Default Targa at the track

I took the targa to the track today and shot some video with my new GoPro. I thought the targa lovers would get a kick out of the view (of the clouds).


Unfortunately, I think this will be the last time my 993 sees track time (to be replaced by a dedicated track car).

I dont track my car so I'm not familiar with all the systems, but that telemetry data (especially the corner # and speed callout) is great for video.

There are some really sophisticated data systems out there. I use what seems to be the most popular option for beginners. It's just an iPhone app called Harry's Lap Timer. You can see it attached to the windshield. I've added on an external GPS for accuracy and the GoPro for better video of my hands.

Looking good! Nice smooth inputs on the wheel - the glass roof looks awesome.

The roof seem to be solid! No whistling noise!
