I am very happy with my lap time considering this is my first day ever driving at Autobahn but my consistency was not good because of my lack of experience at this track. I had a few partial laps at high 2:42 pace throughout the day but never managed a full one due to traffic and mistakes.
6/5/2023 Laps Inc. 6th (final) advanced run group session at 4:30pm which was combined with intermediate run group drivers. Gas was at a little under 1/2 of a tank.
81°F, wind 10mph from E
The red Camaro SS 1LE had headers and a cold air intake with stock wheels/tires. I enjoyed meeting the driver and chasing him during the last 2 sessions! He said his best lap of the day was a low 2:42.
I moved the start/finish line in Cosworth Toolbox to this point to avoid the traffic I caught up to at the end of the lap and it recalculated the lap time even though the overlay start/finish line did not change. This time matches closely with the predictive delta Harry's Lap Timer was showing live when I caught the traffic. I still lost a bit of time at the start of this lap to traffic so it probably would have been a high 2:42 lap without that. I mistakenly set the PDR start/finish line after turn 1 instead of in the official location before turn 1.
I guess I forgot to downshift from 4th gear to 3rd gear before turn 2 on this lap which cost me a few mph of top speed before turn 4 compared to other laps so it probably cost me a little bit of lap time too. I was comfortable carrying more speed through turns 4 and 5 in 4th gear than 3rd gear. The line I used through turn 16 getting the right side tires way up on the apex curb would probably require counter steering as you drop off of the curb if running with traction and stability fully off but I had assistance assistance from PTM so that was not required.
2017 Camaro SS 1LE. Unmodified engine using PTM Sport 2, stock Goodyear Supercar 3 (220 treadwear) tires, track alignment (camber: -2.2° front, -1.8° rear, toe: +0.05° front on each side, some toe in for the rears), SPL Rear Toe Links with Eccentric Lockout, BMR BK063 Rear Diff Cradle Bushing Lockout Kit, FEA front lower front control arms from ZL1 1LE (since stock fluid filled bushings leaked), 2021 SS 1LE ABS control module (EBCM) to get better ice mode calibration (found on 2019+ SS 1LEs) which prevents intermittent hard brake pedal and reduced stopping force in bumpy braking zones, Castrol SRF DOT 4 brake fluid, stock Brembo (Ferodo HP1000/1) brake pads, GM plastic track brake cooling deflectors, smaller GM metal brake dust / splash shields, Ikon Motorsports 2019+ stock style 3 piece front splitter. The car is in track mode with touring steering mode and track exhaust mode. Ambient temperature was 81°F with 24% humidity. It was overcast in the morning and sunny in the afternoon.
Note that Windows 10 Video Editor doesn't seem to allow you to select the exact frame to start and end the video trim so the video length is off very slightly compared to the lap time. Windows Movie Maker lets you do this but it takes a long time to load the session before you can trim it and a long time to export it.
