My car has become the whore of NYR lol so it's gotten a ton of runs on them. I'm definitely close to 200 runs at this point.

Great time today!!! Great seeing you guys and meeting Eric. You car looks and sounds sick! Great driving everyone too! I wish I was faster though.
Comparing data from AIM Solo is real fun! I should have brought a laptop to the event. I would have known right away where I was losing time comparing to engee! Last left hander before finish costed me like 0.3 sec (I guess I never got that turn right). Not being flat out from the end of the second slalom to tight right hander was another almost 0.3 sec. Interesting thing is how early you, Leo, shift to second gear comparing to myself. You basically were making right turn after start and throwing it into second. I actually almost red-lined it in first. Looking at the data - that was another easy 0.3-0.4 sec for you to pick up. Fun stuff!

SORCERY!!!!

I shift to second early so I do not have to deal with the shift during those first couple of turns. It may be slower but the car feels more composed. I'll try shifting later at the next event though.

You're comparing your 55:9 right?
