Did track event at autoclub speedway ran a 1:56 flat ... still working on braking and corner exists to improve time - first time timing myself on track, 5th track weekend so far with the car, I did reach my goal of getting the car over 155 with a top speed of 158 into turn 1 & 2 and hanging on throughout that corner with an exit speed of 140 into the straight for turn 3 was super fun time

Finally had the balls to run with VSC turned off and boy throttle steering is amazing - turns 5 & 6 and the playground were just so fun to throttle steer through with slicks
Where was my invite!?

I run nasa socal every month … well at least when we are scheduled … I will be at Buttonwillow in Oct come have some fun so far I have been the only Supra that I see more than once but I usually see quite a few on a weekend between Saturday and Sunday and try to talk with them all but they are all in HPDE 1 so I really haven’t had a chance to drive fast with another Supra yet

Sick dude!

I was there last weekend. My best time was 1:56.9, 160 through turn 1 and 135 exiting 2. ? Pretty fun track

I wrestled with traction control cutting the power hard in turns 4 and 6 but it was my first track day so I wanted to understand the limits and where it kicked in before I start turning things off haha

Depends on when in Oct. I have a race the 15-16th. I will also be in Fontana this weekend doing auto-x if you want to swing by. You ever make it out to Street of Willow?

I have not yet run streets but have been on big willow a few times now, Buttonwillow event in Oct is the 8/9th. sadly I can only afford to go to the track once month :thumbsdown: ... Also prepping the car now to put in a full cage and upgrade the suspension goodies so I won't be on track again for a bit

Nice dude, when I started out I was doing about 2:05s on Saturday and then Sunday I was able to get my time down to consistent 1:56/1:57's I really needed to practice braking at the tip though I brake really early since I am afraid to go in late there and losing a lot of time... same thing in turn 3

I was leaving my traction control on for the past few months at the track, mostly because I went off once at willow springs going down turn 4 into the right and wanted some nannies because I was scared as shit I was going to do something wrong and wreck the car

It took me about 4 months of going 2 days a month before I was comfortable with just turning it completely off but I am just a noob that just starting racing

I feel that! Turn 3 is so hard to get the entry right. The hardest part for me is getting the car settled after the hard braking because the rear moves around so much since i have absolutely no downforce back there lol. I went wide on 3 twice after my 130+ exits of turn 2, but managed to reign it in at least once for my PB. Lol

Got rid of the most god-awful banshee shrill from a stone that bounced somewhere into one if the brakes. Jesus it was terrible.

I've had this happen to me twice now with the Supra. It's such a horrible sound and equally as embarrassing when it happens in public.
