And I'd bet that your fronts chunked because your car was pushing, and you dialed in even more steering angle as it was pushing (a logical thing to do, but it's incorrect!). If you smooth it out, you'll find more time on the table--even with a staggered setup.


Guilty as charged, I will be honest I did a pretty crappy job following a good line and I don't know the track at all. I've been on it twice before in my life in like 2003/2004.

I will take the advice and keep wheels, just grab tires and work on becoming smoother and not a late braking butcher


point-and-shoot tracks like shannonville, late braking costs more time than you'd think.

don't recall exactly. been over 5 years. i THINK i have the lap sheets buried amongst my other notes in one of the binders somewhere, see if i can find the notes.

didn't have an in dash lap timer back then. so it was all by external help.

edit: if you ran 2:04, pretty damn sure u're faster than I. don't think i got south of the 5 mark. back then only 2 or 3 guys ran 1.59 or 2 flat; then there was a pack stuck in the 5s & 6s, and the rest are basically all over the place. Now i'm hearing it's pretty routine to be in the 2.01s or 2.02s. So basically in 6-7 years the average field picked up almost 3 seconds.

^Really fast guys are doing sub 2's in time attacks these days

Corey Whiteman, who pilots an e36 325 did 1:57 this year. Not sure what the change was, but he was still sub 2:00 last year on street tires (rivals) and stock power. Pure skill!

Another guy did 1:58 or something in his FD RX7 with a broken 3rd gear at shannonville (!!!). Beat out the china guy in the 458 scuderra on hoosiers. that guy was very displeased haha
