Pretty cool video, thank you! Any suspension or performance mods on the car? If you can you share the data in any standard format, i would love to overlay and compare it to mine.

Also worth a separate discussion re Pilot SuperSports vs ZII's. After driving a few track days on Pilot SuperSports I can say though the grip is decent, and I really like how the car slides very predictably, these are NOT good track tires. Side wall is too soft so gets ruined pretty quickly on the front. Any feedback on ZII's?

ZII's have been great for me, very communicative and predictable at the limit. Supposedly the Star Spec version is even better and I am planning on getting a set of those when my current ones are worn out. Mine have held up pretty good and haven't had any issues with the fronts wearing out too fast, I just make sure to rotate them to the rear after each event.

As for the data, I'll send you a PM to figure out what sort of format would work for you.

Mods: JDL EL header, HRI Tune, HC+800 pads, G-four fluid, Redline Performance oil


Notes/Comments: Novice group as this is only my 1st track event. I got to run 7 sessions over the course of the day and I'd have to say consistency was my biggest challenge at the end of the day. The videos below are of my afternoon sessions.

BRZ @ Sebring

Track: Sebring International - Full Course (12/13/14)
Car: BRZ (N/A)
Mods: 235/40 R17 Direzza II's, Swift Springs/Stock Dampers, Cobalt XR2's with RBF600, Nameless Exhaust System.

Notes/Comments: 3rd HPDE attended
Video: [ame]http://youtu.be/LlfDRv20pJs[/ame]


Got a few clean laps. Lap 5 according to Larry's Lap Timer was the fastest.
It looks as though the speed has a bit of a delay, tired to sync them as best as possible, but looks like a 1/2 sec. delay for the speed and g-force gauge...

T1, T13, T16 & T17 I think are areas that I can improve on.
T1(still a bit timid about T1 & T17)
