Stock BRZ at Sebring - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Figured I'd post up in here for shits n gigs. Bought my BRZ on September 13th. Had it out at Sebring on the 15th. Bone stock, running with Porsche Club's instructor group

Just bought some 4 piston JDM brakes today as the car's brakes are already toast. Could use some tires as well, but I'm trying to wait on that expense.

Great to such nice smooth inputs on such a great rough track. Looks like you felt comfortable with observed -v- expected balance very quickly... were these your first laps out?

LDadrenaline · 09-30-2012, 11:44 PM

oh, and I bought some RBF600 as well which I'll flush in when I swap out the brakes.

yeah I haven't actually gone out to a DE or race with the purpose of driving in about a year. I put some data on a few client cars (MX-5 cup car, pair of M3s, GT3, and vintage 911) back in April, but that's all I've driven this year.

One of my bucket list tracks. So jealous!

Nice Driving!

Look forward to watching the videos when I get home from work. Did you get any laptimes? Interesting to see how it compares to my SpecE30. I will be racing at Sebring this weekend.

Porsche eater !! Great :-D

Lol @5:27 in the first vid. Nice driving.
Interesting camera placement too.

LDadrenaline · 10-02-2012, 12:42 AM

I like 6:15 in the second video the best... almost lose control of the car trying not to run into the back of a GT3RS

diirk · 10-02-2012, 10:53 AM

Excellent clips.

I'm curious where and what type of camera you have mounted.

Eurasianman · 10-02-2012, 11:29 AM

Did you do this with VSC and Traction on or off? Reason I asked is because you said the brakes were toast. From the other threads that I've read on this forum, if you track your car and have both of those on, then your brakes will not last long.

LDadrenaline · 10-03-2012, 07:55 PM

Press and hold traction for three seconds to turn everything off. I don't ever drive with the assists on. I can't stand anything interfering with my driving.

Camera is a GoPro Hero2. Mounted it on the back glass. I will try to mount it more forward the next time.

Great smooth driving!
