Yeah I liked the track a lot and will be back. Maybe at the Sept BWF day.

Is this the one you have? It looks like a clever way to harness in without major modifications.

Yes that is it…pretty easy instal and uses factory connections so when u are done just unhook and set in the back..also protects u in the case of air bags were to be deployed…the system will still recognize that you have a seatbelt on and won’t over deploy the air bag

I've found that its much easier to get the car slowed more and heal toe at a lower RPM. Jade Bufford (Pro Ford/Porsche Driver) suggested this in one of his tutorials years back and It works. More room for error and you using more of your consumables (brakes rotors to slow the car and also easier on engine trans/drivetrain. I'd also adjust your driving position to allow your knee to be positioned directly under steering column so toes on right foot are pointed at 10-11 o'clock prior to applying the brake. This will help with more consistent brake pressure and limit the amount of pivot needed to blip the throttle. A higher brake pedal helps greatly as well, my GT350R the Pedal while applying hard braking was lower than the gas pedal.... on the race car brake pedal is higher and stiffer when applied. which makes it easier.

If it's just to smoothy get the car shifted into the proper gear while under braking I'd install an auto blip or similar... I'm pretty good at it but, rev match yields faster more consistent laps. Even in Mustang Challenge they're utilizing an electronic rev match.

Great feedback. Thank you.
