If I had a PDK (and I am pretty much never planning on it, unless racing), I would take 3rd entering the corner. My problem is that 3rd will run out of RPM at a time when getting off the gas would be bad. 4th also makes it easier to modulate the throttle, though I don't think I need that as much now as when I started driving the GT4. A PDK in T16-18 has a big advantage, probably a 1/2 to a second.

Was at COTA this weekend and lucked upon a fast lap. It's worse driving and in traffic, but it was much colder than my previous best - so car was stronger and muscled its way to a faster lap.

Comparison (red) to previous best (blue). You can clearly see the impact of the cold temps on power in the straights. Pretty much everywhere I was driving at a lower pace...but power made up for it.

Looking good Colin! The track was relatively slow this past weekend as well, so there's a chunk of time there. If you'd run the same in November-January when we had some really good track conditions, you'd have thrown down some very impressive lap time haha. You should play some cat and mouse with "robziv", you two would have a heck of time together haha.
