Yes Joe, it really feels weird being the ONLY car on the track. Makes you think why you ever drive this fast to the point of losing tire adhesion and risk your life and limb for what ....? There is no plastic trophy or umbrella girls waiting for me at the paddock other than my cheap $10 Walmart folding chair and a 1/2 empty boba tea. It reminded me of mountain biking alone at Mt Tam or shooting hoops by myself in the park ... it's the love of the game and a disease lol

It will be more fun with other around but it's nice to be alone testing out the brakes and working on variation of lines and shift point. I had a huge grim on my face at the end of the day and that's enough

Here is the track video and I also post it on my PCCB to steel rotor thread

Yes, It was me, myself and I on the track for 30 minutes each session. I was the only street car in the afternoon. The other street car's turbo blew up LOL. Interesting experience and will do it again if I have to test out other stuff. Great chance to do lead and follow or drag race down the straight

PCCB is lighter and the car feels more responsive. Heck, I got a set laying around might as well use it
