lol Of course this was when I did my best lap of the weekend at a 2:03. I was pissed that I didn't have the gopro on. I later added the gopro after run #2 on Sunday when I hooked up with Rob (great guy) from L.I., NY in his red corvette. For my last session of the day I used the go pro following the red corvette. I think our best was a 2:04 (traffic) Here it is:
My best lap on a cool day was 2:06 at VIR on RA1's.

Nice driving, Clarke.
6th sure seemed to settle the car down in the esses...allowing more throttle

Regeared 6th?
If i had data....
Im surprised at 2nd gear use also, with Hoosiers you should be able to carry more speed.
Just looked at my best lap there and i think 2nd could be faster at oak tree but I shift so slow and don't have CLarkes car control or *****.
Maybe I'm just lazy, Clarke sure is much busier then me in the car :-)

Great driving Clarke. NASA is going to run a Time Trials there in July, along with the 2012 Ultimate Track Car Challenge event.
I want to watch a video of Sly in the Black GT3 getting point-by from the boys, it must be fun.
Why 2 GT3? Sell the Black one and get a Scuderia, you will love it: no snap oversteer, deeper braking, shifting allows both hands on the steering wheel, and Z06 won't walk away from you.

not a clue. only started timing myself this year on R6's with gf's iphone. Before that I used to ask Rmag what our times were since I would glue myself to his bumper (he has one of those fancy timers).
