First event with the Camaro, first event since August of 2019 when i got rid of my M3 ZCP. Track was in pretty rough shape, dirt and dust in the chicane and keyhole; it may have been the first event of the year for Mid Ohio too, but I'm not sure. Pretty hot and humid, upper 80s, track was greasy in the afternoons so I didnt bother with the happy hours. There was pretty good turn-out of Camaros, one on Hoosiers and then the gentleman above with the tuned SS (i couldnt keep up with you on the back straight).
Given the conditions, I'm OK with a :39 but thought it would be easier to break into the 30s. Traffic hurt a few flyer laps giving way to faster GT3RSs, etc. First time on the SC3s and Raybestos, both of which are good and worked pretty well together. I'm interested to see how the car will do with RE71Rs tho as I thought the Goodyears were sensitive to pressure variations and got greasy. Hoping for a sub :38 next time out..
Video is on YouTube but there's no overlay yet as HLT wont export with Andriod 10 yet. Once i have that i will reupload the video (need a better camera mount too).

Congrats! You are just a few tenths away from the best lap there by Provoste on RE71Rs square. So, considering a green track and your first day ever in the car, thats a great result! BTW G3 prefer lower hot pressures: about 35psi - 36 max.
What is your alignment specs? And what drive mode did ya run?
Ps ive tried RE71Rs square (295) and they were no faster for me vs stockers. Top shelf tires for certain, but personally i see no reason to pay more. Looking fwd to the vid.
