paffinity is an amateur racing driver with 38 recorded laps across 9 vehicles on LapMeta, averaging 4.2 laps per car. This balanced ratio suggests methodical track day participation where each platform receives meaningful attention while maintaining diversity enabling comparative understanding. Over four laps per vehicle allows progression beyond initial familiarization—first laps establish basic characteristics, middle laps build confidence approaching limits, final laps reveal nuanced behaviors requiring extended exposure to discover.
His LapMeta data shows testing with 11 laps at CCW configuration, 7 laps CW, and 5 laps at 2.7 miles CCW. The distribution suggests focused venue preference while maintaining directional variety—testing vehicles at familiar circuit in both directions to understand how reversed corner sequences affect vehicle behavior and optimal techniques. This methodology provides valuable learning about chassis balance, brake bias, and how specific platforms respond to directional variation. The 9-vehicle portfolio with over four laps per car represents balanced approach enabling meaningful platform development. With 38 laps across 9 vehicles averaging 4.2 laps each, paffinity demonstrates methodical approach combining focused platform development with selective portfolio diversity supporting comprehensive comparative vehicle dynamics understanding through systematic evaluation.
Finally broke 2:30 at COTA!
Sorry for the dangling camera, the suction cup mount kept falling off mid session. Sort of cool to see the G's though. Replace with the perma-sticky mount next day, so better not fall off anymore.
First time with this setup at COTA, the shorter gearing is weird but it's nice not needing 2nd anymore. The gears popping out from lower position makes T19 interesting, I just keep it in 5th and lug it through T20 but I'm sure there's a better way.
My goal is to beat the GR cup times (2:27), so hopefully can get some cleaner sessions and cooler weather to make that happen!
