I'm in Duncan.
best is a 1:23.5 with used Hoosiers. So we should be very close. that's good since the racing there has been average this year. most of my usual buddies have either crashed or missed the race for various reasons. in fact i've considered other racing venues for more competition, but just can't beat Hallett for cost, consistency of schedule, and geographic proximity

Not a particularly great lap. I'm way late getting to the gas in several turns, but it was the only session I managed to turn my camera on for, and the only clean lap I had in that session. At least it gives you a decent look at the track.

Hallet is my home track as well. I'd echo the above sentiments. Great group of people that run the track. Unpretentious, fun, no BS environment. That why I keep coming back.

track surface is pretty good actually, desite the appearance. the grip level doesn't change from one color patch to another.

I agree. The track might not look beautiful, but the grip is consistent throughout. And if it's good in the rain... I may just have to make it up there for a rain race! I love the rain.

1:23.5 is great. Ill have my work cut out for me. We will see how it goes. I may get to know the rear of a BMW bumper really well

thanks for the invitation. I tried one NASA race 2 years ago at the first of the year, and it was way crowded at MSR. my car was troubling me so I didn't even start any races.
I may think about NASA again next year, esp if I build a spec 944 or get a spec boxster
