You got a ways to go my friend. But I like your ambition! Looking at your vids, probably 10-15 seconds. Don't be discouraged though, your car runs good.

He will probably show to some of the USCA events. We will be at Laguna Seca. Assuming a lot of the big dogs will be there.




That was definitely a tongue in cheek comment by me.

I've got a long way to go. I'm currently 8-10 seconds behind well driven well balanced 'street' cars on 'street' tires in other run groups ('06 Z06 and Porsche GT3 on Nitto invos, S2000 on ZII's, etc), and 10-15-20 seconds behind those driven on R compound tires or true slicks (spec miatas, 06 Z06 on R6's, my instructors LS7 BMW, well sorted V8 miata with aero, well sorted viper ACR-X). To close that gap, I need driver improvement.

The only serious part was my willingness to line it up on the same track on the same day and see how it goes. Nothin like a baseline to work from!
