Granted, I'm still a novice/intermediate driver. This was my fourth HPDE event and my first time at Thunderbolt, so I know there is more time to be gained as I improve and get to know the corners better.
So I bet the ZLE in factory form with just upgraded brake fluid can be in that 1:30-1:32 range if not under 1:30 with a more experienced, quicker driver.

I've had a good look at your vids. You and I will be in the 1:30-1:32 range by simply going flat out from 10-12 and also not touching the brakes heading into turn 6.
If you can run 1:33-1:35 consistently with clean lines and without missing wave-bys then you should be in Advanced group. You're definitely not a novice anymore. Times are only a part of the puzzle. There are guys running 1:38s in Miatas, etc. in Advanced Group so times aren't everything.
