Pics/Vids from my Road America Adventure!

Lapping day with the NW Shelby Club @ Road America, Elkhart Lake, WI...














The videos:

Hard braking downhill from 130 into a 90deg left hander.
Same corner, different lap.
Uphill outta 14, car goes out of frame, but listen to the sound...

If you ever have a chance to run at a full track, do it! Blows AutoX's and spirited street driving out of the water... whole new experience!

dam you!

I love going up to road america. I should be driving my car on the track during the lemans race. I think it is like 50 dollars for 45 minutes on the track during the lunch hour. They have pace cars tho, but i just want to drive on that track!

I bet you has a blast....
Thats where I saw this thing drift through there at over 70 MPH sideways entry, up and then throught the hairpin fullthrottle back up the hill.
My buddie Ryan and Ed are photographers, I got to go behind the baracades up close and personal at the D1 driftevent there in GA. It was insane!

Find a club that's hosting an event and register on their website.

I was up there with the Northwoods Shelby Club. They're pretty cool guys!
