    Given that FDs here make anything from 140-155 HP, I'm still mighty proud I bagged second with just 82 HP from my GD1 Jazz. :D
    It's da man, not da machine...

    Thanks thanks!

    Er, I think it should be the other way round though - the GD Jazz weighing half as much as an FD? The smaller car does weigh at least 200kg less

    What the?! haha! Your right I got it all mixed up! Good driving again sir! Reminds me of Sentra N.As w/ SR20DE edging out Sentras w/ SR20DETs in Subic also. You guys are good drivers.

    Batangas Racing Circuit - February 28, 2010.
    First time on BRC.
    Nothing changed on the car except for Tanabe brake pads, the orange variety.

    Beginning lap time was 2:28.6.

    With tweaking and lessons, my personal best lap time by the afternoon was 2:20.8.
    My instructor drove my car before we went home and he did a fastest lap of 2:17.21 before cooking my brake pads and overheating my tires.

    Pictures to follow. I love double-apex turns!

    Don was present yesterday, but my instructor was his fellow PTCC driver JP Castellano. Don's style is unique and very hard to copy/learn - according to JP, sometimes his driving goes beyond textbook racecraft wisdom. Maybe not yet for a weekend trackday racer like me, a shame I didn't get to have him drive

    Thanks for the kind words sir!

    JP offers basic lessons, PhP2000/head. Lots of time spent shotgun. We took turns running my car and seeing where to brake, turn and correct the line.

    Don offers advanced lessons, PhP5000/head. He'll do a track walkabout too so bring sunscreen

    HTHs
