Great lap! Really impressive speed.
FWIW I asked the Manthey guys earlier this year about pressures for the Dunlop's and they also said 36/37 reward is idea in their experience. Def likes more pressure and works better longer than the Cup2s.

Gas or brake, hardly anything in between. The tach never seems to touch 9000 rpm, looks like 8800 - 8900 interesting for a 1.2. The intake temperature is very cool - what set up are you using?
BTW, did you forget to buckle your chin strap?

Yes, nice and cool morning start, which is nice. I'm logging with an aim solo DL using the obd2 port. Sony action cams and race render software to overlay.

Wicked laps Joe, especially when you consider it was on street tires, I had some friends from Quebec, Canada (running slicks) out there for their first time and said there were a few cars flying out there...with you being one of them. Hope they weren't holding you up while they learned the track. You'll have to make a trip East one day to see our great tracks.

Wow, that’s fast. The flat 6 sounds demonic. Great video too,
Thanks to @oldskews4 for putting on a great event a Laguna Seca today. I was able to set a new personal best of 1:33.0 with my RS today. I'm quite happy with that, but clearly the car can do 1:32s, so I'll keep pushing the next time I'm out.
Car was running OEM dunlop sport maxx race 2 tires. I set them at 27F/29R psi stone cold, went out and drove the car slowly at first, but progressively faster. By the 5th lap I pushed for my flyer and got 1:33.0. When I came in, tire pressures were at 35F/38psi. I dropped them down to 33/36psi and went out again right away. Continued to get 1:33s, but nothing better. Weather started to get warm too. I'm wondering if next time I should not even bleed any pressure at all and just start out 27/29 and call it a day. Running AP calipers and rotors with Ferodo DS3.12 pads
