After watching the NASCAR race at Sears Point today, I was wondering what y'all were running out there. Anyone have lap times? I wish the commentators had mentioned those more - all I heard was 1:19 for the Gordons in the middle of the race...

yeah, at the beginning they were running 119s, then when he got behind that one lap car, it was mid 120s or so...

Is your question regarding what a GT car or an IT car does at Sears Point? I am very curious myself. I thought they (NASCAR) looked piggy out there but I have no frame of reference.

I got this from TCRA. It has a diverse group running Time trials, and also different stages of mods. Look at the R's versus the Cobras

Can't compare lap times, because Nascar uses the "Nascar Chute". TCRA ran the normal 4-5-6 loop. What a fun track!

That was a pretty exciting Nascar race though. Those cars look good on a road course. Too bad they don't do it more often.

As a reference, there were nicely prepped M3 Lightweights running with TCRA that did about 1:55. I believe Taz Harvey ran about 1:51 in testing in his SVWC ITR.
