Finally figured out how to do a decent video overlay in Harry's Lap Timer!

First time at LRP, did a 1:07 and lots of traffic. Will be back in a month, hoping to shave off 2 seconds.

I'm told the Pro Course is the shorter of the two-- we ran the long course (Club Course?) with the chicane.

Off to Grattan this weekend.

Improved my lap time at Grattan!

Best lap this weekend was 1:39.51

If you've never been to this track, find a way to do it. Very technical, abrupt elevation changes, off camber while going up and down hill, blind high speed corners-- what else could you want?

Equalizes horsepower differences pretty well too.

Thanks! You can remove the "with chicane" parenthetical from the Grattan title. There's only one configuration.

Great driving Tony! Are you running with DSC off at Mosport? I was running 1:47/8 there two weeks ago but could really feel the power being robbed at exits with the DSC on... Track scares me...

Road America!

I was the fastest Z4 Coupe at Road America last weekend, si or M, because I was the only one, at 2:55:04.

Improved about 5 seconds from my time there two years ago.

Awesome weather for the weekend!

Also.. video from HLT:

1:34 atlanta motorsports park

1:40 road atlanta. Andrew Davies broke into 1:30s driving my car with me as passenger instructing but he's amazing! And he didn't really get any clean laps in the 20min of seat time he required to find the limits.

thanks but honestly, this car feels like it was built for that track. I was on stock suspension with camberbolts and it felt perfectly balanced. It had more to do with the car than the driver
