#trackdaybro. Texas World Speedway. Hot as hell.

Got to try out my new rubber. Maxxis VR-1 255/40/17 on RPF1s 17x9 +35.




Tires were great. Grip for days. But I think I might have been faster with a 225--these fatties definitely slowed me down on the main straight.

Another problem was that I couldn't get enough camber. I rubbed a little on the passenger side when under load.



I also tried out using a gopro for the first time. Unfortunately the exterior view is blown out and you can hardly see. But I got a new PR!

Shortly after my fastest lap, I made a mistake. I lost focus and understeered right off the outside of T4. Pulled into the pits because it sounded weird. Took a look under the car, and:




Whoops. There goes the support bracket from my JDL UQFP.

Overall, it was a great weekend. Some glamour shots:
