My 15 YO son took these. From last weekends Porsche club time trials at Cameron County airport.

My car from the good side



Although I managed to come in ahead of most of the other cars, here are couple of cars I didn't beat on day 1 ...

BMW AMG M3



Porsche 911 GT3



After only two practice sessions on day 2, this is how the day ended




I have a bunch more if anybody cares to see them.

Let's see some more of your car, not some raggedy old Porsche GT-3.

John,
What were your lap times compared to the other cars ??

Don't forget to post when you are going to run in the upcoming events
section. Funny who might show up to give you a hand or run their cars
with you.

Mike

Not too shabby. Here are the overall results for Saturday. 7th overall, second in class XC3. I should have bumped myself to XC4, I would have gotten a first!

I figure I was probably driving about 90% because I crashed last time I ran with them and had to go home early. My main goal was to drive the whole weekend this time. So I was saving it up for Sunday. I didn't exceed 4th gear on Saturdays track, and on Sundays track I was hitting 5th gear. I don't have a speedo but the M3 I was chasing said he was hitting 145 MPH on Sunday. I was exceeding 8K RPM in 4th, that calculates to 132 MPH, before I shifted to 5th near the last 1/3 of the long straight. The concrete joints on the runway make for some interesting vibrations and shaking of my old car at those speeds.
