Should I bring my spare tires (the OEM ones) and a jack? Kinda nervous about what happened last time I was. When I cleaning my wheels I could see that they got banged up lol

I have enough space to bring the tires and extra stuff but the jack is heavy af ?

I also agree on not doing the track prep the day before. My first track day I stayed up until 1AM (woke up at 4AM) dealing with my car.

I messed up and was under huge time constraints so I really need to plan accordingly.

I messed up using my brake bleeder and squirted brake fluid everywhere the week before and somehow damaged the Ebrake actuators so yeah. Im just going to keep it simple and use the 2 person method lol ?

And I'm not sure it's related but I'm sure it's some early adopter issue. I was one of the first batches to ship. I guess we will see. Either way it's coming out. I don't want to buy another kit and troubleshoot it myself.
Well thank you for doing the work for the rest of us

Wires at least have continuity so it's not that I guess? Who knows

Also, is there a way to import tracks into LogR? I want to use the LogR to track my laptime but the track isn't listed

There is a way to set your location and the direction of the track in logr. I had to find a video to do it. It worked fine for me at myocal track ?

You basically use navigation to position the start finish line and the direction of travel. It's not intuitive at all ?

LogR is amazing and sucks at the same time.

It never synced properly to videos, takes a long time to even create a video and you can't export the data.

Those of you running the Hybrid S HANS device - is the quick release worth it? I've read mixed reviews. Thinking of just doing the standard M6 post style release.

I just have the standard, see no reason for quick release on this, I just remove the whole helmet with hans attached when I need to.

Thanks, that's what I'm seeing too. I'll save the $60 or so. Put it toward my Advans ?

I never understood the quick release, is it so you can keep wearing the hans and take the helmet off? I don't want to wear my hans around. Or is it in case of emergency? but then like I can take the whole thing off pretty quick so I dunno. Maybe someone with more experience can enlighten us

There’s a quick release? I just use the regular post. Sometimes I do struggle to unclip from the helmet. Then I get a little antsy and claustrophobic. My fingers gets sweaty and then I really have a hard time unclipping where I’m ready to yank the helmet off…
