Went to Speed District's Buttonwillow 13CW day yesterday. It was a great day out there! Thanks Josh!! The weather is finally starting to mellow out.

I have two times to report--my standard Euro-MDM on, and now as I have begun practicing with DSC-off, I'm listing my DSC-off times as well when there's something interesting to report.

It's worth noting that these two laps were run on different tire sets. I had fresh tires with Euro-MDM-on in the morning, and I switched to 4 day-old tires when running DSC-off at 4PM. Aside from continuing to be more comfortable with DSC-off, DSC-off times should continue to improve simply with better tires and running with it off earlier in the day.
