[Plimmer]

Road America. full course. '16 GTPP. GT350 manifold. FR8 suspension package. Hoosier R7 295/40-18 square. 2:34.07 seconds.

Great video!! I like the passing rules in that group. That Foxbody had some legs for the straights but slow to stop for corners.

Here's a lap from RPM that was a 1:47. Clearly had more in me, but the tires had gone off by this point in the session, really didn't want to turn in at certain points on the track.

Here's a video from that track day at Hallett. Race Chrono tells me I should have been able to log a 1:28.xx if I had strung together all my best sessions. This was a mid-November HST-only track day, and it was cold! First few sessions were especially slow due to the cold. This was last session of the day, chasing my buddy in his S197.

Nice! Any videos?

Thanks - yeah, I have the videos somewhere, just not uploaded. I'll work on getting them up somewhere soon and put them in here. Nothing too special, but it'll at least give people some lines to critique.

This was my first time at Road Atlanta in the Mustang GT and its first time on a real track as all my other setup testing was done at Gateway Motorsports and it is nothing like Road America.

Car did great no temp issues at all but it was a little chilly there as the morning lows were 39* and the afternoon high was 58*. I am still fighting the shifter, 4th to 3rd downshift I seem to be getting 5th about 5% of the time, I added the Blowfish brace and it is so much better but looks like a shifter will need to be done if I do not move to the Tremic. My camera on the other hand had some issues, I had one that was forward facing and one inside the car to watch driver inputs. The forward facing camera did not record due to a SD card issue so all i have is the in car video with the video overlay, Sorry.
