So I've been out the last couple times the track was opened... First time out with the new car, I set it on the track completely box stock setup and it was suggested that I race in the novice class, that was a good idea as I was about 2 seconds off the pace of the sportsman 21.5 class. I learned a lot about the car, went home and made some changes (mainly softening up the front suspension a little bit, also a little heavier diff oil), came back for the practice last weekend, and those changes gave me a bit more than 2 seconds (also turned ~400 laps of practice).
Looking forward to next weekend out at the track!
