1.43.07 personal best from my first time running Laguna Seca in the E46.
My goal was to beat my F80's lap from pre-repave, a 1.41.81. However the weather didn't want to cooperate and I only had a session or two to capitalize on. Still happy with the time despite the circumstances.
This years trip was sort of a fail...
Rained the entire day Saturday and had streams/wet-spots all day Sunday. That damn turn 3 river.
The same exact thing happen the other two times I came with the F80.
I've never had a completely dry day and it definitely messes with me. I don't really know what the limits of the track are and I don't want to end up in a wall. So there is a fine risk/reward. :(
Also had to fight the 90db limit. Blew sound (92.5) on Saturday and would have been kicked out after a second offense. Most laps I short shifted and veered off line to the left. That worked.
This was later on the second day . So I went for it and stayed in it compared to all my other laps. Clearly it helped since I PB'd. Was able to carry more speed.
I really think a 1.40 is doable if I actually had a full proper dry day.
Just cant take things at the speed I want. Which also effects the lines I decide to take.
Will find a better time of the year for a fourth Laguna trip in 2024. Until then...
