To date, I clocked a 7:18sec. I think I can shave another sec or two off that with some suspension tweaking.
Damn quick. race tires I assume? I've found that tuning wise, the easiest way to lower lap times on the car is to work heavily on the rear suspension setup. A slightly softer rear with the right limited slip and gearing can put the power down out of corners much better. You lose a bit of responsiveness but the corner exit speeds go up so much that it doesn't matter.
