2:11.6 lap time with theoretical best of 2:10.3 if I could get consistent in each sector. Not bad but I know my driving is leaving time on the table :crazy:

Had a ton of fun. The NT01 broke away predictably and zero tramlining with 2.5 deg front camber. Ordering camber plates that when coupled with the camber bolts should get me 3 - 3.5 degrees. Only downside is they are noisy so the drive to the track was accompanied with a hum the entire 5 hours. Easy fix though is to just turn the radio up!
Damn you are getting hella fast ill probably be there with NASA in october. Send me your data if you have it handy... and your best on thunderbolt :)

Do you think you need more camber?

Definitely need more camber front and rear based on tire wear. Next time I need to bring my tire pyrometer to find out just how much the temps are skewed across the tire. Should have the data this weekend for ya. Next stop is Lightning with HOD September 28.

Would love to go back but the time and $$$ to make that happen makes it not possible. I have to say running with Chin gets you tons of track time (about 2-2.5 hours per day after coming in early) plus passing anywhere on track with point by in the intermediate group. Pretty awesome passing in the Esses and under braking into the bus stop (chicane). Sometimes people didn’t lift enough though during passes and both cars track times became compromised.

I might do HOD if Watkins falls through.

Haven't driven much this year from moving but it got a wash last night. Oil change after football today.

Wow! I'd love to see a video to compare with my slow ass times....

Only lasted a few weeks... resonators are history!!!
I had the privilege of being in a 2017 with resonators, as well as a 2017 with the resonators deleted. My 2019 with the resonators seemed to be as loud as the '17 without the resonators.
It might just be my memory fooling me.
The '19 with the resonators deleted is quite loud (in a good way)

Replaced rear diff fluid/friction modifier in preparation for the next track day, HOD at NJMP Lightning.

Found a nail in my 2 track day old Nitto NT01 :explode: Looking at options to patch or replace.

Went on a road trip during the Labor Day weekend. Coming up on 3100 miles now. I’ve had the car for about 2 months.

What's the over under on number of dead bugs in the air filter box?

Looks like a great road to open it up a bit though.

Haha. It’s over any number you can think of.

Yes, I did open it up and believe it or not there were bits that were twisty too. Such a joy to drive this car. I saw another GT350 (LFG with black stripes) as well.

Awesome.
Do u have bucket seat or regular??. How was the comfort leavel?
I have the Recaro seats. I find them to be very comfortable. Note that I’m not a big guy. I’m 5’ 9” and 150lbs. I would even be okay with a tad heavier bolstering actually.

Road trip to Tahoe this weekend for the Duran Duran show. The car was fun up in the mountains (minus construction delays),and I was able to due a loop around the lake on Saturday which was scenic. On my way back today, I got caught in a pretty hard rain storm for an hour or so which made me nervous given the car's Cup 2 tires. I made it through fine, but I took it very easy and drove well below the speed limit.
