Default Shannonville track video EU Autowerks


Great turnout, and some interesting side by side acceleration.

Click on the arrows at the end of the timeline to view the video in full screen.

Enjoy!

Mosport is going thru quite a transformation. What was once a sewer pipe
between turns 9 & 10 is now a massive concrete tunnel.

This was a compilation video, majority of the footage taken at Shannonville,
very little from TMP. That was Courtney driving on that lap, he was testing the setup cause I've been complaining of too much understeer in the 90 deg corners.
Should be remedied for next season. fyi We may be heading to TMP this Sat.

Another shot taken last Wed.

Thanks Eshel. Not parking the car until the snow flies, or until the roads get salted, but have mentally ended the track season... a last kick would be nice for sure though, hmm. And it would be nice to see a 4.0 in the flesh.

Good times yesterday, even though the 4.0 did not show up.
A friend came out with his 996 track car, and handed me the keys.
Also drove a 2010 Nissan GTR. One car made me nauseous after 3 laps, the other was Absolutely Brilliant!

what do you think of the GTR in comparison to the 996 race car... two different cars... can you articulate?

GTR is the only car I have ever driven that made me nauseous after driving for 3 laps, I'm not sure why I was under the impression everything was off.
Very Heavy, definitely understated hp, disconnected driving experience, save your money. Glad I drove it.

996 race car, Brilliant!
Most fun you can have for 40k.
Problem is where do I store the trailer.
