Oh yeah, T8 is pretty scary. Due to the rough track surface there and tighter radius, I think it's scarier than T2 at ACS.

Re: aero, I'm in the same boat. Just don't like the idea of putting all that stuff on a perfectly-nice daily. Start off with just the wing, and inevitably, it'll progress to some killer splitter at the front (deep & sturdy, plus those metal tie-rods, etc), then even canards, etc. So far in my mind, that's more trouble than it's worth. Plus, then you'll be going much faster, which will require bucket seats with 6-point harness. Where does it end? At this point, I'm just resigned to the fact that, yes, fast lap times are nice (which is an indication of how well the car is setup), but you can still have tons of fun without all those aids if the focus is on driving, as versus lap times.

Quite frankly, and not to take anything away from Cody, I'm more impressed with your lap times than those of heavily-mod'd cars.

You make good point. I agree hands make the videos more fun. Seeing all the corrections



And thank you.
Hopefully we non aero guys can cross paths soon. I'll be at Extreme Speed this sun at bw
