FR-S sets new Time Trial track record at Roebling Road! - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Arsenal Autosport · 04-13-2013, 09:42 PM

Just got off track and wanted to give a quick update, full story to follow.

In the final session of the day today, and the only time I got on track, I set a new track record for the TTD class in NASA time trial competition at Roebling Road! The old record, held by my friend Dan Wildman in his S2000, was a 1:22.5.

I turned a 1:21.990 this afternoon and hope to improve on that a bit more tomorrow morning when it's nice and cool out.

More photos and video to follow from tomorrow's sessions! Mega thanks to John Visconti for helping sort out the tune too! Diagnosed a CEL via text message and had me back out in the hunt!

I love this car!

In for the video

Are you still using BC coilovers?

Arsenal Autosport · 04-14-2013, 03:01 PM

Still using BCs, yes.

Last time of the day was a 1:20.257, lowering the record another full second!

By the time I had clear track this morning I was on my 9th or 10th lap and the tires were past their prime laps for that session. The second session started with a clear lap right from the get go and I made it count! Video to come when I get home.

What are the wheel specs?

campy · 04-14-2013, 03:56 PM

What mods are you running other than wheels/suspension?

My question exactly, because whatever it it..its working

olddragger · 04-14-2013, 04:41 PM

I want to see that. A 1:20 at RR is only 7 secs slower than a prepared GTR.
I dont want to disclaim it --but we have been running that track for years and I know a LOT of people on R compounds tires/great brakes and good power/weight ratios that would love to have a 1:20 time there. Especially in a approx 12:1 car--if I remember right that is about the power to wgt ratio in TTD?

Are you going to be at Road Atlanta and if so what do you estimate you time will be there? If Roebling is a 1:20 then you should be able to do a sub 1:40 at RA?
Any vids?
Nice looking car

Always liked the black.

Vonsamhain · 04-15-2013, 01:05 AM

Good news. I plan o run ttd in nasa fore too long

Power to weight in TTD is actually 14:1. I don't know that I'll make it to Road Atlanta with the car this year. I've only been there twice before - once a long time ago, and once last year in a newly built racecar that I was helping shake down. I believe that Roebling Road is one of the strongest tracks for the FR-S because of the fast sweeping corners, I think it will suffer a bit at Atlanta because of the long uphill back-straight. 1:40 at Road Atlanta should be achievable. Sub 1:40? Not sure, I guess I'll need to give it a try. I may end up there in Nov or Dec in another car and If I can bring the Scion, I will.

Ask and you shall receive!

Was that a predicted laptime of 1:19 on the SoloII? Nice driving!

Gixxersixxerman · 04-15-2013, 04:16 AM

I love and loath that track.. I was running 1:28's on my GSXR 600 there.. Also binned it in turn 4 I believe think, for,some reason I could make it around 100mph... No.. I can't.. At least not that day.. That last corner.. The right handed that last forever.. Is tons of fun knee on the ground leaned over, trying to give it full throttle..

Nice work man
