New PR for me at ECR yesterday
Two buddies and I split a day of coaching with Jason Hart @ ECR and I dropped 3 seconds!!! I went from a 2:10.8 to a 2:07.8 (and I got two of those). Whereas it was all I could manage to get under 2:11 before, I'm now consistently in the 08-09 range. The car is capable of quite a bit more I'm sure. It's the driver that still needs a lot more work. Man, that was fun. For the money I don't know of anything that I could have bolted on for that kind of drop in time. Here is a video of one of my 07.8 laps. Funny thing is, I got so excited when I saw the time that I didn't get on the brakes early enough and drove off in T1. Yeah, I'm a rookie.

Driving a 99 with mp62 @ 11 lbs boost on RA 1s. It was $550/person. He rode with me three sessions and we did 5 class room session and he drove us slowly around the track talking about the line and camber changes and reference points and technique.
I'll have to add the off to the video. It would be funny.

What lap times do spec miata's run at ECR?
I've seen times during races on video at around 2:09. so I bet those guys could do 07s on an empty track. Someone posted on another forum about a SM doing a 2:05. If that's true then that's driving! Holy cow. If I ever got to an 05 in my car with all the extra hp over a SM I'd be jumping up and down.

Looks like 2:07's.
I've turned 2:06/2:07's and I think Ken should be in the 1:59 range lol.
I was trying to go out today, but weather sucks.
M3 is always the answer.

That's really fast for a car with no power. Those guys must be carrying mad corner speed. That's why they are racing and I am not.
Crawl back in your hole gimp.

If you wever want to know SCCA track records in this division they are here:

Congrats on your track record at ECR Keith. That's a really fast time in a SM.
I wish they had MSR Cresson times.
They should, as there was one race a couple of years ago. A fast SM is in the 1:25s and my turbo car runs 1:22s, te occasional 1:21 in the right conditions. I did a 1:20.xx on slicks one time, but the alignment was not optimal and I destroyed those tires.
