Thank you @theplacetorace for a fantastic Trunk or Treat. The little ghouls and goblins were adorable. Have a fun and safe Halloween! 🎃

Turn the volume up🔊 First time driving in the rain for the 14 year old enjoying PRO86 power💪 Surprised to learn at lunch he did not know what a defroster does or how to use it 😂 Excited for the @raceronrails GR showcase on November 7th with @pnwgazooracing and @heeltoe_gama. This isn't quite PRO86 trim, but it highlights the versatility of the car with podiums this year in #icscc PRO86, #scca STL, and #worldracingleague GP2 by @raceronrails

Pacific Raceways' Trunk or Treat is THIS Saturday — come find the Racer on Rails tent for candy, then swing by our showroom — the Orange Building, Suite 114, on the backside of the building — open with the Manthey GT4 Clubsport inside.

Same problems. Different solutions.

One started as a street car. The other started as a factory race car. Same manufacturer — very different briefs.

The T3 is @mechanicaldirk ‘s 2010 Cayman Base: 2.9 litres, PDK, a road car we developed into a Touring 3 contender — chassis, brakes, cooling, drivetrain, data, safety and driver, all working together.

The MR is a 2020 GT4 Clubsport MR: built by Porsche Motorsport, developed by Manthey-Racing — bought as a wreck, returned to factory standard, end to end.

Different starting points. Same job: fast, lap after lap, without breaking.

What do you want YOUR car to do better? Tell us.

Call 206.475.1114, DM us, or email gofaster@raceronrails.com.

WANT TO DRIVE SOMETHING LIKE THIS?

What's your next driving goal?

It starts with the car you already have. Your street car, on track, for the first time.

It might start even earlier than that — simulator racing, practice, training.

Then track days — seat time, coaching, getting faster on purpose.

Then competition. And competition isn't one step — it's its own climb. You might start wheel-to-wheel in something forgiving, like an E30, step up to a Spec E46, and work your way up to something like the MR.

The car should match the driver you're becoming, not just the driver you are.

Wherever you are on that road, the next step starts with a plan. Define your mission with us — book a project consultation: call 206.475.1114, DM us, or email gofaster@raceronrails.com.

Final lap full of excitement @theridgemotorsportspark. Racing in the rain with @lawlence We both push the limits of grip trying to get most out of our cars. Luckily for me I had a few more driver aids that came handy 😉 Big thanks to @raceronrails crew for getting my car ready for the weekend. Hudge thanks to @p_for_plenty for being my crew chief and @kmwski for being my pit boss this weekend. #racing #ginetta #porsche #nasapnw by @raceronrails

We bought a wrecked GT4 race car.

It arrived in pieces — a ton of pieces — with parts missing. The front clip is raw, unpainted carbon. That is not a style choice. It is a receipt.

The steering wheel story alone is worth the read.

A rebuild is a theory until the car turns a lap in anger. This one did.

Full story — link in bio.

HEY YOU! YEAH, YOU, STOP STALLING!

Haunted Horsepower at the Ridge Motorsport Park is happening this weekend, and it's our final NASA Northwest event of 2026 in the Pacific Northwest!

There's still time to get signed up for HPDE, Time Trial, or Wheel-to-Wheel Racing. If you've been thinking about coming out, now's the time to make it happen.

Make sure you reserve your dinner before the weekend and join the Halloween fun, too! Bring your costume for Saturday evening's competition, bring some candy and help us celebrate in style.

One more weekend. One more run at the Ridge. by @raceronrails
