At this SCCA TT event we brought Project #Hellrotten out for Amy to hopefully score points for the 2025 Texas Region championship battle - and she did not disappoint, coming away with her 5th win out of 5 events this season.
The only performance changes made to the 1995 M3 this time were the 4 piston Brembo 13.5" dia big brake kit up front along with G-LOC R12 / R10 pads over the previous stock brakes and Rockauto semi-metallic pads. The difference there was astounding, and Amy was able to run the full 20 minute sessions with max braking of 1.34 g and 100% confidence in every stop (which was lacking before). Vorshlag brake cooling deflectors up front did their part as well.
The used (2023 season take-offs from Trigger!) 315mm Yokohama 315mm tires were making big lateral grip (1.47g) and everything else just worked. Amy drove in the wet 2nd session to learn this new 1.65 CW course, then put on a clinic in the TT Green group in session 3 and 4. She started off session 4 with an off at T4, but recovered and went back out to run the rest of the session and set her PB on lap 7 with a 1:20.413.
Next event is at MSR 1.7 CCW (our test track!) in August - stay tuned for that, and thanks for watching!
