Nice run. It was cool to meet you mark thanks for answering all my questions . I believe the next closest BRZ/FRS was at 2.11 or .12.

Yep i am waiting for the call sucks it was due this week and they got a whiteout in but it has a factory wing which i do not want and my deposit is on a bone stock one anyhow...so the wait continues. Have my eye on the June runs at laguna seca.

Nice, very nice,....Don't know what the Elise was running tire wise but when you can hold a tighter line than a Elise (as you did on many corners),....thats a very good thing and speaks volumes for this car.

Nice driving! Chasing down 'faster' cars is always a blast!

I might have to get those JDM knee pads.
I know what you mean, my right knee/upper calf were killed the day after I was on the track lol! Makes me want to put some pads in like Toyota did for the Long Beach celebrity race...

I think you have more "ride along" time with me than anyone else with a FRS/BRZ...

Good deal! I'm always down to drive with more FR-S/BRZ's! We need more of them out at the track, and not at the local hard-parking meets at Starbucks haha

Unfortunately I don't have any pics of the camera mounted. I am using a Replay XD camera with a suction cup mounted to the inside of the rear window, about 5" down from the top of the window.

I don't think I'll be able to make the BW event on the 14th I will be at Chuckwalla though the following weekend with Raceline USA events!
