The DCT helps a ton here since I'm not going down from 5th to 3rd in T5 and Canada Corner.

After the 2nd day ever on RA...still have lots of time to gain in T1 and T5. Still got some more speed to get in T7. I don't think I can push any harder through T8 and T12. I'm going through the kink in 5th with a brush of the brakes. For some reason, I can't get comfortable pushing the car through carousel. I'm having trouble getting the lift right before the apex so I've run a little wide coming out of there a couple of times. I love T12-T14...fun, fun, fun sliding the car across the track coming out of T13.

Overall AWESOME track! Better than COTA but still, as a track, Motorsport Ranch 3.1 is the best! If you haven't driven the MSR 3.1 near Ft. Worth, TX...you should. It's quite a challenge...

Not the fast lap but a video nonetheless.
