Great sounding video. I have PSI on stock cat back, and its loud against pit wall, but this is nice sound capture.
About the driving - Here is my never driven it, back seat driver take..Apply salt liberally...
it looks like you can go faster through the first sweeper, stay left and open up the entry and late apex the first turn.
The chicane complex you're pulling under 1 lateral g, I bet you have more grip here to use - go faster! Same through sweeper #2 before the hard right hander and use all the track, you should be on power through that entire right turn throttle steering out to the edge of the track.
Back straight you're babying it! a lot more speed there to get through those sweeping chicanes and try not to punch the throttle at the end.
Last turn before pit straight looks like a late apex where you want to get the car pointed down track quickly and almost oversteer it through, you should experiment with a wider line early and get back to power mid corner to improve your top speed down the front straight. Also looks like you lost traction right at the cone perhaps its track defect..
Are you driving it 2wd?
Nice laps..
