Looks like fun! I love it when "slow" cars are actually pretty fast
I hope you got to spend some time in Savannah, that's one of my favorite places. Fricking gorgeous...

Yes, went down to River Street for a little while Saturday night. Been to Savannah many times over the years, quite the unique city!
@ermax, you ever go to Roebling? Not that far from Jacksonville.

Won't be tracking again till the fall, back to my "home" track VIR. Before then planning to replace the AOS, install an LN Engineering deep sump kit, and of course...new tires lol.

I took my IS300 to RRR a few times but haven’t tracked the FRS at all other than autox. One of these days I will make it up there with the FRS. When you look at a track map of RRR it looks lame but I actually found it to be a ton of fun.

Oh and I also got married in Savannah. We try to make it up there a few times a year.

Yeah I noticed I was using a ton of wheel lock in that video. Hahaha.

I didn’t have any luck finding a version of the track for rF2 and I don’t have rF1 installed anymore so I can’t really test your driving line advice.
