Traffic isn't usually this bad and I think a lot it has to do with who's hosting. Turn8 is still fairly new to the game so it's unfair to assume that all track days are loaded with traffic just bc this particular host.
It's great that you've got a free day with Toyota but my recommendation is...
So just wanted to recap a bit of how our track day at Thunderhill this past saturday went. Unfortunately, I ended up with no footage because I found out my smartycam SD card was full... so that's that. Good news is that the event host provides free pictures so I'll be posting those later.
My...
Just got back from the track so I'm a bit tired. I didn't get to set a pb today. Car ran great but there was just too much traffic. I'll try to see if i can upload some videos on here later. Stay tuned guys!
I'd like to say thanks again to all the peeps at Elite for getting my car ready. Gary stayed at the shop well into the night so that I could pick my car up today (1/22/2021). The car looks a bit like a panda right now with all it's off colored panels and what not but a simple wrap will fix that...
We also managed to prep my good friend's Supra for this weekend.
Guy is already ultra fast and can run circles around me but yeah sure why not. Why not take it up a couple of notches?
Full APR aero package a long with Titan 7's custom Supra spec wheels.
Finally have another track day lined up on 1/23. We'll be running Thill east in the bypass configuration.
The last time we were at thill, the car did a 2.04 on the cyclone configuration, which I think is ~ 2 seconds slower than the bypass. Hoping to get a 2 flat here. I know the car can do it...
Thanks for the replies guys. I was hoping it was something a long the lines of it being able to steer for you as well in addition to controlling the speed (basically what the Tesla autopilot is). That would've been awesome. haha.
As the title suggests, do all the 2021 premiums come with DRCC? Also what's the extent of the DRCC? Will it steer and apply brakes for me? And last but not least, do I need to configure it in the system to actually work?
haha. We'll see. I've been hearing about a lot of people picking up a Supra so we'll be probably be seeing more of them on track.
You're in the bay right? Hopefully we'll run into each at an event.
Happy New Years guys. I've got some people asking me about what mods I have on the car so far so I figured I'd post it here. Also this list isn't final as we change things up but this is my mod list to date. Enjoy!

haha yeah those engine notes are beautiful.
Ended up with the Supra though. The inner ricer / child in me still wants to mod and race so I think it'll be a couple of years before I move into the P cars.
How do you permamently turn off the lane assist? WIth or without bimmercode? (I've got bimmercode so if we can do it from there, i'm open to it).
Damn lane assist almost served me back into a car the other day.

THe car is mainly a track car but it sees its share of the street. Car is very compliable. Honestly you wouldn't be to tell that the car has coilovers.
