My F80 gets 4 days or 16 sessions on the front RE71R and double that on the rears. I do flip both on the rim half way through. And I run them to the cords

NJMP Thunderbolt @1:37.4 with easy 1:36's in there. Very likely a high 35 if I just grow some balls.

Thats pretty damn fast for a car with stock seats! Next time you go to Tbolt, try carrying more speed through 4 by using all the trackout. Dont worry so much about getting back right for turn 5. You'll still be able to take 5 just as fast but you'll get back to throttle sooner out of 4.
1010ths HPDE at NCM Motorsports Park... No records here but a fun session reeling in a Porsche 997 4S. It was blazing hot yesterday!

Wasn't able to get on Tbolt again, but hit up Lightning yesterday. Ran a tenth faster than last year on the same Rivals from last year, so I'll take it as a success. Couldn't go faster after the first session even after trying new things (fixing my line in the lightbulb) so I think my Rivals are HC'd out. Liking my new camera mount even though my stock seats vibrate a lot; I can see the track and my line so much better!

Just finished an HPDE event at Road America with my car set to about 620whp. Best lap I had on video was 2:39. I was braking early because I didn't trust my brakes.

Did not get my goal of 36's at Thunderbolt today. Liking the new steering wheel and shift knob though. Camera mount worked well too.
Edit: looked at the data and didn't do T1, T6 and T7 as well as I should have yesterday. I'm sure I fixed it on other laps but underdrove in other areas too.

Broke 19's with a 1:17.8 at the SCCA TT at NJMP Lightning. Very slow compared to other T4 drivers but I'm happy with my time.
A lap from SCCA Time Trials at Road Atlanta in my T3 E36 M3. I had a camera issue and my fastest couple of laps weren't recorded but here is a decent one. My best time was a 1:41.107, the video time was a 1:41.621. Feedback welcome.

Here is a short video of the last testing we did before covid messed things up. We were not running at full power as the motor was still brand new. Hope you enjoy the short video
