This is the first track day with the e85 tune, muffler delete, crash bolts for camber, and the WinMax W3 pads (which I glazed by the end of the day somehow). Still on stock suspension other than the camber bolts. Michelin PSS 225/45 on Enkei PF01 17x8.

Automagic transmission

I picked a few laps from each session that were close to my reference lap of 1:17.3.

I'll apologize for the quality of the audio, but not for my music selection.

First session:

Second session was cut short due to an off (not me). I'll post that footage later and ask for everyone's feedback though since it was another FRS and was directly in front of me.


Third session:

Fourth session:

Fifth session:

My phone missed several laps from each session, and it didn't pick up any laps from the last session.

I always look forward to constructive criticism! thanks guys!

So first thing, the natural noises around you on a race track can give you alot of information. You likely will gain a good chunk more information if you turn your radio off.

I didn't watch all of your videos but a couple of items I did notice:

Not sure what was up with following that Porsche, but at one point you start wobbling the car around like you see in F1 while under yellow. This is a bad idea, you don't need to scrub off street tires and sometimes people spin their car in the middle of a straight playing "race car driver warming up tires".

In terms of line, I think you need to get someone who has competitively raced on that track/configuration to help you with where to go. I saw alot of pinched corners, late turn ins, a line not accounting for value of the second turn on a tightly coupled pair, etc. A little instruction on where to be will probably net you quite a good reduction in lap times.
