I burned through my Ferodo's at the last track day and I still haven't received my new set. If they get here before Friday, I should be out there. Damn stock pads suck.

2:19 with R-Compounds?!?!?!

come out to a GGLC event, you will get clear laps so you can get your lap times down.

What's GGLC?

I wish I could host the video from that last track day. It was ridiculous - there were corvettes in the intermediate group that had no business being there. They were super slow in the corners and didn't know how to give a point by (required in our run group). In the last session I got stuck behind one that would be slow in the corners and then romp the gas on the straights so I couldn't get by. I guess she couldn;t deal with getting lapped by a Subaru.

But yeah, clear track time would really help me improve. O probably need to get more aggressive on my passing too (although I was passing in 2 for the first time. )

Next track day for me is 7/29.
