2:26 is probably a couple of seconds too slow. I would think 2:22 would be about right for a top PCA club racer.

So, a 10 second drop for street tires?

~12 seconds for an unprepared street car vs the PCA track record for that car...that seems about right to me.

Mighty white of you....

So instead of doing 2:18's, you did 2:16's?

Well, if I wanna go that slow, I will take you up on your offer!

VR what car do you have? I am sensing you are completely full of **** as well as annouying. You have never been to the track yet you offer track time advice ? Get a life man.

Annoying is spelled "annoying".

I have never been to the track? LOL! Yeah, if you say so.

Been erroneously judgemental long? Get a life indeed.

How did my :59 comment go unnoticed on page 1 of this thread? VR makes a comment about a 1:40 and the world blows up, I go :41 seconds faster than his estimate and everyone hates him?? Guess it's that whole BMW thing VR.
