Default 350Z Laguna Seca 4/13, 370Z Thunderhill 4/11

A 1/2 session with me at Laguna Seca in my 03' Enthusiast on 275/40/17 Hoosier R5s, a few bolt-ons, and Tein Flex (shameless plug - they're for sale here: https://my350z.com/forum/norcal-mark...with-edfc.html)

Laguna Seca Monday, 13 April (point-by mandatory):



Save some headache - skip to the 3:00 mark:

Out of all 5 sessions, this was actually the only one that they started us off crowded like this. The second half of the session, which we're uploading now, it was open running. The local NASA HPDE group has "loose" rules, so I don't run with them. This was my first time with this group (NCRC), and they ran a smooth event.

It seems a few laps were in the 1:47.xx range, but most were closer to 1:50. We made a few changes this week, including a NISMO LSD and Koni True Choice Coilovers. Also on the install list are adjustable F/R control arms so we can dial in the suspension with the Hoosiers and get a bit more grip. We'll see how the car control and grip are once I get back out there.
