Fun Times at Pocono MEGA

https://youtube.com/shorts/SY5nwOgsFoY?feature=share



Had a blast and got to hang out with Bobby with a 5th Gen ZL1. I managed a 2:08.1 on the day. Lots of traffic on the clean laps but fun overall. The Michelin PS4S continue to make liars out of folks that say they suck for track. hahahahahaha These should be good for 2:04-2:05 minute laps as I know where I can make more time easily for when I go back. There was a full fledged NASCAR out there that ran a 1:58 so that was the benchmark on the day.

Ignore my giggling in the video. I was trying to ditch Bobby in the 5th Gen and he was hanging right in there. hahahahaha I'll have a couple more videos and pics later. Also Bobby got some video of me from his car. When he posts that you'll get to see his perspective of this session that I posted.

Have you tried anything other than the PS4S to see your lap times. Before claiming to make a liar out of anyone that uses an actual track tire.....at the track lol

I'll be switching to the OEM Supercar 3R next month for the hotter months. I'm sure I'll go faster. Either way, my times are respectable on the PS4S and at the faster end of participants. I'm sure I could survive on these in the Expert group. My comment was made tongue-in-cheek though. Taking into account the mileage and ability to get it crackin', the PS4S are the best bang for the buck. This was my third track day on them and they have 9,000 miles total with hard street riding. They look like they could squeeze out another 1.5 track days too.

They definitely don't suck. Anybody who says so is "straight cappin' son"! hahaha

HAHAHA fair enough! How many miles/track days are you getting out of the OEMs? I have taken one set to the track and they did well, looks like i still have a couple left, i also have an OEM set for driving in the summer months....I'd assume that street driving they will last longer than track driving....the OEMs at least.

My car came with PS4S so I haven't tried OEMs yet. When I throw them on I'm going to head back to NJMP Lightning where I hope to be within 5 seconds of the lap record. From what I've been reading I'm not optimistic that those will endure too much abuse tho. ....and you can't really push them on the street because they take a lot of heat. I think I'm going to buy spare wheels and just keep the OEMs on for Warm/Hot weather track days.

Write back when you get the 3R's on the car. I have a feeling you'll wish you never posted about the PS4S's��

"Ignore my giggling in the video" = I hope someone is making an audio remix that's nothing but giggling.


Oh and looks like a lot of fun, I'd probably giggling my ass off too.

NG329 what were you using to record, and how did you pull the data onto your phone? What's your setup in other words.

For now I use the Trackaddict app and it gathers data from GPS and the HP Tuners ODBII connector. The editing is done with Race Render 3, and I use the Dash Ware app to merge the GoPro videos that the camera breaks up while recording longer session.

It's not perfect but it gets the job done on the cheap for now.
