Question: Do you know how well your car now competes (lap times) with high end factory cars such as Porsche 911 GT3, GTR's, Corvette ZR1, etc?

Thank you!

Currently I've seen 1:47's from the Latest gen SRT Vipers with seasoned drivers on the local track but they're on Toyo RRs. The GT3RS's are doing 1:46 on the sport cups. I'm at 1:50 on 200 TW tires.

Any reliability concerns or overheating issues while on-track with your boosted setup?

I used to overheat coolant and oil in 3 laps before the aero rework, zero issues afterwards. 4+ years on boost strong now!

I watched your latest video. You were flying compared to where you were a couple of years ago.

I try to stay out of second gear if possible but it's not terribly bad once the tires get some good heat into them. I usually use it for one corner only.

It's been a long journey since I first started! Definitely a big case of too much car not enough driver!
