You can go into t3 at 105 or higher

You should be at 130 (cool day) top of esses w/o even tracking too far left
You trying to kill me?? LOL.
I agree with the rest. My car did not push because front tires were better then rear tires.

OK, shoot for 100 t3 and 125 top of esses and you'll get a high 2 hehe

Or just get some yoko slicks

Thanks. I actually prefer a car that understeers a bit, although next event was going to stiffen the rear and see how that goes.

I hope that didn't come across wrong. Great driving. I'm jealous. I say this only because I had the same problem for awhile until I adjusted sways and different compression settings.

Fritz, that's a monster number at the TOP of the esses. You know of any vids with data overlay on this? Do you have to use the short cut over the curbing/grass/dirt on the first right hander (hump) at the bottom the esses to ring out such a number?

I had data but just erased everything including all the settings etc.... trying to figure out how to connect the frikken thing to the software on my computer. I hate this kind of thing. Anyone want to buy a traqmate?

When Brent uploaded it the data was all kinds of crazy because the antennae was flying all around the car so I'm sure my #s are not accurate. I'm probably going about 115 at the top of the esses and 90 into t3

Do what Mooty did, drive over Traqmate and you'll feel good once about Traqmate..

This was a fun weekend - I was there in #16 6GT3. Track was slippery, haven't gone through all my data, but it looks like 2:05 might have been it for me.

You guys must be doing something different if you're entering T3 at 105 and Oak Tree at 87. My 2:05 lap had me at 70 through T3 and around 45 in Oak Tree (these are lowest speeds through the corner - this is per data, speedometer is not very accurate).

Perfect, but I'll try eagle rs Goodyear first. We still have Canada and California to hit


Then Erik still has ra1 to use up, too cheap to buy new tires....we make his life miserable with him on ra1 and us on slicks
