Very nice run Trekkor. It's amazing how much you can learn about your driving by watching video. I'm glad I finally put a camera in my car.

Nice run, I bet there is 2 plus seconds with some gear ratio changes. Not sure if this is your street car or DE/race only. It is true what BRad says about backing the APEX up, this allows for a longer run down the striaght away following the turn. I would say, real good. Nice and smooth. Erik |

Trek,
When I visit a track in a new car (or my first time).. I start late on the "scary" corners and then start backing up the apexes each lap around until I run out of "track out" and just about hang a tire off. Not all corners will be late and not all corners will be early, but if you learn to approach corners early and late.. you will learn quickly how to pass people on different lines but maintain your speed.

Hmmm. I see.
I had a little more room to track out in every corner except maybe : 3a, 4 and 11. I've hit each turn to the absolute limit for me many times. It's nailing them all in one lap. "The perfect lap"... KT |

QUOTE I bet there is 2 plus seconds with some gear ratio changes. Not sure if this is your street car or DE/race only. Mainly DE and a/x. It's still street legal and insured but that may change over the winter. I'm running the MSX gear set and I like that quite a bit. KT |

forgive my ignorance, but which one is "carousel" is it the one before the "thumbs up" ? It's turn 6, the 180-degree on-camber left-hander that drops you about 4 stories.
