Thanks I’ll try that.Looks like your having a good time! From watching the video you posted, you could probably pick up a bunch of time in T3 if you haven't already figured it out. In American Iron, basically similar mustang build as yours but with 275 Toyos, we are flat through T3 and brake up the hill for T3A. With the Hoosiers on your car you should probably be able to do the same. Last time we were there in the dry we were in the 1:48/49s so your right there.

This made me laugh out loud there’s always someone at the track that does thisQualifying for race 2:
I don’t know but they have be free winding it all damn day long for 3 days and I want to kill them. I mean really….is that nescessary?

Yes, incessantly for hours…..like, WTH are you trying to do, blow it up?What is “free winding”? Just revving the engine in the garage?
I know right? I was like...where is everybody? Just me and one other guy showed up in ITE.This reminds me of the old joke about the two campers and the bear. The campers are out in the wilderness, sunning themselves beside a stream and dangling their feet in the water. Then a bear comes out of the trees, takes a look at them and starts to run toward them snarling and snapping. They leap to their feet . One of them starts running away, but the other one just starts pulling on his shoes. The running camper yells back - "hurry up - you'll never beat him if you don't get going!". The other camper calmly replies "Naw, I'm not worried. I don't have to run faster than the bear, I just have to run faster than you".
So, while you're 13 seconds behind the GT2, you're also 13 seconds ahead of the other ITE. Good spot to be in - well done!
Okay, I'm probably not good enough to do this yet....I remembered what you said and when I headed into that turn on the first lap of the race with a 1000hp GT1 car on my bumper I thought to myself: "I probably can't pull this off and if I can I'm not testing that now". If I ever get to Sonoma again I'll give it a whirl but as for this weekend, I just chickened out. I also didn't wreck the car, so there's that.Looks like your having a good time!
