It was great meeting you all yesterday. Hope to see more participants as the season goes on. As for my car/set up:
2014 FRS
* Stoptech Street Performance brake pads
* Stoptech slotted brake rotors
* Stoptech stainless steel brake lines
(I got the kit

* Stoptech STR 660 DOT4 brake fluid
* 215/45R-17 Dunlop Direzza ZII
And lastly, -1.2 front camber was dialed in.
Nothing else was done to the car.
2:11.16 was done by my buddy (with me in it) who is an extremely experienced driver, and it was his first time driving a FRS/BRZ. The tires had 4 track days (approx. 18-20 heat cycles) on it before yesterday (Saturday). He would've done sub 2:10 I wasn't riding in it. Out of the 4 laps that he ran, he also did another lap with 2:11.18 so it was not just 1 fast lap. The car & the drive are both consistent.
Just for sh!ts and giggles, I gave other buddy, who is also an experienced driver, my last session of the day and he did 2:13.73 by himself
My best was 2:18.48 with the exactly same setup (but no front camber dialed in and brand new ZII) at T-Hill Bypass.
BW is a bit too far for me, so hope to see you all again at THill or Laguna Seca.

Also, @ icemang17 piloted my Vortech FR-S to a 2:13 before we had to pit for CEL. He didn't drive it like he did his stock FR-S and the brakes had too much bite. Granted, if he had more time with the car, he would have utilized the brakes to his advantage. 2:18 in his 100% stock FR-S.
Either way, impressive drivers!!! |
