yes that's the track. The "expert" guys average 16-17 sec.
I drove for 5 minutes without crashing and was trying to be consistent. Battery charged at 9.2A... my average lap was 22 sec.
Now, when I charged my batts at 15A.... my average lap was 19 sec ...again driving for 5 minutes without crashing.
BTW.... experience wise... this is my 3rd time at the track after 15 years .
