I picked up RE71RS, 275/35/18 and 245/40/18, and shaved almost 5 seconds. It cost me $400/second to break into the (barely) sub-two club LOL. Good weekend with Donk and J.C. but way too damn hot.
I think I warped my rotors at some point because the car would violently shake under hard braking.
Morning sessions I probably had 3-5 hot laps before it got greasy. Afternoon session I had to do 1 hot / 1 cold. Tire seems to like 30 hot. After first session it was 37 left front 34 right front 33 both rear. Definitely got a little greasy by the end of it. The 71RS is a great tire but I don't think I'm fast enough to extract the potential for them to the fullest. I definitely had more fun with the bald Hankook RS4s.
I think all these Axon sessions have created some bad habits for me as I think my lines got worse between October 2022 and July 2023 (Sunday).
Also "hit the apex" way too damn literally. Oops.
Oh also - I didn't experience any problems
on track this time.
