In-car video from Summit Point

I was at Summit Point Raceway this past friday. I had a camera inside my car for the first time. It came out pretty decent, though a wide angle lens would be much better. Here is a film from my last session. Its around 90mb (right click and save as)

Nice. I was running in Group 1A. I as the only Silver Evo running in that group. I don't know who all you other Evo guys ended up in 1B but, I was dying to get out there with you guys. Your heat seemed faster to. I kept getting hung up behind cars. In fact as I ended up lapping the field on my last 2 laps

Where else do you run? Solo II or just road courses? Anyway, nice video I forgot my camera!!!

Thank God it dried out. So much more fun in the dry

I remember seeing your car. It seems that a lot of people left after the 1-2 wet sessions. It was probably the smallest run group I have been in at Summit Point. Also people were pretty good about pointing, so it was quite smooth.

Besides track days, I run solo2 events in DC area.

Yeah, the wet was interesting, though i had fun practicing teh 'wet' line at summit - it was the first time I drove there in the rain.

Thanks. BTW did you notice how the Lotus driver 'points' me the wrong way? - on the outside! LOL

Yeah I met Troy there - nice guy. First 2 sessions were a bit tricky due to the rain, but he was driving very well towards the end of the day, considering it was his first time at Summit.

Puckadog - there is a NASA weekend event on Sept 24-25 at Summit Point. Its a MachV sponsored event so there should be plenty of evos and subarus there. It's $299 for both days. Considering that regular 1 day HPDE is $220, it a very good deal - you get an extra day for $80!

Wojo,
What mods are you running? You ate an elise and a z06. That's impressive.
