NASA April events
Thanks for the tips. Looking at the speeds thru the turns it seems that i did carry a bit more momentum last year vs this year. The mid corner speeds are slightly lower this year. I do see a few spots that lag did come into play but i made it up pretty quick. I think if i could have run the same mid corner speeds that would have evened out the lag feel.
Braking is up consistently from checking the data.

I was there! I was the guy next to you on Saturday in the black Evo X that will be running TT3 going forward. I had the big ol' brake failure due to a caliper bolt coming off and torpedoing my coilover. Nice meeting you, I'll be at every other event. My coilover is being repaired as we speak.
great event. I had a blast. Had the car all setup for TT2 but with only 2 others in the class, I jumped to TTU as I wanted some tires!
I'll have to send you my log Jeremy.

The big differences that i see are
Braking time 26.1 to 21.5
max braking 1.3 to 1.5
Max accel 1.09 to 1.22
Max left load 1.82 to 1.6
Max rt load 1.9 to 2.4
min speed 40.2 to 42.10
Max speed 126 to 128
It looks like if i could just have maintained a bit more corner speed and reduced braking time i would have been able to get a bit faster.

Oh and FWIW, Andy was within .2 on Sat and 1 sec on Sunday of the National Champion in TTS/TT2 the first time at Autobahn. I truly believe he has a very good shot at a National championship if he chooses to pursue it. 
It was nice to meet you morricus! Sorry to hear about the suspension taking the hit.

I'm excited for the next Autobahn event. My goal this year is to beat Geff in the vette this year. I don't know if I'll go to Utah for Nationals though. That's a long haul.

From: somewhere testing various tires, brakes, and suspensions.
I will be at this weekends event racing CMC/PTC and running HPDE 3/4.
Looking forward to seeing how the ST/TT1-3 classes run in person.
