I had two days of 2 x 30 minute sessions at TC2000 this weekend. Saturday, my goal was to rotate the front right/left tires to spread some wear on to the lightly used front right tire. This proved to be very exciting as the car under-steered drastically on corner entry. Other places it was hyper-sensitive like the start/middle of the 80R and the final turn where I had a rather large over-steer moment. So while I did well to get a 1'11.08 it was a little insane to try perhaps. Still - nothing like testing your reflexes. Rotated the tires back to their proper sides Saturday evening. I put the times down to trying hard to brake properly and hit the apexes.
Sunday, I didn't know what to expect but regarding the tires and if I would have similar excitement in the other direction. It was also drizzling rain but not really wet. So when I got a few 1'10s I was very happy with my driving. I actually had a half tank of gas at the end of the day also so I guess I can be faster if the car is lighter. Best lap time was a 1'10.564 which beats my previous best. Happy days! Looking at the best sectors, if they had all been on the same lap, I would have got a 1'10.3 so there is more speed there also. I feel a 1'09 is not all that far away.
Here are my top 5 times:
____________Sec 1__Sec 2__Sec 3__km/h
1. 1'10.564 28.838 29.181 12.547 144.869
2. 1'10.614 28.727 29.270 12.617 144.850
3. 1'10.666 28.766 29.270 12.630 145.337
4. 1'10.708 28.909 29.283 12.516 146.421
5. 1'10.911 28.964 29.326 12.621 144.212
I think I'm a little slow at the speed-trap. I noticed other NCs on the Result Sheet are getting 149.896 which is quite a big difference to me. Hmmmm. Guess I have to work on my 2nd hairpin exit still.

Good driving. The sector time look very consistent.
