Default Forged Performance: New personal best at VIR TTU 1:58.9 Video

Had another great weekend of NASA TT, this time at VIR. Met a lot of familiar faces and many new ones. I set a new personal best of 1:58.9 on full course. Enjoy the vid!

Yes Hoosier A6's 295/315. Jay brought his GT-R instead of the 370Z, since we were hosting a GT-R event on Monday at VIR as well.

We are installing a 4.xxx gear in the diff, installing a diff cooler, and our new twin pass radiator/oil cooler system, so it will be 2 weeks until we are on track to test the 370Z again.

We keep vascilating between going FI, or maxing it out NA.

Going 4.3 FD? Impressive times......I say max out the car with simple bolt-ons tune.....then see where you stand. Then again that's just me. Either way it will be an exciting machine to see go.

Congrats Sharif! That looks like so much fun - so sorry I missed it.


http://www.fastestlaps.com/index.php...e&filter4=true has fastest lap times and no one is close - not sure if these are for a longer course?

Thanks Raj! It started raining for an hour after lunch, and although the storm passed in an hour, the track never really dried out. So you didn't miss that much.

Raj, Fastestlaps has times for the rarely used "Grand Course". I wish they would have used Full Course which is the racing standard.
