Definitely frustrated with the brakes on this car, even changed pads to see if it would help but it seems more like a vacuum issue between the gas pedal and brakes. The pads seemed to help isolate the issue. Still struggling to hit my marks on turnarounds and getting closer to the apex cones in general on the course. Course on Saturday was a little tight but it taught me more things on executing more efficiently... Sunday was just a blast with the throttle. Been faster or as fast as STX at Crows Landing four events in a row now... was surprised to see this on Saturday given the course. Enjoy!

Holy crap! Did Peters raw time Fraser on Saturday? Is there something not AS legal on Peters car that causes him to run CAMC?

I struggled with this also. I ended up having to go back to right foot braking. This car does not like instant brake pressure from gas to brake. It really needs a short moment from gas to brake pressure.

That is really interesting to hear because I've only right foot braked and still struggle with this big time.

From what I've experienced, only two things really work. Light touch on initial braking and / or avoiding initial application if there is the least bit of yaw. Doing either one requires more concentration than I have but Otis/Scroggs don't have an issue.

Absolutely, but I also think the course was more challenging than normal for a Crows Landing course, hence my shock in time deltas between STX and I. Sundays course was more of the norm for a Crows Landing course which probably favored the GT3.
