Default 20 June Friday At The Track Videos

Here's some video of the 20 June FATT morning instructor session. I didn't run the pm session because I corded a tire in the first session:

This is a busy little clip with lots of other cars: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bTRchrjQdNw

This one features a Porsche, 3 Miatas and an unidentified race car: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xN8Hw6-RGXc

Watched both. I didn't take note of lap times, but it seemed like you were making good time. Hopefully, I'll be back on track in July. Thanks for reminding me what it looks like.

I love watching your videos....

but turns 4 and 9. you can go flatout in 4 and no brake (probably flat out) in 9.

Amazing stuff! So that was you racing yesterday in the stingray race! I was actually walking thru the paddock hoping you'd be by your car.

What did those two civic hatches have? I saw them in the paddock as well, they were FAST!

No, that wasn't me racing on Saturday, I was instructing the HPDE on the Jefferson Circuit. The video is from Friday's FATT.

Skip,

My 23rd lap was a 1:28:2, which is a personal best for the Main Circuit.

Cale,

I know I should be able to go into Turn 4 without braking, but I just can't do it. I'm already hitting 94mph at the apex. I'll have to ride with you or keith and see it done first.

I am running flat through Turn 9 on some of the laps, but the car was pushing beause of the front tires going off. I put the splitter on last week so hopefully the new NT01 fronts will stick better.

on turn 9 I think the 255s help alot. Im not getting any understeer and a hint of oversteer.

Keith was coaching me through turn 4... He was having me short shift into 5th right after 3 and I think that helped make up a bunch of time. I do have 4.57s though...

Do you have any pictures of the new splitter installed???? I really want to see it!
