Pretty sloppy lap with poor downshifting (I know I can do 5 to 3, but I row through the gears pretty slowly which results in missing brake points) but apparently it was my fastest lap for that day with passenger...haha

This video shows that I need more front tire. 225 is not enough!! I just let off the gas a little bit to slow down, but I realized I was definitely not hitting the inside berm and quickly sliding towards the edge of the track so I let off a little more. The tires were already greasy by that session and I was bummed that I couldn't get more speed out of Riverside. I was really hoping to exit a few MPH faster than the other laps I was attempting but that obviously failed...haha Damn you driver side tires!

Did you short shift to 5th before Riverside? Maybe if you'd stayed in 4th, the extra power at the rear wheels and RPM would have helped you turn better?
Hahahaha that red STi was everywhere! Man I wish I had passed him more! Or sooner...

That's why half way through the day I flipped my RS3's and ran them in the wrong directions haha!!! It worked out great!

I wish I could flip mine, but pretty much both of my insides are bald.
Need new tires soon haha
