Ah, that's why I couldn't find you later in the day! (Frank here, Harry's buddy. I was racing in FE.)

So, I qualified conservatively while sharing the track with 40 other cars ... In qualifying (which felt like driving an Audi R15 through GT2 traffic) we set a new track record for T2 at Laguna... ever.
Wow, I'd love to see what happens when you qualify aggressively! Congrats on the record on the first time out. Impressive. Also sounds like R3 has done a great job with the car.

The run group has everything from 600 hp+ NSX's,
That NSX is wicked. Folks I've talked to estimate it's a $200k car though. A bit overkill even for GT-1. Seems to have reliability problems as well. I'm sure they'll get it sorted out though.

I ended up setting new T2 track records in both races; the best time I turned was a 1:39 something.
Nice icing on the cake. Well done and great writeup!
