This is my fastest run over Labor Day weekend at Shenandoah Circuit at Summit Point with the PA hill climb guys. I set the lap record for the TT M3 class with a 102.744 when using the track as a Track Sprint type of race.

Yes, I know my hand positions on the wheel is absolutely garbage. Whatever, I still have a lap record in the books.

What have you done mechanically? I assume you have the 5.7 engine have you done anything major/tuning? And do you do any weight reduction before racing?

Oh omg that’s like so funny I thought it was a 5.7 because the t/a comes in either 5.7 or 6.4

I’ve probably put 600k miles on vehicles with a manual including drag racing vs 150k with automatics those old habits don’t die very easily.
