Fast lap of the day was 1:50.82. Not bad considering I only used 4th gear except for the back straight.

Ran the Pro Course at Mid Ohio today for the first time -- same configuration as the club course but no chicane. The Pro course is more fun, adding a third fast straight with a tight corner. Ran a 1:38.4 -- 3 seconds faster than the club config:

The Red Mustang is the ex Vorshlag car that a friend of mine bought -- his tires were going off, but it's wicked quick with 335/345 rubber ???

Very cool video, but I have to ask. What is the guy you passed down the back straight driving? Looks like he's just out for a Sunday drive in some 70's American sedan, arm out the window and all.

Yea, That car runs with Lemons.

Ran a new PB at Grattan yesterday 1:28.73 on Contis.

My buddy was there Friday. Multimatic were testing the GT350R, running consistent 1:25's. Apparently there was also a prototype GT there, but he didn't see it on track.....

3-4 seconds off the Continental GT 350s is pretty quick. Great driving

I finally made it back to MSR Cresson and was able to run the 3.1 again. Only my second outing with this configuration, very technical course for sure. I made some big improvements, but I have a long ways to go to really do the car justice. Practice, practice, practice they say; I can't wait for another opportunity.

I apologize for the shaky video. I've identified the problem so hopefully future videos will be improved.

Love that place. The 3.1 is epic. The combination of the tight, twisty and hilly 1.3 and much more open 1.7 is fantastic. Its so hard to get a "clean" lap with so many turns and with their variety.

3.1 is too long to get a lot of laps in a session, but if you get a chance to do the 1.3 it has been a tremendous help for me. I ran the 1.3 with APEX earlier this month and got in bout 75 laps in a single day. With the quick repeat cycle, you can get a good rhythm going.

Great first time out at NJMP Thunder circuit today.

Best lap was 1:34.7 but I had some great sessions with a few other cars/drivers of very similar pace. Made for a very fun day!! Same car setup as my post yesterday regarding NJMP Lightning circuit

I've considered the 1.3 just to get more laps on the most technical part of the course. Thank for the advice.
