Here's the Sunday morning practice session, TT Red run group. This was in perfect morning conditions: great temp, clear skies, good traction.

I like the last letters of this link: "AAAAAAAA" How appropriate!

Load your videos, too. This could be a great thread.

As for this vid: "Let the excuses begin!"

- "If I woulda caught that last apex, Mike C. would have been mine!!!!"


And ... note the attempt to immitate Mark R., and Steve G driving styles.

Timed Runs video being processed now.

Nice driving Dan! You totally nailed the infield and I agree with EriK K. comment that a wider entry into turn 1, hang your attachments out the window, and apex turn 2 at 130mph would make these textbook laps. Turn 2 is the only place I could catch you. You had me everywhere else.

Kudos to Dan, Jad, Don Middleton, and Phil Strong - stellar drives for the money laps!

A couple of interesting videos with the side-wheel view camera posted on our WebSite;

Go to the "Videos" Page, and click on "Cal Speedway" on the Left.

.... And if you liked the practice, you'll really enjoy the Timed Runs. I got a little loose, and crazy. Plenty of hoots and fist pumps in-car.

Kudos to Paul Young for being the "Gentleman Racer." In the garage he gave me huge congrats and high-fives. Thanks, Paul!

Nice recovery at 125 mph!!

hi Dano, fun videos thanks for sharing!
Are you wearing board shorts or special fire proof driving shorts?
Stoked! Free balling it on the high banks.
See ya at Chuckwalla.

Whoa! Great car control, Greg. That was pretty darn crazy.

Thanks, Dave. Yeah, I noticed my voice dropped an octave after this weekend. Next year may see some more speed through 1 and 2.

Very nice save, Vic Elford said turn the car downhill when in trouble on a bank.
You were able to throw a couple right turn corrections and walked away.
The risk of the same happening to me keeps me off the roval.

Wow, "fun" as in scary, right?. I bet you had a hard time keeping that out of your mind in the following sessions.

That's major fishtailing. My blood pressure jumped just watching it.

Great car control.

My first high-speed run in my car. I've never driven this speed in my life!

Nice driving, Mark. Your pass at turn 5 was ... tight. I'm sure Smilin' Dave would agree.

Your wiggle at 7:30 frame was vintage Rondeau control. Very nice.

I still can't believe how fast you can make that car go. Truly, you have the art of carry-speed refined. Keeping up/catching Boxters in a 944S (S is for Super-fast??) is just amazing to me. To Boxter owners ... it's just wrong.

We'll play at WSIR, sorry I'll miss Chuckwalla Counter-Clockwise.
