CTS-V, Z06 and 2012 GTR in the same week

Haven't really played around in a while but last week
was fun.

CTS-V (modded had a D3 sticker on it) - just walked him.... it wasn't funny
Z06 (stock) - he was behind me in the stoplight and decided to come around and
try to pass.... he didnt succeed and gave up
2012 GTR - several runs on the freeway. First few he lost 2-3 car lengths. Then
we did a controlled run and it was 93 degrees and my temps were
high.... so it was even until 130 and I was slightly edging after that.

I spoke to the GTR owner for a while and we will run again
in more favorable conditions and hopefully get a video!

Safe playing!!

I was at 235 roughly and I have the RPI oil cooler
as well. It was just boiling outside and car get much
slower with heat soak (and I have a VT1+DCI) without
the IC
