    Went out to QR today in the F430 whilst Scud pulled the GT3 out of the cobwebs for one last time.......... it was the Qld Porsche Club's final track day of the year.

    Rog has improved the times in the 430 over the 1st time out, down to 1.23.2 long track and has now broken 1 minute on the Sprint Circuit, from 1.01.9 down to 59.95.......

    Another good day out, was over 60 cars in attendance, so the track was a bit busy at times, but, there was only one mishap in the 2nd last run of the day, a coming together in the final switchback onto the main straight between a couple of older 911's......

    nice vids steve. that 430 looks bloody fast :D . i felt a bit sad on the drive home as the GT3 won't be out to play next year :( . cup car comes out to play on the 5th of december , i'm counting the sleeps :D . the 430 is a great car and i was happy doing a 1.23.2, thats half a second quicker than the CS on the long track and for my first time out in the car , that should improve over time

    giddy up

    Congrats on the laptime scud, and thanks for the vids osg.

    Have you ever taken the GT2 out on the track, just for comparison?

    only once this year and did a 1 22 flat. very hard car to drive fast as the power is all or nothing . 620 nm is a handful to control
