Default Found some video someone shot of me on the track



This was cool to stumble upon, shows me leaving a Skyline in the dust IN the car's defence the owner has no clue how to drive at speed. Another great day spent at the track !!

Dang, you ran away from them. Did you just find that video online and it happened to be your car?

That looks like a great place to play! Love all those elevation changes. Really can make things interesting.

That's because you saw it in winter mode when I swap back to OEM suspension. This is "coilovers mode".

Yup ! Even though its not super fast its one of my favorite tracks because of all the corners and elevation changes. The guy who owns this track is super cool, he's a former SuperMoto champion from France, relatively young around late 30's. Between lapping sessions he'll walk up to you and suggest better lines or point out mistakes you are making so you can have more fun.

Wow I wish we had something like that where I live. There's nowhere for us to have a track day.
