How not to run a DE- Fontana track day

[Jad]

Am I the only one who can't see the video? It says 'private.'

Looks like it went private recently. I sure wouldn't want anyone to see it if it was me.

The original poster felt the response was unkind and made it private
But nothing ever dies on the internet,not even with voodoo dolls

hey, the instructor was not useless, he did hold the guys glasses

The entire complex is technically the track, so limiting your driving to between the white lines is just leaving time and making it harder to dive-bomb pass.

It is unfortunate that a random line often crosses over 'the' line, otherwise the other drivers on the line would have been pretty safe

You may find yourself behind the wheel of a large automobile...and you may ask yourself.. how do I work this? And you may ask yourself—where is that large automobile? And you may say...my God, how did I get here? And you may ask yourself, am I right, or am I wrong? And you may say to yourself, my God, what have I done? And the [track] days go by... same as it ever was...once in lifetime. [Instructor at 1:20].

Jad...relax. The video was "taken down" as in "made private" within a couple of days of being published. All you missed was some rude language, rather minimalist instructor dialogue with the driver (hand and finger motions accepted), a 360 degree video showing the car's occupants and looking down the track + car stats, lots of curb violations and basically the PDK saving the day. Oh...and a student hitting over 150 on the banked oval. One more "Oh" - both driver and instructor had open face helmets.

Otherwise, what the heck, you didn't miss anything.
