Default New track video, enjoy! :)

I just got back from another Thunderhill DE, had an awesome time in spite of some rain. I took some forum member's advice and worked on being smooth and was able to shave almost 6 seconds off of my last THill DE . Enjoy!

That's a terrific improvement! Looks like a great track. Ours are all flat. I noticed on the ASK THE COACH thread on the Racing & Drivers Education forum,that pro coaches often respond to requests for tips if you post your video on that thread and ask for input. I'm working to get data / video system in my car to try it out.

Looks like you both had a great time! A couple of those blind apexes are unnerving on the video
M3 you should show us a few laps next time!

Nice! What camera/GPS device/software were you using to capture that?

you're so quick on the shift that I didn't notice you change gears one time

Nothing fancy, just my iphone 4s with a windshield mount and Harry's Laptimer Pro App

Add some OBD info such as the GoPoint bluetooth for the telemetry and you're all set. Nice lap

Touché

This was my first time with the C4S on the track ( I just upgraded from a 986S ) and I decided I focus on the handful of car and let the PDK do all the shifting (blush)

Btw: I only managed 1 1/2 sessions :-( I trashed my right rear tire in the lap following my video. Just learned the hard way hat tire pressures in a 997 are different from a Boxster....


Quick Reply: New track video, enjoy! :)
