Default TWS track guys

Just wondering what you've been able to pull at TWS in an S2k, shod with R comps.

Thanks.

*scratch head* Y'know, I've never timed myself there. I run with the top up, and haven't come up with a good place to mount the Hot Lap receiver.

I think a stock S2000 would do a 2.05 with R compounds and a good driver. An average driver should do around a 2.10.

TypeSH - were you the guy in the black SH at the last JEH event? You had garage space, roll cage, and an Auto Pro (I think) driving jacket?

Yep that is me. I have a S2000 now as well but I am not going to track it for a while. I will be club racing in SCCA this year with the Prelude.

Schatten, haven't been timed. Just trying to see what the experienced guys are pulling in their S2k's. I timed a friend doing 2:08's, in an E36 similarly set up to mine.

I was in a buddy's track car (E36 M3, H-stock club racer) there a few weeks ago; he was pulling sub 2 laps. So damn fast I had to clean out my draws when I went out with him.

I am a long way from a model driver, needing a lot more practice.. but even not hitting the mark on every turn I can put together a string of 2:09's on R-compound tires. I would think a better driver could get consistent 2:07's and the talented guys 2:05 or better.
