Thanks  :happy2:
Yup... As we both said... An early turn in is making me miss the apex by 1.5 meters and an understeer at exit.

About the tires, I have to say I've had 4 Hungaroring track days (about 20 sessions), 23 Nurburgring laps and one Spa track day (4 sessions) ~900 miles (1400km) . The tires are worn but I think I won't change them yet....
The outer part of the front left tire and the inner part of the front right tire are slicks (no more groves) but the rest are pretty much ok... They suffer from overinflation (so the middle is a little bit worn compared to the outer parts), but other than that all is fine. I wouldn't like to use them on rain, but they might be ok for a few more dry track days.
I will make some photos of the tires to see exactly what I mean...

rex:
Oh... and I forgot... some more photos with the car on the track  :smiley:
She really likes being on the track  :love:.

Rex, now it's time to have a PerformanceBox and display some data, isn't it?

What the man said. Will do it myself in the future. Bruce, do you think a driftbox would be appropriate ?

Ha ha, doubt it...  :smiley:
I am still going on the track for fun and I am not that interested in the lap record... I am only keeping track of time to see if/how I am improving my driving skills. Once you are all about time you might take some chances you wouldn't take otherwise. At Hungaroring I can afford to take some chances but at Nurburgring I cannot.
And I still have a long way to go before my budget will allow me to spend 1000 EURO on lap recording. Before the beginning of next years track days I hope to make some major mods to the car. How, they say: I have bigger fish to fry  :innocent:.
