Nice! I love the sound that thing makes.

When I was there with Chin I got a few pro tips that helped drop some time off my laps that might help you too next time there.

For turn 7, brake at the 1 marker and run completely across turn 7a; there is a large concrete pad beyond that apex curbing, and the car should be on almost the entire concrete pad.

Flat out through 9/10, you'll be able to do it by using every inch of the runoff pad after 10 to the left, which I think I gained the most amount of time in that area of the track.

Here's a lap with Mark Hicks of Chin Motorsports, who has a ridiculous amount of experience at this track and got me to shave a few seconds off my lap times, and I was able to get a 1:54 out of the car; stock engine, just pads and fluid and 215 Pilot Super Sports WITH a ~200lb passenger.
