Thanks guys! Fastest lap was indeed a 1:49.5. I probably could/should have done high 1:47s had I had more clean track that weekend and actually strung together a decent lap. I don't have 1 down yet and am not terribly confident with 5. One big thing that helps is cutting the corner at 3 and hitting the curb- not everyone is willing to do that, which makes sense. It's hard on the car, and also easier in mine with the cushy stock suspension. I'll be in DE 3 next time (mostly faster cars, passing with point-bys anywhere on the track), so I should have more clean track and plenty of chance to improve my time.

I've also spent a lot of time working the start stand at Road Atlanta and have seen some nasty incidents in 12 and the front stretch, including a 997 Turbo into the outside wall coming out of 12. Car ended up on top of the the tire barriers. Driver walked away (they always have when I have been a witness, fortunately).
