I would personally reccomend focusing on carrying more speed into and through the corners in the second half of the track ( From the Bowl to the Final corner ) and being a bit more tight on the apexes. Youre about a half car width or more from where you really want to put the car.

Additionally it seems like youre a little rough on the steering, try predicting more where you want to put the car and steer sooner to smooth it out.

you are completely right. Thats what i did this time,also I started double apexing the bowl instead of sling shotting it like you see in this vid went from a 1:32 to 1:27. Now I have to figure out my braking.

hey guys, just ran it again. this video is a 1:26 but i was running 1.24's, just none i caughton video, i know its suspicous lol. I have so much time to save in the second chicane after the bowl and in the bowl itself. instead of keeping it in 4th i can go to 3rd right at my breaking zone into the bowl and get a couple more seconds there

Yep, you are bogging down because you should be in a lower gear. You want to keep those revs high. Your inputs are nice and smooth. You have definitely improved. Nice work.

Justin, what camera did you shoot the video with? Did you use like a mic cover? I like the both video and audio quality. Seems like some of the wind noise/impacts were dampened, which was great.
