No Video of the "Train" that likely caused the road block... BUt I must say I've driven several thousand miles on lots of tracks and never hit the speed I did yesterday..


Enjoy the Video!

Nice run! Cars sound great.

You guys should be able to go online in a couple days and buy some great photos. I saw the photographers in their usual spots. IIRC, Killboy is one on them on the TOD. I forgot the other photo site name.

Here is one of the links for Killboy:

Dave - killer vid! Great to meet everybody, killer day! The old targa did her best - no brake fade, ran cool the whole time. Now I really want to purchase some serious GT3 firepower.....

Very nice work on the video.

Sounds like a day not to be missed. Sorry I did.

Awesome video editing Dave!
A day to remember for sure.

The locals sure showed us Florida boys a good time and some serious speed. Someone had to lead right?! we just followed ;-)

Just waking up overlooking VIR as I type, should be another 2 fantastic days.
Mancation continues.....
