I didn't drive the car however. My close friend Dan was given a track day eveni by his wife for his birthday back in December. Well the day rolled around and he didn't have a car with a roll bar. Being the good friend that I am, I said he could run my car. I was also more than curious to see what it could turn on the track.
Well, he went out on the street tires for his first 2 sessions. The car was running really well aside from being known a little unhealthy. He was learning the lines through the track and once he had them down, it was time to try the real tires. I pretty much knew what a handful car was with the street tires, and decided that it was time to sacrifice some r-compounds to the roadster gods. The result was a best lap of 2.18. While not the fastest time out there, by the end of the day he was giving everyone in front of him a run for their money. We didn't retune for race power and gas, but just left it in street mode. It held its own and offered up a couple of good photo opps.
