New PB at Sebring for me. Love this car.
I've working at getting a sub 2:30 lap at sebring for several years. Finally did it. Not just barely either. I was giving the PR guy at Sebring his first ride at speed around the track he works at.
Car is factory stock. Front brake pads PowerStop track day pad. Here's the full session.

Way to go!
Amazingly capable car, isn’t it? A friend drove my car there in May and in Track/Sport 1 ran a 2:28 his 1st time ever driving the car. I’m pushing for a 2:30, myself. Be there 2/9 to start this year’s quest! Nice job!

Congrats! Funny, I had a 15 Mustang GTPP and now have a 17 Camaro SS and have run both at Roebling Road Raceway.

What tires was the 2:26 on?
How do you like the brake pads? |

Tires were stock Goodyear SC3's. I don't think I'll get those pads again. They worked ok but didn't last. They separated off of the backing plate after the last event.

Incredible! I had been wowrking on sub 230, ran a 234 in my E90, 233 in my E46 TT car, and a 228 in my C6 z06. I am in the market for a 1LE right now and can't wait to get down to Sebring.

The stock pads are all you need and are fantastic.
