COTA looks great, I am looking to visit more tracks in the next few years. I just did a SCCA TT at La Junta Speedway, vid below... I beat the previous Prod D track record by 0.8s on a <1m track, so that's a good start to the year. There's another TT at Pueblo MSP in 2 weeks, if all goes well I hope to grab the track records at Pueblo and High Plains too.
The new dampers and aero are working really well, the car handles great. The EBC SR11 sintered brake pads are interesting. As they wear and get hot they make a lot of noise, but I think it's in conjunction with the DBA slotted rotors. You can hear it braking for the last turn.
The 335 RZs do get hot after a while, way better than the old RS but I had to run 295/35 which is a huge difference too. My track tires last year were the 345/30 Vitour P1s, they can take a bit more heat than the RZs but not by a lot.
Beeville course designer is making an input heavy course with a lot of visual noise. I'm all for creativity, but that course is a bit much.
