- year end event - snow tires are now on the car
- 5888s are at the end of their useful life - about 40 25 minute heat cycles (there is tread left but grip is much lower than it was)
- the tires could definitely handle a few more track days before cording but the tires are much slower than they were (still predictable and come up to speed quickly - i run them at 33f/36r hot)
- fellow driver at the track that i was hanging with asked if i wanted to have the car filmed from his car from in front (never had this before so said yes)
- this is a 1:42 pace at Mosport (8/10ths)
- smooth DE pace hitting the marks
- he was driving a 997 3.8C4s with MPSCs
- it was a sunny day about 60 degrees
- my usually DE lapping pace is 1:39

It was hard not passing him but at least I have the video
I did a 137 earlier in the day but since I don't trailler I have to leave a safety margin
It was a quiet day and it was just nice running with someone on the track and then dive bombing him in 5a
I ran with him most of the day - great guy but on at least a few laps I thought about going inside of him on 4 because he overslowed but I had to resist
The Apex guys run a very clean event and they didn't like it if I got any closer so thus the poor video
