Well, I'm within a month of receiving my SPF Mk I from Olthoff Racing, after waiting almost a year for a transmission. Dennis & Co. have been great, and are as much hostage to the ZF shortage as anyone else. (Hopefully a reliable source will come from Quaife and their ZFQ, but that remains to be seen.)
My intention, like many on this board, is to track the car – in my case about 20% of its total miles, probably at various club events and racetracks (Sebring, Moroso, Homestead, to name a few). I'm curious: Does anyone have track experience with the SPF? What are their track characteristics? High speed oversteer/understeer? Stability at speed? Can they keep up with more modern machines like the Z06s, Porsche 996s, Cup Cars, and the like. Etc.
Obviously, I'm trying to predict how my car will perform (I've driven the car endless miles in my imagination and it always does great!). For background, it has the standard Avon tire setup (r:295/f:215); it has an all-aluminum 427W with TWM injection and 608 bhp (a tad much, I'm afraid); and, the front-end enjoys canard wings to increase downforce.
Any thoughts would be appreciated!
