Nice driving! Watkins is my home track, logged 15,000 miles on that track over the years.

If you're running Hoosier R7's you can keep your foot absolutely planted from Turn #1 all the way up The Esses to The Bus Stop. Just have to believe your car CAN do it.

You'll be running low 1:58's no problem.

Not sure. Never had issue with my brakes. Camaro brakes with Hawk DT70 front and DT60 in the rear are waaaaaaay better then my stock RS. Obviously Porsche needs to had a street friendly pad so no surprise. Post up some NJ Lightning vids! Wanna see 1:09
My buddy races T1 C5 vette fully built from Phoenix Racing and he was just testing and he was running 10s two weeks ago.
What tires are you running?

Here is a vid of my Camaro. Lots of traffic but fun.

I'll dig it up trust me if you can do 1:26 at Thunderbolt (see above) you can do 1:09 at Lightning not breaking a sweat

Also better visibility in the rear view as the wing is now taller than before. Still obstructs but now is closer to the top of the window as opposed to dead center.

Waxer, great review. Thanks. Heightens the anticipation. Do you run with NNJR?

GT3 Jockey isn’t just fast, he is a great instructor and a nice guy.

When that little needle goes into the red, that's bad Cole....lol
Dude, don't you love how people give you a point by to the right as they steer to the right??? and as you are on the left side of them coming in hot.
Nice driving Nick, you must love the manual.

What is above in your post is my video...

What tires are you running to do 9s?
I posted a video of 1:26 lap at Thunderbolt. That's what I meant by see above!!!
I ran 1:09 at Lightning on Hoosiers. Pirelli DH is probably good for 1:08 maybe high 1:07. That's not bad for a street car. What's your best time in your camaro? Your video didn't show lap times

Waxer congratulations on the RS. I still have to wait about 2 months for mine. I'm quite confident you can break 2 min at the Glen with right set up.

Waxer congratulations on the new RS. I still have a long two month wait for mine. This car is easily a sub 2 min car at the Glen with the right set up. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise

Look at your post no vid.

I know, I was pissed when I got home. The vid software is built into the car (Cosworth). The next day I switched SD cards and it worked!! I have no idea what was wrong with sd card as it saved vid files but not the gps stuff....
