1:52

1.52.06 best lap from my third outing in the E46 M3 at Sonoma Raceway.
First event held on the new repaved track. Grip was very good and your tires really make some noise!
It was my PB lap, so of course my Gopro ate shit that session.... Only catalyst footage.
Absolutely smashed my old best lap by 4+ seconds (1.56.82). Mainly do to fresh V730's over heat cycled RS4's from last event.
I was on target to beat my F80's PB (1.51.81) several times but never snagged the lap. My optimal was a 1.51 flat.
