Experience a personal best lap of 1:50.84 at Utah Motorsports Campus East in a Toyota GR86. This impressive time was achieved on the final lap of a track day, marking the last run for the Kumho V730 tires. The car demonstrated consistent performance in moderate 75°F weather, with multiple laps in the 1:50.8 range.
The Garmin Catalyst indicated an optimal lap of 1:49.0, setting an exciting goal for future sessions to break into the sub-1:50 club. While the Kumho V730 tires performed well, their longevity was limited to about four track days of aggressive driving before showing significant wear.
Upcoming sessions will feature Hankook R-S4 tires, anticipated to offer greater durability, providing a new challenge for achieving faster lap times.
