Best time of the day was actually a 1:52.69 but the last session was a long one, the Garmin ran out of space and deleted the video. This video is a 1:54.44. I had old Cup 2s on that had definitely lost their peak grip. Scrappy lap, lots of mistakes. Last time I was at ORP was 2019 in my 981 GT4, and I did a 1:53 clockwise and a 1:51 counterclockwise then. I'm sure next spring when I go back I can get into the 40s with some fresh tires.
Oregon Raceway Park is a gem of a track. It's not fast, but it's very challenging and fun to drive. Several blind apexes, good flow to the layout. Lots of runoff everywhere. Highly recommended!
