Some updates on aero...

Went to Road Atlanta, definitely more grip in corners. Most noticeable differences in turn 1 where I was carrying extra 3-4 mph, entering the esses where I could go flat out at the top of the hill instead of waiting a split second for the car to settle, and in turn 12 where I think I should be able to go flat out in 4th once I get used to the aero. Did a 1:42.33 (Harry's Lap Timer) compared to previous 1:44's.

6th session of the day got cut short due to a flat on the back straight; the driver front tire got cut on the inside sidewall. There is paint missing from the coilover spring so the tire must have touched the spring. Not sure though if the tire touched after it got flat and mushroomed on the inside or it was touching here and there and it took 6 sessions to weaken the sidewall.
