I went out to Putnam this past weekend with a new AIM solo 2 lap timer and hero 7, and i've been tinkering with the RaceRender software so there's some video below with GPS data overlaid. I was going 1:24's at this track last spring, hit 1:19 last fall, and after this past weekend I have a new PB of 1:16.8. Unfortunately after only 9 sessions my brand new rear pirelli started getting some spotty wear, which made the grip noticeably worse. I think I could have gone 1:16.0 or better on the second day if the tire held, but it didn't. The tire is pictured below. I'm going back in less than two weeks...looking to hit 1:15
Enjoy the pics and vids!

Full Session, i have no clue why youtube butchered the quality on this one but kept the video above HD. This was uploaded in 1080p and looks great when I watch the mp4 file

Off course...hit a false neutral and thought it died. Didn't want to stay on the race line and get clobbered, so I went off course at probably 70-80mph

Destroyed front, this was before I put the new ones on
9 sessions on this thing and it's compromised, I'm having my suspension adjusted and swapping to Michelin slicks before going back to this track on 8/25
Gopro mirror mount (top left) broke, so I improvised. I'm actually happy I did even though this is basically permanently affixed to my intake now, lol. FWIW if you want a gopro mirror mount for a motorcycle, don't buy one, I've gone through two of them now.
