First time to Laguna since aero installation and was pleased to be sub 1:40 on NT-01s with 20+ sessions on them. Excited to get back and keep chipping away.
Fastest of the day was 1:39.73. Any and all pro-tips are sincerely appreciated.

Is it possible to move the camera higher?

I'd recommend playing with shock of swaybar setting to dial out the nervousness at the rear end. The oversteer is obvious, but the car look unsettled under braking as well

Also, you should not be adding steering input after the apex of turn 9. Your too far left at the entrance of the corner which pinches your exit causing the additional yank on the wheel post apex. You should be on the gas before the apex and opening up the wheel just after it to track out.

Interesting. Haven't experienced that yet. I feel that post aero I'm fighting off a touch more understeer. Might be my driving or could be something to address in set up. Will be discussing with Tony at TC Design.

When you got behind the Miata…

My car sometimes gets a little weird when I’m following another car. One time, I had a car come across the car (different line) and my ABS just went into ice mode.

Couple other times when the car just feels a little different.

Since I’ve put on aero, I sometimes get oversteer if I’m behind someone exiting a corner.

Latest and greatest from Sonoma Raceway. First time there since installation of Bimmerworld V3 Aero. Was definitely a game changer for Turn 1&2. Current PR at a 1:51.52.
Goal is to ditch the passenger and be in the 1:50s on the way to 1:49s next time.
Any and all feedback is appreciated.

Here's mine from VIR. Need to sort the suspension out still, curbs are upsetting the car too much.

Great lap. Gives me something to aspire to! Thanks for sharing.

Specs on your car? Thats a good lap. I just bought an E46M3 as my back up track car to the E30M3 car, and can't wait to get it out to VIR for a test to see how I like it. All I've ever really driven on track is an E30M3 ha. Mine is a little more modded than most though....

Essentially it's 3100lbs with driver, 310whp, TCK D/A's on 970/1120 springs, on Pirelli DHD2 scrubs, built diff, no aero.

I think I need to turn down the compression as it's pretty wild over some of the curbs, have about 2-3 clicks left on the adjustments. Gets two wheels up in oak tree and hops pretty violently over the middle upper esses curb (right one), hard to stay in throttle over it.

What did Tony do to your car this go around other than dash and finish the roll cage?

Aero, flat trunk, cae shifter, 5 speed swap, new clutch, fire system, chillout install, cf roof, pecan quarter and rear windows, fender work to fit 295 Hoosiers. That’s the most of it.

Oh wow! I’m going to revalve my TCKs for higher spring rates. Who did it?

True Choice in HIlliard, Ohio! Painted them yellow too

They gave me football curves with the shocks, and my buddy recommended some shock settings based off the graphs.
