My SR8 at Sebring
My videographer wife punched up the video a bit.
Great video John! You are the only person I know that has the radio blaring in their race car. 😀
Nice car, nice driving, thanks for posting. Wish I had that kind of acceleration!
Haven't been to Sebring yet, really jelly. We're supposed to be seeing more snow tomorrow. 🙁
Thanks guys. @trakmnky Sorry to hear about your weather. This is the time of year when Florida weather really shines, so to speak. 🙂
I'm working on carrying more speed through the turns -- there's several seconds a lap still available. I did manage a massive 100mph spin at T1 that got everybody excited. I need to learn to make that turn at that speed without spinning. 🙁
The acceleration is insane! wow. The 911s and ZL1 look slow as you come up on them so fast. Most of the time you short shift it, geez.
@tmpoquette Yes, I surprise a lot of GT cars with that acceleration. I'm running in the video with my RPB engine right now which is the 2.8l with custom cams. The RPA engine is a bit slower, with maybe 30-40 hp difference.
Short shifting is my way of attempting to extend engine life, lol. I hope it works!
great video! Just got a SR3 ,hoping to bring it to Sebring soon. Been using iRacing to practice on a SR8, trying to get speeds up in the turns. And great background music!
Hi Peter, hoping to see you out there soon! I'll be out with Chin this weekend and again May 15-16.
@parsonsj Lemme see if I can get out to Sebring then! Itching to take her there. I'll be at Sebring Jun 3 with SCCA with my R8
