    GT MK IV posts the first sub-2:00 GT car lap of COTA

    I believe it's bored & stroked, and yes, the power output is stout. That MPH at the end of the back straight is nuts, especially for a heavy aero car.

    In the MKIV it's an EcoBoost 3.8. I hope to be able to share build pics presently...

    I didn't get any for my car - I prefer the standard look. This was just the wheel set which happened to have fresh tires when I did the first 1:59 lap.

    Pfft. I've run 1:22s, before the repave, in the 488 Modificata. High teens or bust!

    Larry was pretty thrilled, yes. After Daytona we had a gentleman's bet that I would get into the 59s, and it's a bet we're both very happy I won!

    I have it on good authority that the performance will not disappoint.

    I've got GTD chassis #42 coming. It's gonna be nutty.

    I'm told 2750 lbs. And 2500 lbs of downforce. 2.5G of braking and cornering. It's mental.

    That's just driving fast. The car let me know what's going on with plenty of warning.

    I just got back from the Multimatic MK IV delivery / track day at COTA and I'm still grinning from ear to ear. Driving the MK IV for my first time today, I set - shattered, really - the COTA GT car lap record by 1.5 2 seconds! The MK IV is superlative - friendly, communicative, and absolutely...

    Laguna Seca Sued by Rich Neighbors for Being a Race Track

    It's not the first time, and likely won't be the last. They will lose, again.

    I had high hopes. Texas has exceeded them.

    We got that call from Ferrari a few weeks ago, shortly before the unveiling. Four enthusiastic thumbs up was the instant response from me and Christine :) ETA late 2025

    Google has a large Austin office. But importantly, my team is distributed around the world, and the Central time zone is two hours closer to Europe than is CA so it works very well for me.

    Indeed, we moved to Austin back in Feb after a decade of visiting the area and it's ... honestly, much better even than I had expected. Proximity to COTA is just one of many upsides here - the city is friendly and walkable, the food is off the charts (Texas BBQ!!? it's like crack) and the people...
