Went to the NEPA TNT at pocono yesterday afternoon (easily worth the $20). Show up>work for an hour>get as many runs as possible for an hour>go home.

Positive note, the car stayed together just fine. Generally things were good. I got about 8 runs in I think, mostly making sure things weren't rubbing in a bad way and messing with air pressures. Initially the car felt loose and poor traction but I finally got the tire pressures dialed in, ~23 front/ 25 rear, it felt more balanced and pretty well even heat. I had forgot I turned the shocks full stiff so I could have a good starting point to soften when I got there. I didn't change them until the last run and they very much balanced out the car. There is definitely still room for tweaking but overall a successful trial. The car is still a blast to drive, the driving was poor. My best time was a 55.9, the SMF nationals winning civic was running ~54.6. So I have a lot of time to pick up.

TL:DR Car did fine. Suspension tweaks were made to late. Driver sucks at driving.
