Took the FRS back out to Raceway Park of the Midlands for a Fast Friday. My intentions were to just have a bit of fun with it while we were testing out our Lemons car, but I ended up setting a new PB!

Man if that place was any bumpier, you'd need rally suspension! Great work on the PB, that was a very clean looking lap.

Sent it a little bit too hard this time around and ended up off track.

Mid Ohio did some damage, but we managed to set a new PB at least!

Nice work, dude! Bummer about the off, but at least you picked a relatively harmless place to do it. I've got a lot of (two-wheel) laps at that place, and T1 can be tricky as heck.

Looks good.
Curious why you decided to add aero?

Doing what I can to increase cornering speeds. The time attack class I'll be running in next year allows for some minor aero modifications like a wing and front splitter so I'm installing all of that now so I can get comfortable with how the car feels.
Even at a very low AOA I could definitely feel the difference taking the car out to Gingerman Raceway. Even with a front splitter I was experiencing a bit of understeer so I still need to make some tweeks. |
