FINALLY! Someone else that tracks their cars!!! I have never had the SL to Mid Ohio. I mainly run out west...but I did have my old Indycar at Mid Ohio....what a great track. I was only there once....I think it would take me a number of times to really get it down. 48s doesn't seem too bad for a street car on street tires(I bet you were pretty close to alot of supposedly more 'serious' sports cars...I'm also sure that you got some serious speed coming out of the key hole before braking for that slight uphill right hander!! Thanks heavens for big brakes. Did your brakes start to overheat and the dash lights come on?
