I had some fun messing around on the track yesterday, the rear end if so playful when the car is stripped out. Really need to upgrade the coilovers and wheel/tyre combo!

I knew my car was a pig but it was unreal how tossable his car is. Sure he removed the carpets but the rest of his interior is still intact. At every crucial corner he is able to brake way LATER and LESS. That combination of staying on gas for another few tenths and then just slight tap or left foot brake vs braking earlier and harder easily gives him a HALF second advantage on a 1 minute road course. We both ran similarly rated tires (him on RC1s me on NT01s) so tires wasn't a factor.

Don't want to take anything away from his skills neither. I would say time split is half car half driver. I'm already max'd in my class points so only shot is for me to up my own game.

Sorry for the wind noise, forgot to turn on the external mic:

I agree. However, some guys here would be hard to convince.

I don't think it'll work with JB4 as the OBD port won't talk with anything when the JB4 is running - I've gotten weird codes when I tried this in the past. No longer run JB4 though...
