My Time Attack in Houston video
I'm here in Houston for the Texas Supra Meet. On Thursday they held a DE with the fastest of the advanced drivers competing in a Time Attack event at the end of the day. Here are some pictures and vid of the day. I qualified 4th out of about 24 and ended up finishing 6th in the Time Attack session due to having some pretty gnarly brake fade.
1st lap is a warm up lap, 2nd two are my flying laps.

Honestly I was ready to turn it up to 27lbs but the brake fade would have just killed me... pedal to the floor from braking from ~140 twice and 130 once was bad enough on 20lbs of boost.. i can't imagine trying to brake from 150+ twice with no brakes on 27psi, haha...

if you help pay for expenses i would be more than happy and tag along and see if i can help you lower your times :)
i saw a couple of mistakes that im pretty sure if you improved you could of lowered your times! i understand the fact that they were only 3 laps lol
just pm me so i can point them out to you. you have a good idea of the turning radius. you have any previous experience on a road course?

Thanks for sharing. I think Time Attack is pretty awesome, yet it's so hard on your car. At least you know what you need to do to improve your car. Good Job

Im positive after watching the video, trevor realizes the mistakes he made. Under the circumstances of brake fade, and pushing your car to the limit after driving it 1000 miles away from home also may have played a slight factor. If it was a 2 day time attack event Im positive his times wouldve been faster.

lol, i wouldnt say that, but i i made my way on a few monoplazas and touring cars when i was younger!
i just love being able to go to the track and watching cars go around (it sucks even more not to be able to drive the car lol)
since i moved out here its been hard to go to a track for me and stuff lmao,
but hands down favorite activity is karting, thats the best way to learn and no lie when yuo get on a 125cc rotax or tag (no shifter karts) you feel like your on an F1 lol, and shifter karts are worse lol youll piss your pants
id do anything to go to the track
