    New guy, no "track times" thread?

    Thanks. I plan on running whatever is applicable for the class, I have experience with slicks, albeit not Hoosiers. It sounds like I need to do some reading on the rules in TT4! Yep, car will 100% be over 3k. Interesting, this means wheel width also plays into the decision vs just always...

    Oh yeah, I realize lap times are only getting faster. Danny Popp did a 1:30 flat on 200TW in his monster C5 a few years ago too, insanity. I have a couple buddies in home built Fox/SN95s in the 135s on club. Congrats on the record! Car was about 4,150lbs with me in it, so I was pretty...

    Not at all, I appreciate the discussion. Interesting information. I will admit I'm starting from square one as it relates to knowledge of how TT works so this is helpful.

I have extensive experience at Mid Ohio, but that's really the only track I've been to (did Nelson Ledges but wasn't a fan), just too close to venture out. I also never had a...

    I'd like to chat about TT actually. I have a TON of HPDE experience over the years, open passing in advance group, etc. but haven't done much with NASA. I heard it's kind of rough getting started with them if that's the case. Curious what your experience has been, thoughts, recommendations...

    Am I missing this thread somewhere? New guy in Ohio, going to be putting some work into a 2006 GT for HPDE and potentially time trials this winter for next year.
