Re: Road Racing / Autocross / Time Attack Picture Post!!!
Got my first proper track day in with the company bucket last week at Buttonwillow 1CW. Car is an SRO TCA spec 2018 Civic Si on RC-1s with endurance pads and is making a little more power than normal on this calibration. It should have a 2:10 in it with these brakes, tires and power level, my best lap was a 2:17.9... not bad for a first time out I think. I'm now company approved to drive the racecar 'unsupervised' at official events.
Also stoked that I've lost a chunk of weight in the last couple months and I finally feel like I look good in a firesuit again... lol.
Time to get my own helmet and HANS, I'm looking forward to getting NASA licensed and getting into some wheel to wheel seat time over the next 12 months or so.
Also, BWR is HOT in August, although not as hot as the proving grounds in Mojave last month. I started feeling a little punchy at the end of my last thirty minute outing in the hottest part of the day when I ran out of ice. Cool shirt is a life saver. Do recommend.
No good action shots because I was in the car, definitely getting the Smarty Cam going for next time and/or nabbing the wife's GoPro.

Fresh off the plane at the shop on Monday night, 19 hour wrap job on Tuesday, arrive at the track on Wednesday, first fire up and session on Friday, qualify and race on Saturday. Quite a week.
