LOOSE BOLT! Almost cost me a Podium! Thunderhill East Time Attack with LightSpeed

In this video, I take my BMW M4 F82 to Thunderhill East for the Lightspeed Time Attack and pull off a 1st place win with a best lap time of 1:57.58! Running on Bridgestone RE-71RS 295/35R18 squared tires, I pushed the car hard, but high track temperatures and heat soak started to cause overheating after just two laps. Despite the challenges, I know there’s still more performance to unlock-I could’ve hit a 1:56 if the car hadn’t been heat-soaked.
I’m also considering a new tune to help manage temps and extract even more power next time. The last time I raced here was in November 2021, when it was much cooler, so this heat definitely added an extra layer of difficulty.
Stick around for lap breakdowns, insights on the car’s setup, and the changes I’ll be making to improve performance. If you’re into time attack racing or BMW M builds, you won’t want to miss this!
