First time on Racecomp Engineering Tarmac 2 coilovers, and it took me a couple of sessions to get used to them, and dial in decent damping settings. Unfortunately, the traffic in my run group was pretty bad with inadequately slow cars ruining every other lap, so I didn't get a chance to put down a clean lap when the conditions were still good. I ended up getting P2, only 0.031s behind P1, and here's a video of my two best shots. The list of excuses also includes tires that had basically 8 track days worth of heat cycles on them.
