I just want to again say, seat time is important, when I started tracking I was doing 2:40s, then the mod bug hitted me, I started modding and modding, sway bars, boltons, coilovers, alignment, brakes, tune, tires. I reached 2:32 on PSS and then 2:27 on Re71r. My car lacked toe adjustment range -didn't buy midlink or toe bolts- changed the bushings and got LSD, my alignment got messed up with too much rear toe in. The car was tail happy. Did 2:26 on r888r.

Some people said that is the car limit, but I installed toe bolts and got Hankook V12 evo2 tires (a downgrade), I did 2:28 with proper alignment (-2.2 front camber 0 toe 6 caster, -1.6 rear stock toe in). Returned to stock suspension with nexen sur4g and increased the front camber to -2.5 and rear to -2, I did 2:24. Installed new coilovers and I did 2:21.

So just to sum up, I was lacking a lot in driving skills and I held my car performance, still holding it, going from 2:40s (where I should be doing low 2:30s), to 2:30s (I should do high 2:20s) to 2:27 (should do low 2:20s)

But also, with shorter tracks, getting lower lap times is harder.


What I am trying to say, if you aren't reaching the limit of you current tires, you will not reach the limit of semi-slicks, and semi slicks are more tricky to drive on the limit, slicks are even harder.
