How did this end up on the second page? Here's a lap or two out at Lime Rock on 5/26. I was in a different run group from Jnelso. I tried to take pictures of Jnelso on the track and failed totally, little did I know that my phone's memory was full. That also explains the different viewpoint of this track video because it's from my in car camera not TrackAddict running on my phone!

I think a few of us will be at Thompson on 6/1, and I suppose I'll be pressured into driving the 996 again.... my VW is not getting a lot of runs yet this year.

I'd be good if you wanted to bring the Turbo

Excited to get back to Thompson on Tuesday.

Enjoyed the LR video too !

Wow incredible progress Jason👏, driving is super smooth and fast 💨!

Here is my PB from Grattan over the weekend. These are times well beyond what I thought was possible a year ago. Big effort from driver (data, video study) and car (springs, LSD) are coming together.

He got across. My instructor did hit a deer going into turn 7. Said next time around it wasn’t there.

That track is fast and you are on full attack ! Looks like there are a couple spots where at least one wheel may be in the air.

Awesome vid - confident driving on a fast technical track - Approved !

I really liked you versus the vettes,, keep it up.

Not a lot of wet videos here, Pouring rain before our last session yesterday but it let up in time to get about 10 minutes in. The times I have driven on a wet track I'm amazed at how much grip you still have. Just have to watch for the sheets and standing water. At about 5 minutes I catch a turbo and have about a 3 minute lap.
