LOL, well 2:115 being a second faster then the next guy and coming in second is not too bad! How did you like your night driving? I did not have the balls to go flatout..
Sounds like you had about the same weekend as me; 10AM Saturday. My last session of this winter at Sebring. Did a 2:175 the first session but I could not stop the car because I was out of brake pads, metal to metal on the front pads and the pedal went too low. Changed pads.
Forgot to gas up with 5 minutes to start of this last session! Drove to the on-site fuel station to see 10 cars in line.. Raced into Sebring (benefit of a license plate), gassed up, raced back while putting on my helmet and seat belts, did not get arrested.
At the gate to get back on track, another 5 cars in line. I blow the horn like a madman douce bag. Pissed off one PCA official, but cars moved and a slip through, leaving him yelling at me. I have to find him to apologize one day.
I go over the bridge onto the track another traffic jam!! I drive through the grass around parked cars and more pissed looking PCA officials at the tech station and finally get to the pitlane. I go out, I know I go home after this session; My last chance to do better than a 2:175!! Got on track ran opening lap and got one clean lap before traffic. I held back a bit, so a very conservative lap, not too much curb, pretty clean lap but left easily half a second on the table. I know I can do a 2:16 on RA1 NT01 tires by watching my lap as well as my TBL of 2:158..Maybe next year --
Here's the lap
Sorry for the hyjack

LOL. Nice job. I'm amazed at how close your street car comes to our laps. Not mine, but some of the guys running out there. Even some 5 cars.
Driving at night was blue balls. I had never done it in the dark like that. I mean way dark. Seeing that huge wreck with the TRG car got me a little wired too. He hit that wall at 100 plus easy. Tires every where. I eventually did the sweeper flat out, but it took a while. During the day it was easy. Night, not so much. A 2:11 in the day becomes a 2:13 plus at night.

My 2:175 became a 2:21 LOL, some guyes around me were faster, but I was not sure enough where the turn in was into T17 for example.
Normally I look at "the big picture" going into turns, I am terrible with looking for marks, like what cones I brake at etc, but I got a quick schooling about that in the dark :-)
Please load some dark video if you can, love to see that speed in the dark. You got balls :-) I cant wrap my brain around 2:13 in the dark geez...
