I saw another Silver GT3 .2 with Pirelli DH and AP Brakes. Super fast, but I'm guessing that was not you? I might be confusing the white one with the wing extensions.

Nice driving! I couldn't keep up in the GT4, about 2 seconds behind you.

1 second per minute of lap time on average. At VIR, maybe a bit more.

A 2:00 lap time at VIR in a GT4 is really moving!

Fun lap on the 3.1 mile configuration at MSR Cresson, TX. Fairly technical track.

1:40.51 lap time @ Laguna on a mostly factory stock setup GT3 - this puts me with in 2 seconds of my all time best lap in a '10 Cupcar on full slicks - progress is being made.

Why is your telemetry data in km/h? This is MERIKA! Also doesn't show RPM or gear? Gotta get that stuff working man. Good lap time though. Great video too. What camera are you using?

@Hams955 Great video! What lap times you running on the 3.1? Are you running hoosiers or cup2's?

I always go out in the rain, and am rarely passed unless someone has rain tires, but on this day I was being passed left and right by cars on regular street tires. The second day, on the dry track, the grip was fine. So I learned that the grip of these tires renders them almost unusable on wet tracks at colder temps in the 50s and especially 40s, even when the tire has a decent amount of tread.
Great observation and consistent with my experience with the N1 Cup 2s. The N1’s appear to be more sensitive to cold and moist/damp weather than the prior N0’s. It sounds contradictory that the newer tire appears to have worse wet traction than the tire it is replacing but that’s been my experience. I am going to try the Dunlop Race Maxx 2’s next season, for reference!

100% stock 991.1 GT3 included stock pads. Currently thinking DSC V3, track pads, and probably new tires for next season, if you guys have any recommendation, please share.
