Programmers and engineers often excel in motorsport through methodical data-driven approaches to vehicle setup and driving technique optimization.

His LapMeta data shows distributed testing with 13 laps at West configuration, 10 laps at East 3 Mile w/ Bypass, and 7 laps at 13CW. The varied venue preference across three different configurations indicates systematic exploration methodology—testing vehicles across varying layouts to understand how platform characteristics respond to different circuit demands. The 14-vehicle portfolio with nearly four laps per car enables meaningful assessment revealing genuine performance characteristics through sufficient exposure. Track day participants combining technical careers with motorsport often demonstrate analytical rigor in vehicle evaluation and technique development. With 51 laps across 14 vehicles at varied configurations, Sergey S represents the technically-minded enthusiast who applies algorithmic thinking and systematic methodology to motorsport participation supporting data-driven performance optimization.

Made the pilgrimage up to the Ridge again! Competed in OnGrid's Time Attack, however the local competition is much more well-versed in the track and how to go fast on it than I am. My fourth time coming here, so much to still learn. I had a goal to sub 1:50, but I couldn't muster it. I still need to master how to take the "thumb" correctly, as well as how to brake for the complex as to not lose too much time. The track also got pretty warm after this session, making it a bit more difficult to go faster.
