Looks like a lot of fun. What do you think was going through the Miata driver's mind when you rolled up on him that fast? Had you passed him in an earlier lap?

You definitely rolled down on him at the end of the straight. What areo package do you have. Cup 2 tires?

No ground effects (stage 1)
Pilot Super Sports
Stock alignment not track setup
Still pulls crazy Gs on turns
Data shows 1.3 to 1.6 peaks every turn (well ones i get right lol)

Had fun with race prepped mustang and 2015 Z/28 playing on the track

Nice. I am feeling better and better about not ordering the Z07 ore an areo package. You were driving above my ability and it looked planted.

Any video of those matchups you want to share?

i havent roasted the brakes yet but i do hit a lot of traffic where im going slow and barely use the brakes but would like the ceramic..
also im thinking of getting 19" rims front and back and running Pirelli Trofeo R 295/30R19 front 325/30R19
have to see about the different heights though.. adj car height.. and tune in tire sizes

Did you use the stock rims and change to the Pilot Super Sports?

What about your brake pads and fluid?

Looks like you track it a ton. Any of the overheating issues that's been discussed?
