Thanks🍻

No, all I own is a GoPro and didn't bring it up with me as I am only running a few sessions today then have to leave early for family party😩I

Still deciidng between my GT3 and GT4 as primary track car, so will invest in better data/video then...actually I don't know how much time I can spend analyzing data after sessions--pretty much do this just for fun and thrills--car is really fun to drive--got to work on my neck muscles next...very fatigued from lateral g forces!

Hey Matt can you add Pitt Race to the list?

1:59.57 in 91 degree weather😩☀️

I know I had many better laps but Harry's keeps losing signal--need a dedicated GPS data logger

I wanted to say it was pleasure speaking with Bill L. Terry L, and Don C. at the RTR WGI event. I picked up a few points from Bill and managed to run a quick lap time with an all stock car. While speaking with Bill, we were talking about ways to get ECU data for the Aim Solo without cutting the CAN BUS wires, and today I came across this product - a jumper harness (M-World Plug-n-Play Harness $200) that requires no cutting or splicing. Just wanted to share.

Your lines are great but you can carry a lot more speed in this car. I have the same setup as you without the toe links and run 1:52 consistently when there's no traffic, 1:50:2 being my personal best and I think there's still plenty of room for improvement.

Thanks for the video, but did not make it to top 5.

At those times, every few tenths of improvement makes a big difference. Congrats for improving your already quick time.

Thanks for the compliments. First time there, but hopefully not the last. Definitely picked up 9 seconds from the first day out there looking for more.
Cheers

At WGI with RTR, I ran 2:11.28 in full stock form (no video but Aim data). The car is exactly as it came from the dealer on Michelin Sport Cup 2s. I think the sway bars are at Medium; whatever they were set from factory. The car does suffer from high speed understeer but overall performs very well. I ran my hot tire temps (measured after coming off track) at 36 all around. I definitely think the car has the ability to hit a 2:10 or even a 2:09 in this form. I just need to stop braking too much from turn 9 to turn 11.

Tracked the GT4 last weekend at the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, KY.

Here's some fresh 4k video shot on a Garmin VIRB with a bluetooth ODBII dongle spitting out the car info. Amazing track... 23 turns. This was my best lap on Sunday afternoon.

This lap shows a 2:24.9 on OEM Michelins that were almost worn out, OEM alignment, roll bar, harness.

I know I wasn't the fastest GT4 that weekend, but not bad for my 2nd day ever there. Good to get this track on the board.

Great lap Joe! It was great to meet you. NCM is one of the most challenging tracks around. Your line is pretty spot on- great result for tour first trip there for sure. I have fairly junky go pro footage from Sunday morning with no data. So you own top honors!
