Thank you very much! I was definitely in the zone at the time trial and the air was nice and cold. I don't think I've ever felt my car pull that strong. The car is a Calaway SC 630 and it's an A8. As you can see in the video I always use the paddles because I prefer to run lower rpms in 4th gear through the esses and up the short hill before the back stretch rather than have the auto strung out in 3rd. Could I knock off a little more in full auto? Maybe if the conditions were just right again and maybe not because I may lose speed to

As far as Larry's submission, if you look at the same time trial link as mine, he was 5th overall. https://timetrials.growsites.net/eve...ssions/overall You could probably update Travis's G3 time from that as well as he was 4th overall and had a 1:54.339 Edit: oh yeah and RXtacy was 6th overall and had a 1:56.016 Last edited by TheRealJA105; 06-18-2019 at 11:22 PM. |

Autobahn Country Club Full:
2:44.31- Akirasoft in '18 ZL1 1LE on 6/3/19, OE Supercar 3R, OE pads, track alignment (-2.65 front, -2 rear) Had a great time at the LapsInc event at ABCC Full on the 3rd and heading back there on the 24th. Still in the beginner group as this was only my second time out. With better lines I think I can pickup another 2-3 seconds with the car just as it sits but I'd like to replace pads for safety purposes. |

I'm not sure the stock pads would make it through another day of what I was suggesting them to (as a novice I'm prone to over-braking.) Based on research I've done here many folks say the stock pads aren't bad so I might tackle my next event with fresh stock pads and I'm replacing stock fluid with Castrol SRF. |

As to safety considerations, get that stock brake fluid out and replaced (SRF is the best) ASAP before you lose the pedal and go off. EDIT: STOCK BRAKE FLUID IS COMPLETELY UNSUITABLE FOR TRACK DUTY! That's likely the culprit of what you may have felt vs pads giving up. My pace is pretty reasonable for an old guy and i have not been able to fade stock pads at any of the 6 or 7 venues ive run my 1le at thus far. As a side benefit, they are great for trail braking which is absolutely key to fast laps. Also, because they are not uber high torque, they run fairly cold and won't fry your caliper seals, heat up your F tires too fast, etc. But most importantly they have great modulation and release characteristics and they are also kind to rotors. I am not suggesting the are THE best, but they are damn good and very well matched to a stock car. Hope it helps. Cheers and continue having bags of fun! |
