Update:

I attended my first track event of the year this past weekend. It was at NJMP on the Lightning track. This was my second event and my first time on this track. After I learned the line, I really enjoyed this track.

The car performed flawlessly, and inspires confidence... however I still need to get comfortable pushing the car to the limits. I was short shifting and partial throttling in areas where I could be flat out. With more seat time I should be pushing the car harder.

I triggered the green and orange temp paint, but not the pink so rotor temps were somewhere between 560C and 610C. I did not experience any fade or braking issues what-so-ever.

I used the Performance Box on the last session of the weekend and my best lap time was a 1:25.33. The performance box also displays split times and uses all your best splits to determine your "ideal lap" which was a 1:24.85. The data shown below displays speed, cornering G's and lap time difference of my fastest 4 laps.

Video of one random clean lap. I will be uploading more videos this week. I am also going to try out the TrackVision software to overlay my Performance Box data onto the video.

I signed up for another event at NJMP (Thunderbolt track) on July 1st. The event is organized by “Track Daze”. If anyone else (Brian…) wants to join there is space left and it is on the cheaper side for a track day.
