Nice vid and nice pace! Defo some time left on the table on that lap, but you know it

Dont know if you saw my previous post regarding oil so i will repeat it:

If you run w30 oil you will defo over heat and also very likely grenade the motor! This is not a question of if but only of when. This viscosity is not even authorized for a regular SS for track duty! Given you have aero and sticky tires you must run 15w50 otherwise you will run into OIL PICK UP issues due to increased G forces. Higher viscosity oil will also cool the motor much better. This is per Big Al btw.

Have fun and play safe! Cheers!

Tires were absolutely done that session. Fronts were corded down to the belt when I came in, but it's always fun chasing your friends around the track.

Yeah, I'm going to switch out to 15W50 next track day.

Also, backs up my statement of the only thing I've heard overheating was the A10 but only under very heavy loads. 1LE would need a little extra there.
