Did this track for the first time this weekend, lot of fun. Missed you by a week Clint and I had martin instructing me. He taught me the same lines, but he did teach me to ride a bit higher through turn 1(maybe because stock suspension?).

I was playing w 2 vs 3rd gear on turn 3, I like the idea of using it at the hairpin as well if necessary like you did a few times.

Why do you prefer to stay low on main straight and T1/2?

My best time was a 2:11 which I don't think is too shabby for a newbie that is mainly stock and the first time I did the track. I think I can probably get down around 2:05 but then I think suspension/brakes would limit me. I definitely learned the extent of my suspension on this track. The sweeper/U-turn is definitely a place I could pick up some speed, and I was staying below 130 per martin's advice on turn 1/2 but I could definitely have gone faster.
