Great race!Well that was fun!! ended up second in both heats today but was lots of fun... Had a knock somewhere and I could feel the timing being retarded.... felt like I was down 50hp. Had to work hard to keep up the fastest GT4
will try to sort that out now.What times in the vid are your heats?
Chile really does not have a pro series any more. Ours and the gentlemen racer GT3 Cup series are the biggest. Chile is waay behind in racing. Argentina is race car mad and have a great track in almost every town. But we are very happy with this track. Fingers crossed that the greens don't kill it.Great race!
That's such a nice facility....is there a pro series that also uses the track or is it just for club races?

The video coverage is so good!! I don’t understand anything they’re saying, but I’m on the edge of my chair with an elevated heart rate - so much excitement by the announcers!at 3:33 is the first race5:32 is the second one.
They really do a good job over there.The video coverage is so good!! I don’t understand anything they’re saying, but I’m on the edge of my chair with an elevated heart rate - so much excitement by the announcers!
You know what I think already.It was oddly satisfying passing a GT4 when your down on power. But hope to have the timing issue sorted for next race so I can get me that fellow in that blue GT4 (normal manual version)... The GT4 Club Sport cars are in a totally different category... But then again if I spent "just" $25.000 on upgrades for my car maybe I could run with them (not going to happen). The Club Sports are over $250.000 down here...
If I were dreaming.... the 25.000 would not even need to be spent on the HP.
That brings to mind.... What would you spend it on. Lets make a list? What do you need to make a S197 faster then a GT4 CS...
Option 1
1) Carbon fiber doors hood and trunk $6000
2) Optic Armour front and rear $1200
3) Cortex SLA etc $7000
4) Cortex cambered rear axle $7000
5) Girodisc 2c front discs $1000
7) Strip interior and improve roll cage. $2000
8) Assorted things like brake pads $800
Option 2
1) Carbon fiber doors hood and trunk $6000
2) Optic Armour front and rear $1200
3) Penske shocks all the way around $7000
4) Cortex cambered rear axle $7000
5) Girodisc 2c front discs $1000
7) Strip interior and improve roll cage. $2000
8) Assorted things like brake pads $800
OR, Option 3

Are you running the widest tires allowed by your class rules?What do you need to make a S197 faster then a GT4 CS...
Pretty sure he's running 315 Hoosiers on 11" wide wheels.Are you running the widest tires allowed by your class rules?
I'd try a more common size if I were him, and starting from scratch.. 345s or something on the rear 315s on the front like the t1 CorvettesPretty sure he's running 315 Hoosiers on 11" wide wheels.
The next step up is 335's on 12's like I have and there's a whole bunch of BS needed to get that to fit.
¡Anda! Impresionante!at 3:33 is the first race5:32 is the second one.
