Best place to sort a car out is on the track. My 40 replica doubles as a road and track car. For track events and practice I drive it there, swap wheels to dot rated slicks purely as a costsaving measure. I prefer the feel and predictability of well worn Pirellis and laptimes are close to the slicks. No other changes are made to the car and I even run pumpfuel on track although nothing beats Avgas. I recon with a 40 you can have a piece of both pies, shouldn't a GT be as such?
