I thought your car broke, but realized it was just the audio. Too bad that didn't make it to the pits! :banghead:

Whew! Nice evasive maneuver Mark. Just opened up your arc and chose a little rally in the dirt over metal on metal. A T-bone at 9 would have been more than just some scratched paint :shock: .

Holy Cow! I had to change my shorts after just watching. :oops: That was some really nice, cool, calm driving Mark. I'd say you and Jackie were definitely slicing and dicing out there. Glad no one was hurt and no cars damaged.

I'm hoping for some real fun with just a little less excitement at the next TT I drive. :wink: Oh, and congratulations, Mark, on setting a new track record in GP class, and finishing 9th in BRI. NICE! Okay Ms. "GP Queen" Corwin, you up for some serious competition? :burnout:

Good driving Mark!
Looked like Jackie was on the brakes (both feet in!!) or that could have been UGLY

That was close!! Glad everyone came out ok there.

But Mark, I am going to have to teach you the proper music for race videos... What was that? 70's disco?? :lol:

Hey Poppa Andrews, I think that's what the kids these days call a dance mix. You'll probably find it on your daughters younger friends ipod.

Dan, Remember back in the 50's when that newfangled Rock n' Roll came out and you hated it? :lol:

I was suprised at the song when it showed up on the video. I tried to put my own music to it, but Youtube doesn't allow anything that is copyrighted. I chose the first song that was the same length as the video. Oh well. It's a lot better than the sound of two cars crashing together. :shock:

I think Jackie was both feet in and the right one was pumping the brakes trying to get them to work. :banghead:

Marie, the sound didn't convert on the video correctly. It was like watching a badly dubbed kung fu movie, so I changed it to music.

Wow, who's the man with the quick hands?
:)
you even ended up on the track facing the right direction just like the "big boys" do.

very nice recovery from a potentially nasty situation.
this video was a very nice primer for driving WS.
