Those are some fast times! Maybe it is just me but your car looks like it accelerates pretty damn fast. Def faster than my stock car. Have you dyno'd your car yet?

Beautiful driving! I'd love to follow you around and learn a thing or two!

Awesome hot laps.

Thanks!! Ya I dyno'ed my car at about 178 whp and 150 wtq.

I do noticed after installing PST CF DS and Raceseng S2 Pulley Kit - the car accelerate a bit faster. I was with my good buddy bone stock BRZ engine with Rival 225/45/17, by comparing our datalog - not much difference in acceleration - for example i was able to hit max 112 mph at the end of the straight and he hit max 110 mph. He's on this forum, @Doborder, a very very good driver, I learned a lot from him and also @orthojoe taught me everything lol!! (he is the one who got me into this hobby)

Ya we should figure out a track day that we can drive together and learn from each other!! There are endless things to learn on the track thats what makes it so fun and addictive!!

LOL I think I only reach 105 on that front straight... I only put down 160 whp 134 wtq. I wonder how much top speed there is determined by power vs. exit speed from the previous corner. hehe

Both r crucial elements!! LoL. I tried to hit WOT as early as possible exiting Turn 14

Ya it took me sometimes to learn the line right so I can WOT as soon as I apex the turn at 14 and stay WOT via 15.

Turn 15 is the most scariest turn, if u loose control exiting - Dont Try To Save- keep steering wheel straight both feet on clutch and brake and go off into the benign dirts - trying to save will lead u straight into the wall on right hand side

What is @RehabJeff86 talking about... My best time is 2:10 bypass and 2:14 over the top.
I have much to learn from Jeff. My car is stock except Rival which improves the
Stability of the car. Stock Michelins actually have a lot of grip, but it is much less predictable at the limit. My max lateral G is about the same with both tires 1.1-1.2. Rivals are much more predictable when it is losing grip. Jeff is still an awesome driver despite what he says!

OEM primacys do NOT hold 1.1-1.2Gs. They hold about 0.9-1.0Gs. That is a significant difference. Go back and check your datalogs. You can't look at peak data, otherwise you'd be quoting numbers like 1.3 or 1.4. You have to look at sustained Gs. Turn 2 at thill is the best place to read it.

Go back and review your video and mine as we go through turn 2. You get 1.1-1.2 Gs, but I get 0.9-1.0Gs

Damn shi fu always bustin my balls

I'll give you an extra .1 for that day since it was 106F out. If you look at my laguna and sonoma vids when I was still on primacy HP, the numbers were 0.9-1.0G.

Lol
