My 2:05.4 lap, next time will definitely be faster. This was with 40PSI rear tire pressure and after this I dropped it
down to 37 which I think was a tad bit on the low side so maybe 38 would be good. what a super fun busy day

Good videos! My cable modem is on fire. My best were 2:17 laps. Tons of room to improve! Still getting the hang of the track. Hopefully will have time to get the video up soon.

2:02.3 from my Pbox, BC coilover lol. Car was really unstable at high speed, having right rear toe issue, right rear tire made loud noise while turning left, can even hear it from the video, gonna check alignment later.
Nice driving! What kind of lap times were you turning in that car? What kind of suspension? I think all it needs is a bit aero and it will be faster than the S2K

Good to see that a lot of the S2000 drivers are downshifting into second gear at turn 11. I started off doing the same but then decided against it after my spin. Guess my first instinct was correct. Too bad I didn't have an on-board camera during that session. It would have been nice to analyze the video so I could figure out what I did wrong.

The fronts were 39. I think I could leave the fronts at 39 and drop the rears to 38 maybe? 37 just felt too low and who knows if my gauge is accurate, it is repeatable but might not be accurate.
