Z-tech traction control module + brake boost + burnout

I think you are missing the point. Yes a more well balanced car will result in better lap times. It is why you see fast lap times from low skilled drivers in late model cars or track cars that have been properly setup. Those cars mask the driver's true abilities. You went faster because of your confidence along with your new setup. Good for you! That said, you are still limited by your time and understanding of proper driving. Your new found confidence can also lead to tragedy (I really hope not) as many drivers that experience what you have end up in a scenario where they run out of talent because they think they are better than they are. The thing you have to keep in mind is the faster you go the greater the consequences when things go bad. As Clint Eastwood famously said, "A man has to know his limitations!"
