Post production is a total PITA the first few times you do it. I have templates now, and I've done it so many times that it takes little time and effort to make them now. There is a steep learning curve though.

Unacceptable.

And here is a PB from my home track, Thunderhill, at this past weekend's club race. This is the 3 mile Cyclone course. It was my first time in this car at TH. I did a 1:59.9. Plenty more to be found. I'm still trying to grapple with moving from a rear engine Cup car to a mid-engine street car with 50 or so less horsepower and less aero.

My car has the stock engine and exhaust. The tires are well worn Hoosier R7's. The suspension is all monoball.

I didn't realize my fastest lap included two passes. The first pass caused me to screw up turns 3 and 4 because there's no way that was the fast line through there!

COTA - 2:31.50 - 100% stock car, stock brakes, stock alignment with stock 20" wheels and RE71R

I tell you what, once you get the lumbar dialed in for the 18 way sofa sports seats... it's worth close to a second per lap!

Doborder's car is pretty much the identical setup with mine except he doesn't have the DSC unit. RE71R tires on their last day. You can hear me swear to myself after screwing up T11 and then the disappointment after crossing the line. LOL

Couple of "stock cars", race GT3s and a GT3 RS in my run group. Very fun. I'll have to find some videos of the stock cars passing me -- my ears were ringing.

Ended up with a fast lap of 2:09.74 on the full course.

At NJMP I play with a lot of 997 and 991 GT3s and never really felt under powered. However, following this 991 GT3 RS really makes me want a boost feature on the straights.

You guys running 2:03s have some serious speed. I believe I have about 2 secs left but beyond that, my pucker factor would be way too high.

(BTW - Matt - my NJMP Thunderbolt time of 1:29.86 (see post #550) still need to be added.)
