Ron - You have a link to it? I searched on Summit, PCA, etc. and all I found was the 07 Club Race. Is that what you are referring to?

Doubtful.... that boxster looked to be extremely well driven despite still being a stock car.

Boston, most of the other comments here are spot-on. Watching the video, I saw you apexing early in a number of places, and thus your steering wheel was still turned well past apex, whereas you could see (especially in the M3) that his/her front wheels were mostly straight beginning at apexes. This seemed especially apparent in T1 on the 2nd lap... Also, as others said, roll to power much sooner. Your car NEEDS to be on the throttle whenever you are not on the brake.

Three Wheelin'
I wouldn't be too hard on yourself. New track, very slippery with street tires. Too bad the camera can't register that. I will agree with the other posters...that turn in on 1 is where you lost them and never recovered. I have been left there many a time by a faster car, but you lost it because of the early turn in. That's actually a good learning video for others in that respect.
It's very tough not to overbrake 10, but that's one of the corners where you can really gain a lot of ground on people. I always find that corner easier when I have guys in front of me...forces me to slow down more. With R compounds and can just stick it and go .... it's very fast.
