This was my first time with the type R at this track and it shows. Practice on Friday was the baseline which isn't quick for this car and the mods. I was able to find a bunch of time in this session which made it my fastest time of the weekend. I improved a lot with consistency and through offramp significantly throughout the weekend but couldn't put it all together in the right conditions to beat this lap. Optimal by the end of the weekend was down to a 1:56.5 but even that is not very quick for the car.

This was a very sloppy lap with mistakes in offramp, choppy inputs in cotton corners, and lack of commitment up to and through bus stop/riverside. Definitely can get on power earlier in the sweeper and improve the line there to enable earlier throttle.

Overall, not super stoked with this lap since there's so much that can be improved but it was a super fun event and it was good to branch out to a new track. 
Can't wait to come back and improve!
