I will add my endorsement here, and am working with Larry and Bob to team up when appropriate. They are helping drivers without necessarily getting into the right seat, and it strongly compliments what I do in the right seat & with data after I am in the right seat.

Larry and I are simply providing an affordable way to get better, but leave the door open for a driver/racer that may still want max attention with a pro coach. This is simply a bridge that exposes a drivers potential and helps remove bad habits.

CJ is has a 997.

No guarantee on how much time you can improve, but I hope you would see an improvement that is a fraction of what you would spend on the car to get the same results.
Congrats to CJ! Sounds like a great program.

There are definitely certain ways to use the rear-engine configuration more efficiently at Thunderbolt, especially in the back... I really enjoyed laying out the curbing there!

Love that place, I'm down to 1:22's with 125 bhp!

Peter saw your video and it helps. That 1:22 is a nice lap. What chassis was that in?

LOL Anyone reading, god help you if get a driving compliment here and your lap times aren't ALMS worthy. Next I will hear about the one legged midget unicyclist that turned 1:30s,... in the wind. Bob, next time just say I was faster. Happy Spring Solstice all.

We need to get you a DP car ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^. I still think what you did in a pretty much stock car with a basic R tire is commendable. Paolo was looking for relevance to his car which I have been in at the Glen so I will side bar that conversation.
