That's Darius, I was going to post up the vid but never got a chance to.
BTW, anything under 1:50 on that track is fast. His record in a stock ACR is 1:40.xx, which is nuts.
My brother does 1:47s in an 125 ICC shifter kart.
Darius has a vid there in a BMW S1000RR bike where he is passing the entire field!

In that configuration yes, anything below 1:50 is quick. Unfortunately, a lot of times track days are done with the chicane by T9, which kill the whole back end of the track.
Then again, if you mess up T10 and end up in the wall, you'll be glad that you had to deal with the chicane because otherwise, you get to t10 at a buck 20 or more and the wall is just too close.
Sears Point is my favorite track and I wish I could be as quick as Darius there but I think the best I could ever get was 1:53 or so (without the chicane) on my ZX400R during my AFM days.
Gotta love the carousel.
Drifting in a car setup to stick = big brass ones

And that , boys and girls , is what 3 seconds a lap faster than a GT 3 looks like, ha!!!!!

My god that has to be the best pass ever!
And after that he just runs away...GT3 must have backed off a bit...probably scared the crap outta him.

Thanks everyone. I've never seen them run the chicane for car day's only bikes. On the bike configuration which includes another chicane at turn 1 before you go back up the hill I ran a 1.42 on my s1000rr and a 1.40.03 in the ACR. In this video you can see the bike configuration. It also cuts out a good section of turn 11. They do that for safety.

Holy_____! I think we should be sending this guy to the Ring for the record attempt! I'd even donate again!

That's how to drive an ACR-E. My GTC arrives from Woodhouse this coming week.........it is one of the reasons I don't buy a ACR-E.....I could not give the car justice.

Wow, pretty cool Darius. Not sure if you know the guy in the black porsche, would be awesome if he has a video from your 2nd drift.

Its 3 secs plus over a 991 GT3 RS. The description says 991 GT3 so its worse than 3 secs for the regular GT3 hehe. Great vid Darius. That ACR just looks and sounds incredible going by.

Easy there...it was cool but it was also a 40mph drift so not THAT cool other than it was past a GT3...which makes it uber kool!

I've got to believe your mom was't riding with you in that session.....;)
Excellent car control. I've never driven Sonoma but from what I read above, you are a very fast driver. Can't help but wonder how much faster your laps would be without scrubbing time due to the lost traction? Or was this an older set of tires?
Congrats on some great driving!!!
(Regardless of any possible lost lap time, it looked cool as hell)

I was just doing that to show off a little in front of the porsches. On my fastest laps getting the car sideways will cost you time. My fastest lap I got the car a little loose and I'm sure I would have got into the 39's had I not slid it that little bit

I would love to but they would be much better off getting someone who knows that track. I've been driving and riding this track for 25yrs now which makes me feel old as shit.

I believe the AFM was also running the T1 chicane as well for awhile but I don't know if they still do.
That's a blazing lap, you definitely got skills. I did a bunch of track days with Zoom Zoom and I even bought the season pass one year because it's a cool organization.
Those BMW are insane though!
Great riding and driving dude, you're a beast.
