Lanky Foushee, Colin Day and I took the ex-Group 44 TR8 to Savannah for
a shakedown prior to Daytona. Talk about fun.......and being humbled.
On my fith lap I did a leasurely 1:18. Put Brian Redman in
car.....1:22, 1:19, 1:15.8. New tires and maybe a 1:14.5 or so.
Compared to the Group 44 TR6, my best lap ever was a 1:21.0. The 8
weighs the same as the 6 with 175 more HP. We were also on race rubber
which at Savannah is worth 1.5 seconds. Daytona next with a slightly
longer gear. Bill Warner
