3.15.65 personal best from my second time running Thunderhill 5 Mile Double Bypass in the E46. 91* ambient high.

Absolutely smashed my old E46 PB (3.19.22). Not only met my goal for the day by over 2 seconds but also annihilated my F80's best lap from 2022. (3.17.59). This was the very first hot lap of session 2.

Still room for improvement. I am getting lazy with tracking all the way out in a few spots. Need to be a little more patient with my turn in. Trying to cut the corners too hard.

First time since I've owned both cars that the E46 holds the current overall PB over the F80 :) Tried to set a newer F80 reference lap last year but it rained :/ Might be able to break 3.10 on that car. 

Blistered the front right tire coming off track after this session. Third day on my first set of AR1's. Not a huge fan of this tire. They can put down laps, but they did not last long for me. 13 sessions before showing blisters.

Shout out @JoeMcGuiganRacing for the footage review. Helped me tweak a few lines before this session.
