im working on getting some of the Vids up.

 

sweet vids andrew, did you get by your buddy in the lotus?

 

yeah i passed him up. i got more vids just need to load them

 

forgot about this Vid....poor CTS-V

 

finally got some videos uploaded. i only had 2 sessions on video cause i only had 1 tape. each video can only be 10 minutes long so i sectioned each session into two videos. and i have only 3 of the 4 videos uploaded so far.

here they are :
session 3 video 1
session 3 video 2
session 4 video 1
session 4 video 2 (me following the ferrari)


enjoy!

 

Man the one lap you had to chase me down I had to go the hot pits!! CRAP!

The videos looks really smooth, like you are just puts around the track!! The only way you can tell you are going fast is the amount of people you are passing!

 

haha, after reviewing the tape, i feel like i was to early in braking on just about every turn, and to late to get back on the throttle out of every turn. i know in the last session i was definately going faster (not on tape) because i hit a higher gear in many of the straights.

 

with the rough runoff, I was braking early for every turn as well, maybe that explains why I didnt boil the fluid this time...

 

For sure... and it is very unnerving to be braking into a corner you can't see.... I never got over that!

 

Here's the one short video I got with Justin's camera:

kevin were u shifting down to 2nd?

 

Kevin, I hand timed one of your laps in session 4 @ 2:09. That's not too shabby

I wish I had vid/logs from my later sessions. I'm sure I cut off time... In the data logs I have, I show a best of around 2:10-2:11.

 

in session three i had a 2:06, 2:07, and a few back to back 2:08's


oh and i love your videos goofy! the overlay is sweet, i bet it really helps improve your driving if you watch it over and over and see where to improve

 

yeah, i was in second for the big 180 degree turn in the bottom of the ditch going up hill.

 

I did a bit of digging... the Vorshlag LS1 powered M3 ran 1:57.4 last year. I think we need more practice to get to that level But it's also a 2500# car! That's a lot of weight for my tubby car to give up!
