Coilovers, R-compounds, and negative camber will make a BIG differance...especially at LRP which is a momentum track. 1:02s is fast, i think a pro might be able to do it in a stock CS but it would be tough. for example, e46 M3 is not far off a CS in terms of laptimes, and the best i could do in stock M3 was 1:04s (i am far from a pro though...)

I rode shotgun with a guy who runs 1:47 in a base Carrera on PS2s. He was upgrading to a Cayman S and said he was sure he could go faster in the Cayman. Again...bone stock 18 inch PS2s. He is an AWESOME driver. Dances with the car.

Nice. Esp considering the race driver in MotorTrend did ~1:47.5 at Laguna full stock.

They repaved Laguna 2 months ago so these times may come down, if we can ever get back on the track

6-21 was group 52, and I was there for both days. my mistake I was there the week before.

also regarding LRP, I have done 1.03's with the car stock on pcups. That was a few months after I bought the car and began with the suspension upgrades. The cayman with headers and exhaust is capable of 1.01's or better at LRP. my friend in a bone stock 997s on RA1's runs 1.01's. If you look at the acceleration curve of the cayman with those mods it is pretty darn close to the 997s, and I can carry more speed through big bend and the downhill.

On a side note at the glen last week 2 friends one in e46 M3 and M coupe ran 2.12s at the glen with v710s and suspension mods. And the cayman's acceleration is better. I know the car and myself can get to those numbers. Ernie remember is running 2.11.

All of my times are taken with a traqmate as well as theirs.

check this out for how important handling is (vs straight line acceleration/braking alone):

0-100-0 times:

Skip Barber R/t 2000 car: 17.5 seconds
Cayman S stock : 16.5 seconds

Now look at the track records vs our times (yeah i know these times were set by people now likely in formula bmw etc but still...)

Track__________Skip Barber car______Cayman S

VIR____________2:08.55 ____________2:19.2
Laguna Seca____1:38.63_____________1:44.39
Thill____________2:00.85_____________2:03.4
WatkinsGlen______2:09.75____________2:15.6
LRP_____________56.54______________1:02.3

What is your story, Mooty? Mind reader?

Yep. Andrew is the guy.

Great guy. I learn something every time I get a chance to ride with him.

I use his Jedi Master tire pressure methods and have solved my uneven wear problems.
