problem and towed it to Texas myself. Last time he ran it at CGB was the last PCA race, 11/2008 and it did manage a 1.26 during a battle with Lane (red paint is still on the fender... ;D) but Phil was blag flagged on that very same lap so officially, it didn't count. This same car has had a few iterations....and even the past 2.5 8V engines were stronger than this one (current engine has excessive ring end gap) but at two different times, it had a 3.0 liter 16V 968 engine. There was no GT3/3.0 class back then. The current era I am talking about was all with this current slightly weaker engine. T
