Dude, you have no idea what its like from the passenger seat. I swore we were going to fly off the track at least a half dozen times. You understeer just a little cause your going in hot but then like magic the car hooks and your back on the throttle.

You should of seen your face down the back stretch, we came around that last turn before and you were poised. Banging through the gears and the 3 pylons at end signaling "turn now before wall" you keep on it. 150m to go, 150km/h and climbing, 125m to go...you mention "170km/h" then slam on the brakes with a near 4 wheel drift around the fast right hand. Holy hell that as a rush, and that was only the back stretch. The rest of the course was pretty quick with those two front tires begging for forgiveness and you just stomp on the pedal and keep right on going.
Last turn I'll give you a break, you cut in just alittle to early for the line else you would of been flawless the entire track. I don't know what lines the vette took but hope you learned some hints with him.

Tires - hooked up but R compounds will definitely help. What you go now were hot after the run but you can smell they had a challenge keeping up.
Sways - Not alot of roll like you said, I didn't get a chance to ride previous but you definitely could be confident the car will hold its own
Exhaust - oooh what a sexy exhaust note you got now, you should listen to your car drive away as your honking it *drool*
Overall, the car pulls like mad through first and second and handles great. You were tossing me around like crazy lol, I'm to skinny for the semi-bolstered seats. Keep it up, your doing better.

How about Saturday mid day what would the price be around if i just wanna take a spin around the course no lapping you can only go on pay per lap days. And it's always 1 lap at a time. weekends are usually booked by events. Those are usually a day thing at 150-200$. I would not pay that much to run. Pay per lap is 5 laps for 20$ and first lap is free :)
