No prob. I heard alignment only do you good within 1 second. But I think it is quite critical and it has been in my obsessive routine before track days.

5 sec is not a lot with suspension, tyres and brake mods. S2K cannot strip too much.... ??

Suspension mod works wonder on track. show me the layout of the track ...

That is better. I assume you talk about track 2? That will be 4 sec with suspension and mod. Easy!

It is a lovely circuit! Remind me of Wakefield park.

Taka - yes track 2 .
T9 & 10 is very scary . You can take them in a straight line but are under full brakes within a couple of feet of the tyre wall - yikes .

DVS - pity you couldn't make it - was a great day . Not much of a spectator sport though ...
