I think the mediocre GPS in my phone cut a bit of the lap, so it was maybe a bit closer 1:52. However, I think this was definitely still the quickest lap of the day for me. I know @ rice_classic spends a lot of time here so I'd love to have his feedback!
Had a great time with ProFormance, as always. Top rate group with great instructors and support. Pacific Raceways can be a fairly intimidating track, but the support of the community makes it a great experience, I'd recommend it to anyone for that alone.
I had a bit of a surprise towards the end of the day. A friend I'd met at a prior track day was out with his E92 M3. We switched for about 18 minutes in the last session and I was majorly impressed with that car. Going from the basically stock BRZ to the M3 was a bit eye-opening. That V8 is definitely one of the all-time greats. |
You're doing the right thing for a ProFormance day, following the track-day line and maximizing it. Watching that lap, it looks (and sounds) like you're getting the most out of the car and tires and you're approach to 5a is outstanding. Just keep learning and don't start making changes to your car unless you've reached a plateau in development. Changing while learning does not allow one to learn from the changes.
