the only difference is he drives solo on the track and knows that HPDE events aren't Time Attack events, they are educational events.

Leo Gets

HPDE are Time Attack events with a NASA Instructor.
You have to complete HPDE in Advanced in order to race in the NASA Time Trial Program.

The clock isn't running. And HPDE isn't a competition, I don't know how to make it any more clear. You don't compete, you learn. I'm in the same boat, but not nearly as ignorant.

Leo Gets

To me it is a "Time Attack" not a Time Trial... though all HPDE drivers are not competing with each other; I personally am competing with the clock as I rate my improvement through lap times.

But we can keep going back and forth all you want, 10 yrs on this forum has taught me a thing or two about keeping up with e-thuging...

You say you've learned something in 10 years - I'm wondering about what, Your cars too low it's roll centers are fubar and it's possible suspension movement is little to none which is good because when your car turns moderately under compression like to catch oversteer it will do significant damage to both those fenders and tires. You could install limiters on the steering rack I guess but IDK why you'd want to.

Basically your "stanced" whip is garbage for track use.

People who confuse Time Attack with high performance drive event should be barred from entering. This kind of thinking leads to the most dangerous kinds of behavior during these events.

Yeah you can rent transponders to map your lap progress but it's designed for consistency and improvement not balls out driving in the middle of a bunch other cars that arent there for that.

You shouldn't confuse the two it's very dangerous for yourself and others to think it's the same.
