We laughed hard!
Love your grunt incar at T15LOL.
Guys keeping Grady behind is not easy, he'll put a Lemans move on you, I could not afford a samll mistake. Hahahaha.

Thanks for uploading :-)

I never went to 2nd at the hairpin, but you have much longer gearing with your 19"
I did not go to 3rd out of T17 either, but theat might be a bit faster as well.

BTW, I fixed t16 the next day, started taking it like Grady.

I had similar with the 3.8RS on slicks! if I keep them behind the lose the exit speed that negates the HP of the 4.0, so I have to block, overslow into and at Apex and make sure I power clean out of the corners :-) Once they pass, they have about the same laptime. makes for fun!!

I really like that new data system you guys are using. Very slick.

T2/T3 again...

Both of you guys need (IMHO) to use a bunc more of the apex curb at 7...get right up to the tires...really straightens out your exit MUCH sooner and keeps you away from that ugly dirt hole at the apex curbing on the left.

Also, yeah, in 16 there is absolutely no reason to go so wide on entry. Why would you want to point so far left when you want to go right? really makes it hard for the car to work well there. Grady has it right.

Display is a little, meh...

But other than that, 2 thumbs up. What brand again? I remember being at Randy's house looking at the boxes before he installed it. Quality seems excellent.

T2/3 I can fix like how I used to take it only if I change the car to trail brake again.
For now, kinda learning to drive the car with a bit more push on slow corners before I go back.

T7..That is always the plan, but late in the day, worn pads, cooked tires, could not always get there LOL!

T16agreed, I was just trying to let the car "float" adding lots of distance to get more apex speed.
the car wanted to go left after hugging the curbs on the left under braking. Did not work, I tried it for 3 days looking at data while messing with setup and gave up, back to stabbing brake in straight line..

I love the muted display, but you can design it yourself so it can be whatever you want it to be. You for exapmple could have real fancy buble bee graphics and other loud abnoxious clashing color dials and stuff..
