August 26, 2008 Pacific raceways track day footage. Me in my Saab 92x chasing a race prepped Porsche 911 GT2. He obviously has me on acceleration but with lapped traffic and late, hard braking I am able to keep up for almost 20 minutes.

  • The intake is stock with the exception of a K&N Air filter and I removed the snorkel in the front passenger fender. I also have Recaro race seats with 6 point driver and 5 point passenger harnesses to keep my butt from sliding around. :) And of course the gauges but they have no affect on performance. I use this car as my daily driver. I love being able to carry the track tires in the hatch and just running them at the track. My first time out I toasted the stock 16s :)

  • Alot of Cobb. Cobb AccessPort, uppipe, downpipe, TBE, front and rear swaybars, SS brakelines, slotted rear disk with cobb pads, front Stoptech BBK with Pagid RS 4-4 Orange pads. On the track I run the Advan A048s on SSR Type C RS 17" rims. This rear I added RCE Brake Cooling Kit and removed the dust guard to try and reduce the fade I was getting in this video. I also installed the WL-KCA359 Whiteline Anti-Lift Kit this year but have not been back to the track to test it yet.

  • What mods? On my SAAB 92-x, I have a Prodrive cold air intake, COBB ECU mod, Porterfield R4-S racing pads all around, and removed the seat back and interior. Fun car ;)

  • Yes passing was limited to designated zones. There are four passing zones that start with a green flag and end at the red flag.

    The Saab drivetrain is stock other than modified exhaust and ECU. No nitro or turbo upgrade.

  • Wasn't this a practice seasion? with blocking and limited passing zones? and didn't the Saab have nitros an a 502 Chev v8?

  • These are not slicks but they are not street tires either. They are classified as a competition tire. They are Yokohama Advan A048 from TireRack.

    BTW, George ( the Porsche driver) is a great guy. We talked several times between sessions. In all fairness he was new to the car at the time and still learning its full potential.

  • Nicely done, it is hard to drive smoothly at those speeds. Are you on slicks?

    Great video. I wonder what the GT2 driver was thinking seeing you in the rear view mirror all the time ;)
