Yeah it but the wheelie bump after grapevine sort of makes up for it. I want to bring the Soup up there but Chuckwalla seems like a much better choice.

I'm want to try and make the Dec 21st track day at Willow. But I need to go over the car and bringing her to urdreamcar garage on the 23rd to check everything underneath and swap out my DP and tranny mount.

How are these guys and anybody planning on going?

The last time I was at BW, I was running 1:55's on my R6 and 1:29's @ big track during a regular trackday. Bringing my car to the track is going to be completely newb experience for me.

That's actually the best time!! If you think a wet track day is bad on 4 wheels, it's even sketchier on 2. This was from 2012.


Morning


Around 11am

I set the camera in the software to focus the brightness on the center of the image, and now it looks much better.

What mods do you have to your car btw?
Im using the gopro 1 HD, but im a software stupid and don't know if gopro is able to do that... do you know if gorpo is able to do that?

I have seat and steering wheel, also 17x9 with 255 RS3 and project mu club racer brake pad. I'm going to switch using AD08R and change suspension when I hit 2:04.9, rightnow my best lap on this car is only 2:06.5, still long way to go

Wow, if you can hit under 2:05 on stock suspension, that would be awesome! Keep us posted

Just a little update, I was able to do a 2:05.8 lap with the same set up.
I think its really doable for under 2:05 if the tires(255) and weather is nice!
here is the video:
