I had to easily be doing 140 mph plus before entering into turn one. My new brake pads were fricken awesome. Could not believe how well the car was stopping. 1st session I did 5 laps. Car was weaving side to side down the straight due to a bad alignment. I wasn't paying attention when dude aligned my car and the toe was set at -1/32. Scored some toe plates and fixed the toe. Second session car was much better but tire temps raised air pressures to high and I was a bit loose. Third session was much better but I had to chase the track temps as the asphalt temp kept going up so I chased air pressure all day. 4th session was fun as hell. My fricken GoPro was set on pictures so I never got vid which totally pissed me off. I was so stoked to get home and load vid. Had some exciting side by side passing in turns and on peoples tails at the same time. Man am I pissed I screwed that up. The whole day was about tuning the car and fifth session I adjusted shocks again but when I got in and felt my steering wheel it was wobbly as hell. Somehow I managed to tear one of the holes in the steering wheel where it mounts to the hub. Wasn't going to chance it so I called it a day. My best time of the day was a 2:07.4. Sorry no vids guys, I'm super disappointed about that but I promise not to screw it up next time.
Still not done tuning car so I will most likely be going back next month.
