Enjoy!

 

wow!!! that looked like so much fun!
wish organizers would start doing events like this

does the video truly depict the level of darkness? or can you actually see alot more

 

It was brighter than the video, but some parts of the track are still pretty dark, great driving as usual!

 

I ran that event and had an absolute blast. After the first night session I got out of my S2K with the biggest $h!t eating grin on my face. I really want to do it again. The lights worked a lot better than I thought they would.

 

Man I wish I could have gone...seems like too much fun!

 

How did flagging work? Were there flaggers? Could you see them?

 

Corner workers were there and supposedly had glow-sticks...there were no offs or yellows during the 3 night sessions I ran so didn't see any of them...

 

That was some awesome driving Mike! I really enjoyed your vid with Tommy.

Here's mine with some less spectacular driving. Damn Windows Movie Maker messed up my sound.

Amazing

 

Corner workers were present at all the usual spots and also had high intensity glow sticks for the night sessions. Yellow waved horizontally was a local yellow flag, while a yellow waved vertically was a full course caution. Blue glowstick was the equivilent of a full course red, but we were instructed to drive in at a safe pace instead of stopping at the nearest manned corner due to night time visibility issues. Blue was specifically used to accommodate colorblind drivers.

I think the night sessions made everyone very cautious; I did not see a single off during the night sessions.

Most corners had the apex's lit. Additionally, there were a LOT more cones than usual placed on the track, but after driving at night, the cone placement totally made sense; the organizers had apparently gone out the night before and were driving the track to make sure cones were strategically placed so that you could see every turn.

Going into the esses was rather unnerving, as you can't see what's coming, even with headlights on because of the crest going in. They were unable to place a light there, as the risk of someone hitting it would be too great, regardless of which side it was on. However, they were clearly marked with cones, and after ~5 laps, I got more comfortable going into the esses at speed.
