Yes, easy is probably the wrong word to use lol. this is my 3rd or 4th visit to ACS and my best so far was 2:08. I think the 2 main areas of improvement i have are breaking later, and getting on the gas faster out of the turns. I keep VCS on though because one time i didn't and i hit that gas too early and spun. kind of nervous now to take it off.

I take the bank at about 110mph, what do you usually take that at?

Not a bad time at all, you have the FI TT kit though right? That much power on tap can make the car really tail happy lol

Coming into the bank i was probably somewhere between 135 and 141 mph. By the time i dropped down to the apex I'm still above 100mph, not sure exactly how much but after i hit that apex im back on the gas close to WOT.

I don't have the FI TT kit. I just have Stillen G3 CAI, FI CBE and an Ecutek tune. Getting down to the nitty gritty, I have stock rotors and pads (sport package) , motul Dot 4 brake fluid, Redine Dif fluid, and Bridgestone Potenza S-04 Pole Position.

At the end of the bleachers just into the bank im right at about 131

Sorry had your car confused with HotRodz lol. Even so thats still very respectable given your mods, i was probably hitting speeds closer to yours my 1st time i ran ACS. I know my nismo aero helps quite a bit especially at a track like ACS, so that's a decent advantage for me

Ya 2 thing i have a small disadvantage in:

1: Roadster (top up) = 150lbs+ extra weight
2: always have a passenger = 200 more lbs

so how much of a difference do you think each of those disadvantages add in time with all else remaining constant

totally throwing random numbers out but maybe .3 with 150 lbs and .5 with another passenger? .8 seconds total? more?

That additional weight could easily be a couple seconds right there. Also because it's a roadster you're missing a little bit of chassis rigidity that the hard top versions have and will probably experience some flexing of the chassis on the tighter/harder corners which i could see translating into some funky behavior when the car is transferring weight laterally.

I've never driven with a passenger during a hot lap so it's hard for me to say how bad it might affect my time.

I don't look but somewhere around 140. It is really the area that is 90% of the time of your lap. Just look at the map. Not sure on your setup, but on OEM suspension, you really wont be able to go much over 125/130 anyway because the compression in the 20 degree banked corner will easily compress the oem suspension to bump stop.

For having done it 3 times, 2.08 is not a bad time by any standard especially ina roadster. You going to chuckwalla by chance this month? I will be out there both days, can ride along with you if you go.

Can't make it out this month to chuckwalla. But I would like to do another track day very soon. Next time we are at the same track I'd be down to ride with you. I always like to see what limits different z set ups can do
