Also spotted this silly red thing with uber concave wheels.

I hope so, because it looked 100% toast. It was a tight corner but there’s a good 8’ of pavement beyond the exit curbing; I’m really not sure how they got into that much trouble.Quote:

The guys that were behind him said that his loaded rear wheel got up on the rumble strips and he tried to save it with throttle. Didn't work.Quote:

First of all, it was bumpy as hell. There’s a huge dip at T1 into the infield, which isn’t ideal because there’s a concrete wall on the outside of that turn. There are actually a lot of concrete walls in the infield, and I admittedly was fairly uncomfortable in certain sections. The driving line through the infield isn’t super obvious, which really left it up to a lot of trial and error. There’s another huge dip right before the infield exit, which is off-camber and again there’s a concrete wall. The banking is unbelievably bumpy, I can’t imagine how that would feel at 190-200mph.Quote:

The weirdest part is how useless your side mirrors are on the banking. The driver side shows nothing but the apron, and the passenger side just gives you a nice view of the sky.
All that’s to say it was interesting, and I’m glad to have driven it, but I will gladly be sticking to traditional road courses going forward. The exception being that I really want to drive the Rolex course at Daytona.
Here’s a couple pictures my pops took. I need to teach him how to use a real camera instead of his phone.
Coming out of 3a into 3b. Turn 3b is where the E92 ate it.

It's usually too bright and too hot out when I get to go. lol

When we started it was hot as balls. Our last run was at 8pm, and that was only because of the two wrecked cars; I think it was supposed to be a 7:20 final session. The M3 (which I’m thinking was actually Interlagos, not LMB) required an EV so cleanup was very slow. I’m glad it was darker though because (1) it was a cool experience, and (2) the tires were a lot less greasy. Greasy tires + concrete walls instead of runoff areas = occasionally clenched buttholes.Quote:

Unfortunately Botond lost a track session due to the snag he ran into but in the end everything turned out well and his ZHP was back in the game... I took a few photos showing Botond tearing up the track... :)

Today was a long day since Botond and I left the Calabogie area this morning and had to deal with the Monday afternoon rush hour traffic... what fun to be had!!! anyway, I have some more pics to process but right now I'm dead tired from the trip... long drive but fun.
Looks great

A lift in the outdoor sun. That makes for visual clarify so much better!!
It’s so much fun. It adds another dimension to the senses. We’re so used to seeing photos from our standard height so being able to see the world from another angle brings more creativity and inspiration to how beautiful life is!Quote:
