Sorry it took sooo long. I had to chase some friends to finally to get it done. In doing so I was able to get it on a sever with a lot of space. It's a large file (58mb) but I'll be worth the download. For all the dial up people, I hope you have Get Right. It'll give you a good look at what goes on at the High Performance Driving Schools that are held at various tracks. You also get a look at what the Bilstein suspension can do and you'll hear my tires sing! So join yours truly and my instructor, Maestro John Berger as we conduct the "Loudmouth Symphony Orchestra" in performing "Lime Rock's 5th" in "SS major". Enjoy! www.x-m.nu/media/Lime_Rock_vid_1.mpg Posted by John01SS (Member # 511) on :
Hey Joey...
Absolutely AWESOME!!! That made my $40 DSL bill for this month totally worth it!
I did the NASA thing at Summit Point this past Spring and it was so much fun. I'm defintely going back next year, after I get a chance to practice my heal and toe on the street.
Again...very cool!

The video was AWESOME dude...... I couldn't hear any of the audio because my PC at work doesn't have the sound drivers on it right now. I will make a copy of it and burn it to a CD and bring it home. Its nice having a T1 at work, download took about 1.5 minutes.

Roll on the gas, straight line braking, slow entrance and early apex fast exit speed, reminds me of my karting school. BTW You had em in the s before the uphill straight. Cool video. Cant really get the feel for how fast your really going, but Im sure top speed was up there. I would approximate average to be around 60-70? am i right??

You got it! Avaerage was around 60-70. I did have the guy in the back straight before the hill but we weren't allowed to pass there. It was only allowed in the front straight. The driver did give me a point-by and I started. Then I realized that I wasn't allowed to pass. Damn!

Awesome!! I was in the car with you. It brought it all back! I got to use a little of what I have been learning going up Skyline. OF course the car helped a bit.

Awesome, Joey I can't wait for Bragg-Smith! Posted by XLR8NSS1 (Member # 1207) on :
an awesom piece of driving! I have had some great experiences in karts doing 50-60 mph, and let me tell ya, its a whole different ballgame. you just have to trust the handling, and go for it. It sometimes sounds like the wheels are gonna come off , but you trust the chassis and keep it stuffed! I love watching the instruction, you can hear how exhilarating it is!!
