Lots of traffic, only got about 2 traffic free laps, turns out that was good for the tires. Warmed up, but not greasy yet. Watkins Glen Next weekend!

Very nice, my M2 can't come close to that speed, but with MP coilovers and camber plates I think it handles similar to your car:

Thanks, I think the car has more time in it if I make some adjustments to the suspension. I think the car is also under tired with the stock PSC2's. I just haven't had time to play with it much.

Add some neg camber...not a fan of PSC2. Run the RE71s for overall wet/dry/street , or BFG R1 for dry.

Thanks for the comments. I already have camber plates but have not installed them. If I get to the point that I'm going to seriously track the car I will go to a much more aggressive tire and wheel package and certainly lower the car to the track setting on the suspension.

Doubtful that I get there with this car given that I have an e92 M3 GT4 race car that gets most of my attention and time.

Great choice....what kind of lap times does the e92 run at Sebring.

Lime Rock Park

1:01.37, dvas, M2, 6MT (Nitto NT01, Bilstein B16 PSS10, PFC08)

Really nice day with great weather at LRP. As part of my Birthday present girlfriend came along for her first ever ride on track. Some interesting moments. She thought I was looking for a high-five when getting point bye's Also not particularly pleased when sliding the car or following too closely for her comfort to a nice white M3. Had a bit of a moment when I decided to try drifting around the left-hander on the last lap.

LimeRock Park with Patroon BMW
Session 4 (the last few minutes only)

Thanks, that's also with a passenger. I think the M2 is pretty well setup for both street and track and easy to drive. Nittos also made a big impact. I think a driver that's a little more aggressive or willing to push more can break the 60 second barrier in the car.
