Best Time: 1:47.4

Car: 2004 Cobra
Tires: Hoosier R7 335 squared
Wheels: Forgeline 18x12
Suspension: Cortex/Griggs SLA, Cortex Torque Arm/Watts
Aero: Tiger Racing splitter/front clip, G Stream wing
Power: Dry Sump, Carbed LS2
Had a blast running the new (to me) car with Hooked on Driving yesterday. Fun and well org group to run with.
This is a whole lotta car. Been sitting for 5 or 6 years and Cortex knocked the cobwebs off it for me. It performed like it was supposed to. I was having trouble getting used to the trans (Jerico) and the Renagate "poor mans sequential" shifter (as you can tell, if you watch the video). Definitely not in the right gear in a few places. And I was short shifting mostly by 1000 rpm under target. So I should get quicker in it.

A fantastic day at Sonoma with my friend Dave aka @Flash68 on monday. Tried to keep up with him but he is fast in a fast car. (Dave you still need to put the 3 gorillas on your backseat so we have the same weight! 
Second full time here. ( not considering the real first time last year where i ran one session and i broke the trans

Dude, you are fast AF in that big portly slush box Mustang!
After being shutout last year, this season I was able to knock some time off my previous P.B. with a 1:24.4. Hopefully the video starts in the correct spot 13:00ish, it was the last complete hot lap of the session

In addition to the static, you might consider checking the mic picking up additional feed.
It almost sounds like you are playing the radio, but I know this can not be.

Thanks NVR!
Nice lap Steve. I see I'm not the only one that hits the wiper stalk while on track.
let's just say me and go pro ....we don't have a good relationship..........
but here's the video with my 4000lbs car
Dude, you are fast AF in that big portly slush box Mustang!
Thank you for making that VERY easy for me.
All times updated to here. Will come back for the remainder later.
Track: Laguna Seca Raceway
Time: 1:42.06
Car: 2016 GT350, Track Package
Wheels: 19x11+50, Forged, Vibe Motorsports all around
Tires: Bridgestone Potenza RE-71R, 305/30/19 all around
Suspension: Vorshlag CC plates (-2.7F, -2.1R), FP Lowering Springs
It was cold and slightly damp but the car performed like a champ! It was my second time ever at Laguna Seca not including the thousands of laps I've done in Gran Turismo growing up as a kid. I love this track so much and it was nice to finally get out there and not worry about the damn sound restrictions. I don't think I can do a 92dB day ever again. It's so much more liberating not worrying about sound.

@RaiderJatt02 nice driving!
Ran this for only the 2nd time this past Friday... Absolutely awesome track. Caught some traffic at the end... but still the best of the day / cleanest one I found.
