great job John! I'm glad you finally met your goal! I'll be out there next weekend with PCA. Hope to see you there?

Veloce Raptor

I know it's not totally relevant...but also at MVP/COTA this past weekend: driving client's GT4 ClubSport on Pirelli DH's (7 heat cycles) with a JRZ suspension for reference laps...MoTeC showed 2:19.91 in sunny dry conditions Saturday and 2:27.08 yesterday in damp & drizzling conditions. Waiting on his data guy to extract video files for each.

jslee225: Thanks - I just barely edged you out!! I'm not planning to run at COTA next weekend as my son has started racing karts and we are trying to run more of the kart schedule (much to my wife's dismay). We might stop by to say hi to some folks and if we do I will find you and see how your weekend is going.

I'll wait to hear about your 227s (maybe 226s) as you'll definitely get there (assuming no rain).

Veloce Raptor: nice times! Didn't think even the Clubsport would be sub-2:20!!

Veloce Raptor

Thanks, it was a stretch. One clean lap...

Great lap John! Chasing you guys was fun, even though I wasn't close enough to call it a chase.


Yowza, very nice.. want to see that video! I know there are two GT4 CS drivers there that would love your coaching because even I was passing two of them all weekend.

I was also out at COTA this weekend running with Electron Mike. Got my best time at COTA ever in the am with a passenger and then running in a pack with Electron Mike and Jgarvish posted my 2nd best time also with a passenger funny about that.
Same conditions as Veloce Raptor.
Best time 2:33.48 on RE71R's. Mods. 2/2.5 camber sway bar med/hard. Harness bar Sparco seat and harness.



If someone would tell me how to upload my video from Harry's Lap Timer, I would be happy to post it but I am IT challenged. LOL

BTW passed 40,000miles on the drive home. I am suspecting I have more total miles than the rest of the GT4's at COTA combined.

orthodx2000

Very nice!!! Which run group were you in and which GT4 CS?
I was also out there in my blue GT4 in green group with Electron Mike and Jgarvish. Posted my best time ever Sat AM.


You might not remember but you worked with me last year at this event on Sunday. IT is really starting to pay off now, Thanks for the help!

orthodx2000

Congrats!!!! Lots of fun running with you. Think I got my fast lap same session, it was fun running with you!

Veloce Raptor

I do remember and I did see your car and its OK license plate! Couldn't find you though.

All white CS. I drove it in Blue. Both CS clients (other car had a subtle wrap) were in other run groups

orthodx2000

Both of us, but there was that one time, wondering if he was running in green group with us.

Veloce Raptor

No. One client was in green, one in yellow. I didn't drive in either group

video best lap at COTA 2/25/17 2:33.49


re71's, 2/2.5 camber harness bar and seat


Electron Mike tutored me on uploading the video and was my rabbit for my run.
Thanks, Mike!

That was a fun session, can't beat the weather we had on Saturday with a relatively open F1 track!

Jgarvish

orthodx2000: Nice lines in your video. You were doing a good job trying to chase down electron mike! Very fun session with you both!
