Did you get to the bottom of why you had no brake pedal?

See you at the ETD at LS I'm going on both the 8th and 9th

Hah, thanks! I think I am just really comfortable with my car. However, the continued and detailed improvement is really fun!

I am honestly not 100% sure. On the video you can see throttle open at 20% through the entire turn...almost like it was stuck there. I had a feeling like the pedal went to the floor, but perhaps I pressed the brake and throttle pedals at the same, and the ECU allowed both to be applied/prioritized at the same time. Other than that, I cannot explain it, as the brakes were amazing all event before and after that. Sonoma is too much to process all at the same time

What will you be driving at ETD? I am putting my passenger seat in to give my wife a ride!

Yes sir I'll be there. Sweet! I'll come over and say hi. If you recall I parked my lotus next to you in the garage at this last Sonoma ETD.

Exclusive Track Days put together a pretty neat video of my car from the last event! Just wanted to share, as it's kind of neat.

...or is it a 360 cam from which they are cropping the footage?

Yeah, it is just the GoPro 360. It uses multiple cameras to record different angles, then during editing it stitches a spherical, globe like, image that you can rotate. It is a nifty feature, but the quality of the images is a bit lacking, which is why I use the normal GoPro for recording laps.

That is a fun video. Nice mix of prep, standing shots and track / driving shots. Thxs for sharing...

Thanks! It's just something different and fun.

Last event was at Laguna with Exclusive Trackdays and it was all about giving rides to a few people. As always, it was a wonderful event and the car performed without hickups. Likely my last Laguna day for a long time!






I did catch some funny videos of the passenger's faces throughout the sessions; was a great experience. Back at home it was day for a Mother's Day car clean-up! The whole family participated







Finally nice and clean!




Time for fresh fluids, new tires and Thunderhill with PDC is up next. Open track with 93F! Let's see if a new PB can happen.
