And you judged that how? By watching all 60 minutes of footage, or by reading other peoples posts, or by actually being there?

Did you not read my previous post? I don't feel the need to reiterate.

Based on that scale I would be surprised if anybody gave you more than a 7/10 based on those videos. Sure you could build some passable slip angle a few times per lap but it was inconsistent and you weren't on the proper line with correct throttle and braking application, key points in that metric in order to be rated above a 6/10.

As noted by racers line, the only reason you aren't exceeding the grip of those 245 re71rs with your setup is because of the driver. We have very similar setups, same tires, stock powertrain, custom spring rates, my Bilsteins are custom valved and I'm running a more aggressive alignment than you, and I do not feel at all that the car is 'over tired'.

Signed up for Sept 10th with NCRC yesterday. Saw point-by was yellow and didn't want to risk it.
