So Saturday I was at limerock with Patroon BMW, good group, diverse group of cars. I was running in the advanced group. It was perfect weather and not too many people. A Z06, a race prepared prelude and myself were tearing up the group. I ran a 1.03 in the afternoon, my best time to date. The Z06 and Prelude were maybe a second faster. It was great chasing them around.

So watkins, now that was a good time. 2 days, running the advanced group, PDA is now with Nasa so they had a race this weekend. On monday they had the race cars with the advanced group and instructors. They had open passing. NO POINT BYs, it was like racing. People taking corners, it was a little scary the first run but everyone got used to it and it worked out well. No incidents. The second day the racers got their own group and it was just us and the instructors, with only 20 cars on a 3.5 mile track it was wide open. I ran a 2.16 my second run in the morning. I was the fastest in the group without the race cars, it is amazing the grip you get in this car. I am still used to braking and taking turns at the speeds I used in the Audi, this car can take so much more. Anyway it was a great weekend. Hope everyone elses track day experience with the cayman is as good as mine.

no engine upgrades besides the desnork. I am running pilot cup, and I got the H&R lowering springs for the PASM from Farnbacher. I also got their harness bar. They also recommended the middle radiator like the 911 and the boxster S. This is only helpful on really hot days. All the plumbing is there so all you need are the parts. It looks better too. No weird black hole that goes nowhere. With the H&R springs they were able to get more camber. I am running negative 1.5 in the front and negative 2 in the back. When I get a trailer in a few weeks I think I will move to hoosiers and then I should be able to get another 2 seconds. Right now I am driving to and from the track on the Pcups. Ran 32 hot in the front and 34 in the rear.

Why is it that the best laps always seem to happen when the camera is not rolling? I had that 2:14 a WGI and that :59 at LRP...and dammit the tape ran out! )
