First time out this year. Was still fairly cold at 47*. But once the track surface warmed up a bit I was able to beat my old PB on my last session by .08

Nice, Colder is always faster. 40's-50's is idea for laptimes in my experience.

I would agree. I was just struggling getting enough heat into the tires. Plus, lack of confidence being first day back out.

How’d the tire blockers hold up? I haven’t had a chance to run with mine yet.

They held up great!

Slight issue with upper passenger side but it was installation error.

Did it break? I can send you another.

Buddy of mine did a 1:37.5 at Gingerman with a bolt on 1le and sticker RT660s

Also know people is sub 300hp cars going sub 40 with 200tw tires. granted they are about 1,000 lbs lighter than us. LOL

It's a hard track to get sub 40. But it can be done.

It was a first track I ever did in my own car. Some 11 years ago now. I also only did it once in my Camaro. It was the first track in this car. My PB is 1:43 I think. I have a ways to go still.

Well done guys, skill and fast car is what it takes.
