Eddie, too bad we din't have a rear view camera from our last session!
Any video of me from Sunday? Love that rearview shot, pretty cool and brings a whole new prespective to the track.
Here was the first session Sunday in foggy conditions!
I thought I was in a bowl with M&M's there for a second with all them pretty colors on the track!!
After lap 5 it gets funny as Eddie pushes me to overdrive the overheating tires and won't pass me until I pretend to lose it in T16 LOL
Both hungover and basically exhausted after 5 laps. Not sure why we kept driving 2:23's, maybe we were having fun? Can't remember....

I'm uploading 3 videos right now. No video from Sunday, ran out of memory as I didn't have my computer with me.
I'll set up the rear camera again for next event, is really cool. Would be priceless this weekend with you and Clarke playing Tokyo Drifto

No, I started in front of you with the strippers and Cup cars. That is me in front of you. On lap 4 the red/black cup car decides he has had enough of me and Sebastian and waves us by before 7, Sebastian misses turn-in and loops it, I am on the inside of the red/black car and since I cannot turn in I go straight into the marbles and then turn into the grass where there is a big hole then shoot out rally style, 4 wheels off the ground leaving behind my brake duct and new GMG header. That is me limping along that you are then passing after you missed hitting Sebastian.
Here is my video same session, I found some clear air except all the 996 spinners

Drifting
Guys, 48 hours was a blast! I had so much fun!!! Night sessions were awesome, I never had driven Sebring at night before. I had done PBIR and Homestead but they are well lit tracks so you can see what's coming. Some parts of Sebring was pitch black and all you could see were tail lights 
I was screwing up Bishops every time since I couldn't see nothing.
I joined the 360 club of Deputy Dog, went off the track 2 times besides that
Broke my fastest lap times (down to 2:24.7). Tried R888's for the first time. Went through a fresh set of front pads.
I've never drifted so much in my life on a track before, I was over steering a lot these 4 days. I almost lost it couple of times on T17, scary. I don't know whether the track was really greasy or R888's actually suck as everyone said.
Here's a video of the 2nd session. Sorry for the almost accident Peter, the car didn't turn in at first, then lost the tail Randy, if you watch after 8:10 you will see when I really catch up to Grady and go for his rear bumper until I drift off the track at the end of the video. 
The video of the spin is to follow I also learned 3 things:
-Never drive when you're angry, I was so mad when Grady didn't give me a point by
-You don't know when the TC will kick in so be prepared (end of the video where I go off)
-Just because of the guy in front of you has the same car and can enter a turn without braking doesn't mean you also can (hence the spin)
This weekend was epic!!!

I'll take you shooting again and you can rent that fully automatic machine rifle thingy again and have 30 seconds of fun on me ;-) and you can help me pick a shot gun.

We need to go shooting again, need to buy some goodies.
Times are tough and need protection at home. Nothing less than the Barrett
Just to make sure that is REALLY dead.
Shot gun is the way to go. Shot gun and a hand gun loaded and ready to go on the night stand. Shoot first ask later.
