Let us know how many laps it takes to keep the throttle pinned over the crest of T1...... assuming you have enough motor to make it interesting.

These 2016 tires gotta be better than the previous 2013's.

Pretty hard to not have fun with the epic combo of Rich Bermea and Laguna Seca.

Lots of pinning!


The well known corkscrew



Shot of the diffuser I put on before this day but had to take off mid day as I noticed the exhaust was melting a corner of it

Turned on all the right buttons this time and we have actual video.

Yes, my shifting in this thing needs work. Geez...

Pretty satisfied with my first time out at Laguna. And that no major carnage or issues came about. A second day would've been great, and/or a group without beginners. This was a rare clean lap.

See what happens when you make a list...or when your jackass friends make one for you? You suck less, which is practically the same as success!

Great pictures and video, I bet it’s fun to look back and watch what you were actually doing...or not doing. Good learning tool.


And about the shifting, don’t worry about it. I remember my first time driving a stick.
