It usually takes me the first session to come to grips with the car. The tires need at least 1.5 laps to warm up, and then I need to get off to adjust my tire pressures.

Can't fix everything at once, but one of my first driving coach's basically got me to me to focus on max of 3 things to change/practice at a time.
what you don't see is the 100's of events/1000's of laps behind someone else's experience as they come out guns blazing, they all started where you are.

Anyone do a 7 day trip down to the states to hit up a bunch of tracks over summer?

Havent looked into it, figure drive one day, track next, repeat till you get home

Could go sit on a beach and do nothing for a week in mexico for 3 grand

Or you could go abuse your car for a week straight for the "same" kind of money is my logic

Went to VIMC over the weekend on Sunday. My friend had fixed a couple issues with the car when I last drove it in May. Earlier in the morning already did a 1:18.1 but knowing there was time on the table still. Decided to chase for the sub 1:18 and got a 1:17.77

I wanted to do this along Cali or smt. Do a road trip to Cali, hit up the tracks, hit up the canyons, and then hopefully your car is still in one piece to get home LOL

2026?

We can tow each other if one of us breaks down

End of season update, did mission two more times. Two weeks ago just straight up butchered all my laps

Yesterday chewed off a whopping 0.1 seconds from my record two months ago.
Also got to drive when it was fully dark on track, that was awesome.

‘We’re dying’: Highway 1 in Big Sur closure to continue through winter
https://www.sfgate.com/centralcoast/...g-21063911.php

Wait until 2026 Spring/Summer.

In the meantime, churn Hyatt credit cards and points so that you can book this spot:
https://www.hyatt.com/alila-hotels-a...entana-big-sur

If you golf, get a tee time at Pebble Beach, drive 17 mile drive at sunset.

Check back in late January and make a booking for the hot springs so that you don't have to sneak in at like 2AM like I did:
https://www.gallowaykitetrail.com/ta...a-hot-springs/

Be REALLY REALLY REALLY careful in Monterrey county, that court does NOT play with traffic tickets.
Many CA traffic lawyers do NOT take cases in that county.
