[[y/t link ] - Watching that, lots of errors, like fighting too much on 2 which affected that exit speed, taking too much speed into 5, missing the apex on 6 which screwed up my exit speed that cost me 5-10mph for 7+8. This is my home track, can only get better.

Haha, exactly!

@SVTDSM You need to update your NCM time again friend

Finally got back to NCM Motorsports park with the new GT4/FP350S Aero, and weight reduction for SCCA TT Nationals, and the car is an absolute beast! Unfortunately, my shifter linkage broke and took me out of the competition but I was able to run a 2:13.82 in practice on Friday which was 3rd fastest overall out of 194 cars attending the event. There was still lots left in her! Can't wait to get some much needed seat time with this new setup!

ALL LAP TIMES UPDATED!

^^^ that’s awesome. Do you mind sharing the P/N’s of the GT4/FP350S aero?

There aren't any part numbers for the GT4 stuff which is technically not available to the public (non GT4 owners). Try contacting one of the race teams that run the GT4 in the IMSA series.

The FP350S wing is APR's GT-250 wing with proprietary end plates from Ford Performance. Also unfortunately not available to the public. I found a guy with access to an fp350s who made a few sets from CAD.

That’s a bummer but makes sense. Thanks for the info

That’s a great time with MPSS’s! What camber settings are you using and what was the ambient temp?

I have to check my alignment paper again but I’m pretty sure I’m maxed out on camber with MM camber plates up front. And it was around 55 out.

Here are my camber and tie specs

 

[TDC]

Thanks. I had similar camber specs with heat cycling out PSC2’s but my ambient was high 80’s and humidity. I ran a 1:02 flat after my 3rd session learning the track and I thought that was pretty quick. 4th session on my times got worse as the front tires gave up grip as they heat cycled. By the second day the car pushed so bad and my times were 3 seconds off my previous day best. Worst wearing tire I’ve ever run but the first 7 sessions they were quick (4 at Pocono and 3 at Lime Rock)

I watched several videos of M2’s and C7 vettes and most weren’t near 1:00 flat so kudos to you with that great lap time with MPSS tires!

My first time at LRP I only did a 1:05.3 with an ambient temp of 90+ back in June. I did the 1:00.66 on my second time there so I was really happy with the improvement.

what other tracks have you been to in the North East?
