Awesome job Sharif! The video is sweet.

Did you mistakenly get invited to a Porsche race or something? lol. You burned them all though, gj!

travisjb · 01-27-2010, 11:17 AM

Porsche Club of America (PCA) events are fairly open... once you're in, you're in even if you switch to another marquee. and if you don't have a porsche, just need to be invited by a member... it's a great group in AZ, focus is on having fun and learning to drive, less emphasis on running at 99% and getting your best time... a great group to learn with for sure

Absolutely outstanding. Great vid to watch!

Sharif, do you guys ever get over here to the west coast?

I need Decker to send me the rear view mirror you guys are using... bar mount, right?

Love the Carbonetic too - would recommend it to anyone

Which pads were you using? did i miss that in your post??

Possible to get some detailed shots of the engine bay?

We are running Carbotech XP12 brake pads

The engine bay looks stock

We don't make it out there very often. We were out there last year for the Super Lap Battle and Redline Time Attack at Fontana.

Congratulatins! It's definately in order. The car looks absolutely beastly and I love the attention to detail.

What size tires are on the re30?

Toyo R888's 295/30/19 front and 305/30/19 rear. We are waiting on our 18 inch wheels to arrive a little later in the season. Then we will run 295/315 combo. You can tell in the vid, it's still a little loose.

theDreamer · 01-31-2010, 08:26 PM

Sharif, did they go ahead and make those 18x12 wheels for you?

Going to be 18X11.5 More details will be posted in a brand new thread. Just waiting on a few things.

travisjb · 01-31-2010, 08:38 PM

Hey Sharif, did you guys hook up a traqmate to this car? Wondering if you figured out how to connect the RPM wire... it wants an analog signal and I'm at a loss for where to find one of those!

We threw the TM in about 10 mins before we left for the track, so we didn't pull the tach signal yet. It's pretty easy though. Simply tap the #1 Ignition wire from the ECU. I am at home, but I am sure someone has a PIN out they can post up, as I don't remember the pin location off the top of my head.
