I'm fairly new to this, so I would say I really don't know. But after saying that, the gears in my head are turning.


Would video help assess this? This video is of my 2 fastest laps (1:15.82 & 1:15.9) from that day, both occurring during run #5. I would also welcome constructive criticism and tips to pick up time:

The RaceChrono laps times during that day said I was very consistent in each session, which is a plus. Watching my driving, though, I do believe I need to get smoother, and be more aggressive on the brakes.

Top speed on the back straight was 172km/hr or about 108MPH.


For reference, a former National Formula Ford champion laps this same configuration in a Hayabusa-powered Radical SR3 in 1min 3 seconds.
