WOW, where did the time go, since my last post on Have done 2 more track events...
SCCA Track Night Wednesday at AMP Best Lap 1.42.37
and
JZill Saturday at Barber Motorsport Park.. Best Lap 2:00:49
But these were not done in the Z, they were done in my Type-R.
Interesting car to drive...
AMP, it was ok, since its technical track. Tyres are Yokohama ADVAN Fleva® V701 300 tread rating, also on 20 inch rims, not much sidewall. I was only 3.27 seconds off my best time in the Z. Just not enough tire.

Barber, it really came down into learning how to drive a turbo car. Had a buddy who was there and he said all he used was 3rd and 4th. So the last two sessions I did that, it was different, but trying to get the turbo going vs the Z and it's toque.

All and All it was a fun couple of events...
