You're only ust over a second slower than Kyle. He's got MUCH better aero, and a fair bit more power too. Maybe it's time to throw your hat into the gridlife TA ring
To be fair, Lime Rock is my home track so I have hundreds of more laps than both Kyle and Allen. I'm under no illusion around their lap time spreads being larger if they had the same amount of practice at LRP.

Allen is a superhuman driver too. I tried to keep up with him at LRP when he was there right before Gridlife. I think this was his second session ever on the track. I gave up trying to follow him, and to be fair, I was on 275 V730's so I wasn't as fast as normal.

The resource there for you to see. Just at Lime rock the closest thing to the GTS is these 2 992.1's vs the slowest entry (sub60) for the A90 on lapmeta at that track is this guy on some wheels, tires, pads, spl arms, and coilovers. This is just 1 track.
Haha that was me way back when I had stock slow 2020 power.

Dude doesn't care about facts. Normal talker MO. Waste of time with these mouth breathers.

Am I imagining it or was he playing with you. Looks like he was being a little sloppy on purpose.

He was literally still learning the track and wasn't on his big power map. He went on to do a 53.88 that weekend at Gridlife. This was back when my PB was still in the 56's

Lime Rock is one of my favorite tracks on iracing. He got a better exit on T2 and you’re on power for a pretty long time after that.

How much curbing are you allowed to use?

Sorry, you are wrong. There are already holes on each side going into the cabin. Zero need to drill holes.

Happy to take photos if you keep doubling down on something you are incorrect about.

To be clear, I am not defending JB4's as I am pretty anti JB4. I am just clearing up incorrect information around routes from engine bay to the cabin.

The Porsche echo chamber is wild. Always think they are the fastest thing.

I can tell you that the leaderboards speak the actual truth.

Even with all the mods I have, it's still at least half the cost of an actual performance Porsche, but of course, modded car vs modded car comparisons are also kind of dumb.

The only Porsches that give me a hard time on track are the cup cars, as they should being 7-8x the price and on full race slicks.

One good thing about that is it pushes me to get PB's chasing them.

Yeah I’m such an echo chamber for porsche that I sold my 911 for a whole different brand… sorry truth hurts. Supra needs lots of mods to compete with 911. I have a track membership and track my cars every weekend. I know what the Supra runs relative to other cars. You need at least 600+ hp in the Supra to run the times of a GTS or gt3. Or you need slicks. But anyone can mod their car and if you care about lap times why not buy a real race car and compete in a real race instead of ruining a street car for social media bragging rights ?

Horseshit

Alll the Supra needs s a set of coilovers, RE71RS, brake fluids and a stock GTS with a equivalent driver will not be able to go faster. I see a lot of Porsche GTs got demolished by light moded Supras at the Sydney Motorsports Park which is also where the World Time Attack event is held annually

The thing that a Porsche has over the Supra is the $20k+ interior leather options, which is quite nice to look at and touch

Proving my point that the Porsche echo chamber is wild.

Just stop with the “just buy a race car” parrot BS. Literally the most stupid statement that for some reason people parrot through space and time.

I also literally posted photos to prove no drilling holes are needed and you still double down…

and another alternative facts mouth breather to put on ignore.

How much horsepower a car "needs" to beat an un-modded Porsche is irrelevant when said Porsche costs multiple times what the modded car cost to buy and build in its entirety.

If we're going to ignore costs and MSRP, there's now a Mustang that beats anything Porsche currently produces...

How do you make a hole when a hole is already there? You said "cut a hole". it's a rubber grommet.

So Lime rock isn't enough. Another example of your GTS vs a 380whp supra. https://lapmeta.com/en/track/variation/7 just do a simple ctrl+F and look for "gts" and another one for "supra". 2:11 for your gts while a stock power suora with brake pads doing 2:01. You absolutely do not need 600hp+ to eat that GTS.

So the difference between me and you is that I actually had a GTS and Supra and drove it on the same track multiple times for multiple years meanwhile you’re trying to research what other people got in their Supra and GTS. Pretty sure my own experience tells me what the cars run in terms of lap times. You realize you’re trying to tell someone who owned and tracked his own GTS, what the GTS runs right ? 🤣 I literally have YouTube videos posted for this

The point is that porsche owners can also mod their porsche… Supra is bang for buck that’s it.

If you wanna do weird flex comparisons:

I tracked my GT3 RS and my modified stock power supra. The supra's faster. If your basic 911 is faster on track, it's because you're bad at driving in the corners.

Please share your YT channel. I’m sure everyone would love to see how slow you are. So far, all you are is talk, and inaccurate, like having to drill holes in the firewall.
