Man, for once I can say I pushed the car as much as I could without going overboard this weekend. I unfortunately don't have video due to go pro trade up program, but oh well.

I bested my time 3 separate times this weekend (1 tenth each time). I think the car still has a few tenths left with the way the car sits. Probably low 1:25's with ideal weather conditions I think is achievable going balls out. I think it would be very difficult to get this thing into 1:24's as it sits. I'm about 90% confident in that because I was braking as late as I felt comfortable (marker 3.25). I was full tilt on these tires in every single turn (they were screaming for dear fucking life).
On the exact 40th session/heat cycle these RC-1's I managed to hit a 1:25.5 which was 0.6 seconds faster than November when it was cold. And that 1:25.5 was on the last session of the day. If I count the lap I got a draft last November then it would only be 0.4 seconds faster
I also stayed super consistent and kept up my pace throughout the TT sessions as DJ recommended and ran several 1:25's through the weekend. I'll gladly take the 1:25's with happiness from the way the car sits. I think it's actually quite impressive in comparison to others. 155whp peak (147 average). Stock aero. Stock brakes. Only 235 wide RC-1's that are sort of worn out. 2460lbs for weight. Yeah.... Not bad at all.
Progression below as you can see I picked up consistentcy and was burning off a tenth at a time. Definitely nearing the limits without going off track lol

It was supposed to rain this weekend, but of course I decided to bring my rain tires and get them mounted, so it didn't rain at all for racers and TT. You're welcome guys!
On to CMP if I get brake pads in time or Hydrofest next!!
Oh, and I had a blast with Maeng in DE4! So much fun playing cat/mouse
