HOD frowns upon timing of any sort, but Nizam used to run around 1:56 with that car. It wasn't fully sorted out this time around (ran out of time), but best guess around 2:00. I had to back off a tiny bit.
The Kumho V710 are not quite as confidence inspiring as the Hoosiers we've used before, and I found out in the 2nd session when pushing harder, that the ABS wasn't working!  Had a nice tank slapper approaching the gravel trap in turn 2. Got off the brakes instantly, gave it a tickle of gas, things straightened enough to where I could get back on the brakes and make a *very late* turn-in. Whew! But overall the car was a train, hammering along all day without complaint.
