4 days total on the ADO8R.
The fronts are done. The rear are still good.

With the JRZ settings I listed above I was able to run consistent laps at the high 1:38s and low 1:39s.

There are some interesting observations.
While the car feel a lot better and more consistent, I was not that much faster.

I did clicked the shaft +1 on all 4 corners from the settings above and it made the car a tiny bit crisper. I like it.

I did 1:38s first day of the season with last year ADOR8 with the softer settings on the JRZ and stiffer sway-bar settings.

Another improvement is that I now run the same pace with DSC on or off. In fact, my best time this year was 1:38.20 with DSC off.

I now run turn 18 (last before the straight) @ 48/49 mph with few times hitting 50mph. I do that at 3rd gear now compares to 4th gear beginning of the season.

The back stretch (8/9/10) I now get to 103/105 mph compare to 95-98 early in the season.

This all helps me turning consistent laps per session on 1:38/39 but to this day I can't yet put a lap togehter to actually go down to the 1:37. My goal for 2018 is 1:36.

Plan for the next two track days is to mount a left over PS4S 265/30/19 on the front and to finish off the rear ADO8R 295/30/19.

For September I have 3 track days in a row and I am thinking mounting Troffeo Rs or go slicks and get down to 1:36.

As a reference, I get to the end of the main straight doing 127/129 mph.

I was running with a Porsche GT4 and GT3 and they get to 145mph and run 1:36s. So for me to be at 1:36, I will have run faster at the slower sections. I can't see getting up to 145 giving the distance.

Picture of fronts after 4 track days and -2.9 camber. The last day i was only able to run 1:40-1:42. So these front may not show cords, but they don't have the grip either.
