    Great day today, crazy hot but getting back in the groove. Still trying to re-hydrate.

    Best time was a 1:31

    Here's some track side photos.

    There's very few interior shots in the thread and I can never find one when I want one so Jodie packed the 8mm fish eye lens today to grab a few shots.

    Cheers, I think there's more in it yet.

    A better driver would be much faster I think.

    I'm still not pushing hard enough at times and am still learning this new gearbox.

    I know the car can go faster into turn 1 but I just cant seem to settle the car right to feel comfortable entering above 160km/h.

    I'm in 4th through southern loop and well into 5th coming into Honda which is the biggest braking event on PI for me.

    Yep, I was thinking of revisiting that soon, especially the rear setup.

    I'm actually in the US right now, I'll have to dig around for the specs when I get back or just go and get the alignment rechecked so I can figure what shims I need for the rear.

    Cheers

    My luggage is already pretty full. Next stop is Eurospec if you've got any questions for them.
