Slicks
So I just got back from my 14th track day at Palmer Motorsports Park in MA. I love the "Lapping Days" because for $400 you get 5 hours of track time...(4) 1:15 sessions. With gas what it is now, I look for the biggest track day bang for my buck that I can find.
Anyways, best time at Palmer, ever, was 1:53 and change running R888R's. Yesterday was my first time running a scuffed set of Pirelli P Zero slicks (285/645/18) on my RPF1's from Todd Zimmer of GT Racing Tires. Wow.
Like I said, my best time over the previous 13 trips to Palmer was 1:53 and change...I ran a 1:48 yesterday. I was in the 1:51 to 1:49 range most of the day.
Between the new aero (front splitter and rear wing from BattleAero) and those slicks, I can't believe the decrease in lap times!
