Track day at Grattan raceway
My first ever track event. Took some videos on day 2, including this great one with some Lotus Elises. Car performed like a champ, although next time I do it I'll go a click stiffer on at least rebound on the KW V3s, max out the Dinan sways and definitely put on some better pads. The stock pads did better than I expected, but it stopped me from really bombing the straightaways, which is where this thing makes up for the slower turns. Not a problem in this video on the main straightaway, though, as I caught up to the Elise too quickly and had to let up on the throttle (was purposely staying behind the red one). I also in general had to go easy at the jump before turn 5 and turn 11, which has a dip, as otherwise I was blastin' the bumpstops and unsettling the car.
So much fun! Would also like to find a position that doesn't reflect the darn center speaker.

RBF600 and it held up well, though it probably helped that I couldn't stress it as much with the OEM pads limiting me.

Care to share what your tire pressures looked like over the course of the day? |

I started with 30psi going into my first session of the day and after each session immediately measured and brought them down to 35, assuming they were over (which they usually were).

Found out there was a photographer taking pictures. Was a good one of me as I went up to the "jump".
