I did my quickest lap of the Ring so far. Official time was 8:07, and I lost 3-4s on traffic, particularly early in the lap. I also screwed up my entry in Bergwerk, which cost me exit speed for the long uphill straight, and I slowed down too much for Mutkurve. These 2 mistakes cost me another 3s or so. I think this could have been a 7:5X lap otherwise.
I will attempt again next year.
Also mad respect to the Miata!
