Here you go. Boring as there were only a few of us on the 3.1 mile that day.

Nice driving, Sam. Are you still using the MPSC2? What are you impressions of the car as you continue to track it? Any aspects you've come to like more or less with additional seat time in the car?

SamFromTX

Thanks. Yes, still same tires and loving it. I'm going to decrease front negative camber to -2.5, as I think -3 is too much and there may be more grip to be had. Still haven't used the pyrometer but the insides are wearing more, even with limited street driving.

Thanks for posting Sam, as always.
LOL at 1:00 and 2:30 :-)

Any plans to go and see more tracks? Travel a bit further

Sam it looks like you're driving in automatic mode? If so, the car is doing a pretty good job of shifting.

Looks like PDK-S auto to me too. Pretty fricking amazing how well it down shifts and when.

Nice driving, Sam! Thanks for posting!

SamFromTX

Yes, auto mode on track for me when I'm trying to make good lap times. Manual is much more fun for sure but auto is faster, without a doubt. The PDK-S is indeed awesome as the downshifts are right on. Rarely, it will short shift but that usually happens in turns that will accept that and I compensate by more throttle in the higher gear without a need to override.

When are you connect connect a CAN line to that solo and do some data overlay?

SamFromTX

Yeah, need to get to it but have no idea how to overlay the data on the gopro. Maybe I should look into the smartiecam??

orthojoe

Smartycam is definitely the easiest way to go, but the video and audio quality are pretty bad.

If you have some fiddling skills, I've found dashware to be the easiest data overlay software to use. They let you download a trial version so you can play around with it to see if it's worth the extra effort or not.

Here's an example of how smarty cam audio/video turns out (audio sounds like you are in a fish tank, and video is grainy with poor color):

Awesome SAM!!! Can you layout your changes from stock, and why you did each? I believe you have done the following: GT2 buckets (direct install, airbags still work, no warnings), GMG roll cage, 6 pt harness, HNR device (HANS I assume?), added the steering wheel red stripe (nice touch), changed the stock camber settings (what is your current geo sheet these days?), brake fluid (to what?), pads (to what?), Hot tire pressure at what?, etc, etc Basically a review of what you have been playing around with. Thanks thanks thanks in advance!!!!

orthojoe

to Sam for being the pioneer and getting gt2 buckets to work on the car.

great driving but.... what is this contraption you keep reaching to with your right hand?? Very unusual.
