(9th fastest lap 20190817)

This is it. The track finally cleared, and traffic wasn't too bad. But did we make it #Under9?

Let me know what you think in the comments!

Car specs:

Drivetrain:
Bone stock engine.
ZW30 gearbox and Torsen LSD. It has different ratios: taller final, hence why I don't need to shift into 5th, and a closer 1st and 2nd in comparison with the original gearbox.

Suspension:
RS*R Ti2000 springs
KYB Excel-g dampers
Whiteline rear sway bar
Poliurethane bushings

Tires:
F:195/50R15 Advan AD08RS (new compound to comply with the new EU efficiency ruling). 1.8bar
R:205/50R15 Advan AD08R. 2.3bar (raised the pressure on the rear slightly 0,2bar compared to the first day, to get a bit of rotation in some areas and worked very nicely)

Brakes:
Bone stock replacement parts (rotors, pads and DOT4 fluid). Not even braided brake lines. This setup had been ok at the track until arriving at the Nurburgring. In the previous tracks I've driven the car the speed was never this high, but here this cheap setup was really struggling and had to manage them every lap at the harder braking areas. I wish I had my Winmax pads, as I did on my 86.

Alignment:
F: 6deg caster, -1,6ish deg camber, 0.05ish toe in.
R: - 1,2ish deg camber, 0.15ish toe in.

Weight:
Measured 2500lbs/1100kg with me in it and a full tank. Subtract the weight of the spare wheel, jack and toolset which I've removed for the track.
