Good job man! I'm trying to wrap my head around the fact that you were 7 seconds faster than me Sure, it was my first track day in the S2000, and first time driving at Laguna Seca, stock AP2, but still... that's crazy. Awesome job.
Edit: Forgot to mention I was #38. In that link, you passed me after the corkscrew around 8:00-9:00. I don't know why I looked so slow, it didn't feel that slow in my car!

Ah coo thank you but what's more impressive is that Andrew was also in a stock Sebring silver S and he was in the 1:48's I think.

Btw thanks for the point by

Hello fellas, I went to the event to check it out as a spectator (by that red bull building) and after hearing the sound of the cars zooming by I was sold, although it looks a bit intimidating. What are the requirements to sign up? I have a nearly stock ap1 with the exception of an Intake and exhaust. Is there a separate time for beginners/ first timers? Thanks in advance!

Three words. The Zanardi Line.

No Zanardi line for me this time. Although I did manage to put two wheels off a couple times on the T10 exit and once at T7 exit. Off at T7 exit is way more sketchy than the Zanardi line!

I am always amazed watching the video of my quickest lap of the day seeing where I lost some time. I think high 1:47 is definitely possible with my current setup. I know there was a S2K challenge Stock Class car that did a high 1:46 but I believe he was using a square setup with stock suspension.

I think that day was probably the most fun I have had at the track. Lots of fun mini battles, and I finally figured out how to deal with the turn 9 entry correctly.

Man, at 1:53 I'm way behind the pace, considering I have suspension. I need to study the lines better, I think. Matching tires would be nice, of course. Oh, and I should try growing a pair!

I had an absolute blast, though. My favorite track day yet, and getting more confident with a little slip angle here and there.

Don't feel bad, my best that day was 1:54X. But yea, it was a really fun day. Once I feel more confident with the car I'll start pushing harder. I'm in no hurry, as long as I'm having fun!
