Incredible lap, congratulations!

I am still trying to comprehend the capability of these cars. It is simply ridiculous.

This day the temp ranged from 35-55 degrees, so I didn't see anything and I've only tracked mine in the winter so far. From coaching in others and driving theirs I can honestly say I haven't seen a difference. It runs like a champ and feels like the same power no matter what ambient temp or how many sessions (even consecutive) that are done. The OEM street tires do get slick after about 15 mins of circuit driving and the times disappear. So they seem to be a weakpoint for longer (or consecutive) stints.

Serious question because I saw some joking banter about it on FB......what is the “correct” line by that pylon that’s kinda in the middle of 2 paths? Seems like if you couldn’t cut right like you did it would cost time.

"technically" that is off track, but during a track day it is really up to the driver I suppose. During SCCA/NASA events they line the edge with barrels to prevent too much cutting. I doubt it would have changed Jeff's too much anyways.

What tires Jeff? Giving me a new goal for this upcoming season

Damn Jeff....that was a hoot to watch!

Great driving!

I've never straightened out a corner like that! Share more when you get a chance....those of us in the Midwest are still in the offseason!
