Great vid- what kind of camera did you film it with?
I love the course. I'd be braking early and taking it easy too on a track that dark. I have never run at night, and I am not sure I want to after seeing that vid!
I love the g-force indicator aka rear-view tassle wahahaa.

I don't have any track experience, but I would definitely take the graduation tassel off the rear view mirror. Maybe I'm more easily distracted, but it would really annoy me.
Cool video, looks like fun. That GTR hauls on the straights.

Coming down the main straight, you can brake way harder and later. You can probably shave off about 1-2 seconds right there. Braking harder for shorter periods of time as opposed to braking softer for longer actually keeps the brake temps down, making them last longer.

I've autocrossed in AZ at night, but never done a track at night. That's got to be a little crazy.
