One of the fellows had an on board camera, and was behind me for the warmup and 1st lap. Here's his video.

Awesome. Like you lines through the corners and how you use the whole road.

Looks like the video car had a moment when he early apexed one of the corners and had to do a little "extra" steering on the exit to not run out of pavement.

The Camaro was too much car for the track/group. I was running up on others a lot.

One of the instructors almost planted it in the Armco during the "passing" demonstration session. He was "drafting" in 2nd gear, punched it as he pulled out to pass and the tail stepped out on him. [Eek!]

Same old story that we all constantly experience, few, including enthusiasts, realize how good these cars are. [Frown]

Tuque, solar fleece and windbreaker outside ...inside the car was perfect. [Smile]
