A few new posts... Some good baseline times finally getting laid down with the help of the AIM Solo DL setup this season.

Thill: 2.09.076. Glad I was able to compare times to the TT times and was toe to toe with some instructor friends of mine in a stripped e36m3 among others which a ton more track time than I have. Slowly getting the seat time to get some decent times... Now I gotta practice my passing and start from the back of the pack and work my way through traffic.

Laguna: 1.51.413. First time at Laguna with CRFA. I still have a lot to learn about the line out here. I know there's easily another 3 seconds I could probably make up from my first day out there. I could think of 3 corners where I left a TON of time out on the track every time...

Tires are toast now and picking up a new set before June 16/17 with NASA at Infineon and CFRA at Laguna. Gonna be biting the bullet and going SRF with my fluid too.
That's a good time for Thunderhill but you're leaving a lot of room at the exits of 1, 9, and 15 in particular.

By the way, what do you have on your car?

Pretty modest setup... Haven't gone full retard yet.

PFC DD rotors front/Centric blanks rear
PFC 01 pads
ate fluid
GC sways
MCS suspension (my splurge)
AS ssk
Mason clutch pedal
OEM 18's wrapped in toasted Conti slicks (they were really on the way off that day, so the event was more focused on car control and smooth inputs)
Stock seats with CG Lock
Rear seats removed

I haven't returned to Thill in over 3 years so it was kinda relearning the track all over again. The first few sessions were all sorts of a mess, but finally was able to string together a few good laps the last sessions. It's pretty awesome when you have the predictive lap time on the AIM unit telling you you're trimming a half sec every lap you lay down!! lol... good times.
