The EVO had quite an advantage on the straights and did really solid at 7:40

Props for really accurate rev-matching and a nice save!

Once you know the layout better you'll be able to plan your shifts better.

All in all good driving

KWv3s -that was the first weekend on them, so still dialing them in, 225/255 star specs on stock AP2v1s, comptech intake, resonator delete, and 60kmiles in two years mod

with 1.8 degrees camber front, 2.8 rear, .1 total toe front, .1 total toe rear, and 6.4 caster, I got even wear on the star specs (no camber wear), and the fronts reached the wear bars at the same time as the rear - perfect alignment for my driving in my opinion.

For anyone interested, here is another video from the day before Thanksgiving of my new favorite road I found that day - it's near the Dragon, but I'll never say where. As you can see, had a little trouble with some leaves about half way through. Oopsie.

Obviously, the road was damp, it was about 36 degrees (this is at around 9 in the morning)

Sorry to say but no matter how good you are at driving, screeching tires on a public road is never safe. Take it to the track before you lose it one day.

Hitting the rev limiter for extended periods of time like you did is not faster, nor beneficial...

"Quite possibly the worst driving"... I've seen in a long time...I feel so bad for your car..you know it has more than 2 gears. This site is full of really good drivers and I know they are all shaking their heads.

iono mang.
i think AP1's are geared far better for this i feel restless watching you stay at like 8,000 rpm in 2nd or under Vtec in 3rd.
