X3 race track time

Hey all! Just wanted to share my couple of laps on the race track here in Calgary. Was fortunate enough to get a few laps in and thought I would share incase you never get a chance to get out on a track. These were lead\follow session, so this was not a all out time attack. I was overall pretty happy with how mine did and considering Porsches, Corvette's and various fancy car's behind me weren't keeping up. They should have, but likely they didn't have any track time before. I still thought they would have kept up better though. The lead car was a z51 C8 Corvette.

Stock brakes definitely were hot and shuddering at the end of the sessions, there's a lot of weight to manage. Power felt good and the trans tune xHP sure felt great going thru the gears.

Session 1

Session 2

Do you have an ECU tune as well?
What tires do you run?
