I'm in NYC last week with my wife scoring some important points to be able to continue my track addiction when I get a call from Gavin Richy if it is OK to borrow my car at Sebring for Chris harris to drive it and to compare it to a stock GT3RS MKI and a modified GT3RS. They will be there Fri - Sat - Sun.
They want to test shocks that Gavin sells and Chris Harris want to drive Sebring. I tell him I can't be there because I am not flying him till Saturday night. I suggest he call Izzone with his GT3RS, same car as mine, ex Mooty. As soon as I hang up, I start thinking if it is really impossible..I'm a huge fan of Chris Harris and I start downloading Youtubes of his Evo articles and mostly his GT3RS test and his run in it at the 24H of the NRing finishing 13th. overall beating many CUP cars. I send a few Text messages to Orbit and my brother, ask for some help to get my car and track wheels in the right place. I land at Palm Beach at 5:45, by 8PM, my car is loaded and sitting on the BBS with RA1's :-). I get up at 4 AM and I am in Sebring, parked in the pit by 7AM. It was very hot (94F) so laptimes were slow; 2:24's and 2:25's but I shook hands and said hello to Chris Harris. ![]() He mentioned that Sebring was an ideal place to test road cars Both Izzone and Mjenk12 hand Chris Harris the keys to their cars ![]() I jump in with ATLFahrer as passenger and follow Chris Harris in Mjenk12's car around for a few laps. He was very fast out of the pit and clocked a 2:24 even on his first clean lap!! I will post the video later here.
