Bone Stock Elantra N POV Drive at Sonoma Raceway!

First track day in the EN was a huge success!
Went out with no expectations, really just feeling out the car and what it's capable of as delivered from the factory.

I don't have enough good things to say. The eLSD is like magic coming out of the corners, and and the turn-in on throttle lift made it much easier to correct any early throttle inputs resulting from my lack of patience mid-corner 😂 overall I think this is going to be a great platform to learn on as a beginner.

Self-critiques for the day: I was (unknowingly) babying the brakes until pretty much the end of the last session, and after reviewing footage I caught myself coasting into almost every braking zone. My line felt okay in sections, but I struggled to string them together for an entire lap. I forget how you really have to be 100% locked-in the full lap; 1 second of distraction is enough to throw you off-line and ruin your next entry.

Overall I'm happy with how I did, but I'm well aware that I'm nowhere near the limit of what this car is capable of. Regardless, I had a ton of fun and am looking forward to continuing to develop as a driver and my platform.
