Holy insane... NOTHING like I've ever experienced... if you haven't done it, do it before you die. NO other racing comes even close to this...

Definitely. I think the morning while it was still raining, it was a HUGE reason I was so stable and fast. In the morning, noone could even get close to me.

Throughout the entire day, the only car that ever passed me, was a Factory Sponsored Rousch Stage 3 Mustang. One session, later in the day in the dry, I lapped 4 cars. That's pretty awesome, considering the sessions are only 20 minutes on a 4 mile roadcourse!

I went through an ENTIRE SET of Porterfield pads.

Here's a quick video...

Hard Braking, Turn 5, then up the hill!

Do you have a tune for race gas or did you just use it for insurance purpose?
