I'm trying to get more track time this year.

I didn't get much last year.

Everytime it seems like I was planning a trackday. The wife want to travel some place with the motorhome on that weekend.

And it was no where near a track.

my third ever track day, super slow, best I could do was 1:53 with 1:50 as best split

second time at Laguna Seca

I cooked my rotors and also got fuel starve after turn 4...even with 60% dots on the fuel :/, I'm just glad this was a counterclockwise track

Very nice I hope you guys had a blast out there. Get in as many track days as you can. Practice makes perfect!

I lean in my seat. Took a while to break myself of that habit.

What I hate is these little 4 bangers with big turbos making about 500 Hp. They will pass you on the straights, only to get outbraked into a turn. Then they slow everyone up in the turns.

I leave these guys go by and give them some distance. Then run them down in the turns.

What track is that, it looks like it's pretty rough. I never bounced like that on NJMP tracks. That problem is typical of HDPE, just have to have a friendly conversation with the drivers after the first run. I usually have that problem though with the camaros, mustangs, and hemi's. They blow by me on the front straight and after the 2nd or 3rd turn I'm back on their butts.

Ever wondered what it like being on track with a Le Mans Prototype? Wait for the end. You'll see an LS powered Ginetta LMP3 pass me like i'm standing still.

Rusty · 04-27-2018, 09:51 PM

I know that feeling of being passed. Had my ear drums blown out from the left side of my head to though the right side by a GT40 follow by a NACRAPER.

Last track day of the season.
very cold day(+2c)
very new to the track scene.
any input would be appreciated

MrPostman · 10-24-2018, 12:27 PM

Rusty you seem to fit in your car very well with your helmet, my helmet is touching the head liner with the seat all the way down and with me scrunched down in the seat. Makes me wish I was shorter.

DarkJak · 10-24-2018, 03:17 PM

My last track day of the year in my Z.

Latest mod was the OS Giken LSD. It was a half year wait getting one for the 7AT!
But damn was the wait worthwhile. I ran faster times with the LSD and PS4S's than with the VLSD and Nexen SUR4Gs.
The PS4S's were getting too hot and losing grip, even with the cold day.

My experience with the PSS's. Is that they work well for about 20 minutes or until you overheat them. Then they get greasy. Then the real fun begins.

Haven't had to much of a chase to see what the PS4S's will do.
