Do you have an oil cooler?

Also based *purely* on the GPS traces, this looks suspiciously like what happens when I compare my data to @ImperiousRex's data in the same car: he brakes earlier, enters the turns slower, but more composed, and gets on the gas earlier.
Yes, I have an oil cooler. This was actually my first event with it installed and it worked great. Oil temps stayed below 235 or so.

I really wish the other guy had a Solo DL that would work with his car. It would be really interesting to see how his throttle work compares to mine in the turns. I may play around with my suspension settings a bit to see if I can let myself get on the throttle earlier as I don't seem to have much understeer yet. Running 4 clicks from full stiff up front and 5 in the back.
