We will keep you posted with more efforts together with Cort. Please enjoy some extra pictures from the event and remember to mark the dates for next year's event that will be great with the staff of the GTGP.

Hey I'm famous, or is that infamous. Since Albert gave me the nickname I'll go with it for now. It was my pleasure to help with the weekend. It was great to work with Cort as we had very limited track time to make allot of changes to get the most out of the car and tire.
Cort's feedback got us to the top of the time charts after the first session. I took away allot from the weekend and after working with the Pirelli Trofeo there is allot left in the tire by shaving it to 3/32. What an incredible street tire at full depth. Pirelli has promised to take some of our feedback about the tire back and I am excited to see what comes to us for next year.
What was really impressive was burning off a set of the stock brake pads in 30 min. That’s moving! Luckily Challenge pads performed much better with much better pad feel according to Cort and hung in for the rest of the weekend. It will be interesting to see how the pedal feels on the street with the Challenge pads. Let me know.
We'll get them next year, perhaps a 458?

Well done to Cort... that thing looks bad ass! But we have to remember... Cort was of course the original SharkWerks 3.9 Test Pilot:P

Nice job but why the stock wheels? Wider wheels and tires would have def help with grip. Were you restricted by the available size of the tires supplied? Could the general camber, toe, etc. for the best set up be shared?
Thx.
Thx.
